[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 268191, member: 1233"] Paper money is actually proven to have more bacteria and yuckies than the inside of a public toilet!! All you can do is wash your hands or use hand sanitizer after you pay and before you eat if you are out. I don't go to fast food restaurants if they do not have a separate person handling money and handling food. Even my drinks have to be handled by someone not handling cash. I personally find the spray bottle with alcohol MUCH more useful than the little bottles of sanitizing gel. They are also good if you ahve a pen leak in all over something. You can buy little packets of individual hand wipes (or take a handful from Chik father in law A or Kfried Chicken) and put them in lunch bags, purses, virtually anywhere. But if you are taking a few kids somewhere it is more economical to use the spray. Everyone needs to clean their keyboards with alcohol on swabs or those computer cleaner wipes. Mice should be cleaned on top where your hand goes with alcohol or a sanitizing wipe. Telephones, even cell phones, should be wiped on a regular basis. It is also a great way to utilize a child with germ-o-phobia to have them use disinfecting wipes (like the lysol ones or the clorox ones) on light switches, door knobs, window latches, faucet handles, etc.... That way they can feel they are helping keep themselves healthy. Oh, if you have long nails then you need to carry a nail brush (I have never seen one in a public restroom) or cut your fingernails short so you can clean under them more often. Run toothbrushed and nail files through the dishwasher. I ONLY use glass/crystal nail files. They are easier on your nails and are fine to put in the dishwasher. I had a couple that had pretty flowers painted on them and the paint came off but it didn't affect the nail file. These nail files run $5-$10 bucks per file, but they last forever and can be sanitized while emery boards can't and metal files will rust. When cleaning counters or tables, do NOT use the wet dishrag!!! Use a spray like fantastik or 409 or whatever and use paper towels. Use a separate paper towel for each section of counter and the table. (If you let the cleaner stand on dried on food for a minute or two it will come off easily = saving elbow grease. You just have to put a little puddle of cleaner around/on the spot.) Can anyone tell I am a germ-o-phobe? [/QUOTE]
