Clean and disinfect high-touch surfaces like door handles, switches, taps and phones daily. Encourage handwashing when entering the home and keep shoes outside. Open windows for fresh air and sunlight. Wash linens and towels regularly. Choose washable, hygienic wall finishes that can be wiped clean without damage, especially in kitchens and bathrooms.
Prepare the surface by cleaning dust and grease, repairing cracks and treating any damp or fungus. Apply a suitable primer and let it dry. Then apply two coats of anti bacterial interior paint as recommended, allowing drying time between coats. Ensure good ventilation during and after painting, and allow the paint to cure before wiping.
Look for interior emulsions that are washable, stain-resistant and offer anti-bacterial or anti-fungal properties as stated by the manufacturer. Low-VOC options support better indoor air. For humid areas like bathrooms and kitchens, anti-fungal coatings are useful. Nerolac interior emulsions include hygiene-focused options suitable for various rooms, including kitchens, bedrooms and children's spaces.
Set a routine for wiping high-touch surfaces, washing hands and cleaning kitchen counters after cooking. Keep bathrooms dry and ventilated to prevent mould. Empty dustbins daily and wash cleaning cloths often. Let sunlight into rooms and air out bedding. Keep pets groomed and clean their areas regularly for overall hygiene.
In kitchens, focus on washable walls, clean counters and proper food storage. Bathrooms need ventilation, anti-fungal coatings and dry floors. Bedrooms benefit from regular linen changes and fresh air. Entryways should have a shoe rack and sanitising station. Children's rooms need washable walls and frequently cleaned toys and surfaces.
Beyond cleaning, maintain good indoor air circulation with open windows or exhaust fans. Control humidity, as damp conditions encourage microbial growth. Repair leaks and damp walls promptly. Consider hygienic wall coatings for easier cleaning. Follow health guidelines from authorities during outbreaks, and encourage family members to maintain personal hygiene habits consistently.
