HERTFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND, March 01, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Offices across the UK are said to be stocking up on their cleaning supplies as the norovirus threat continues to spread through the work place. Click Cleaning have seen a significant increase in their office related cleaning products since the rise of the norovirus epidemic.
It has been reported by The Health Protection Agency that the freezing weather we have been experiencing in Britain could lead to an increase of norovirus cases. Ensuring most bacteria are killed using antibacterial sprays is vital when fighting against the epidemic, especially when working in an office.
The most contaminated area of the office is the computer, which can be one of the most important pieces of equipment in the office. However, it has been said that on average a computer can have 400 times more bacteria than the average toilet seat. This is very disconcerting if you want to ensure the office remains norovirus free and healthy.
Scott Harris, Director at Click Cleaning commented: "Computers are one of the most contaminated areas of the office and home. How often you clean the case of your computer is determined by the environment it operates in and if it's situated in an office, a clean every seven months is recommended.
"We have experienced a great surge in demand for our computer and office cleaning equipment, presumably because our customers understand that maintaining a clean working environment is imperative for good health. With the Norovirus spreading across the country we have been anticipating a higher demand for our cleaning supplies and so took the measures required to ensure all our customers could be catered for."
Click Cleaning also offer their customers with cleaning advice when it comes to properly cleaning a computer and the keyboard. These cleaning guides ensure best practice is always promoted and safety is always a high priority.
Before any cleaning commences turn off the computer and disconnect any plugs and try to use water or a highly diluted solution when cleaning. When cleaning the computer remember never to spray a liquid onto the components, instead spray the liquid onto a cloth first and then apply it to the device.
