Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWire) -- 05/12/2020 --Minch Professional Cleaning Services, LLC, is advising on how best to disinfect homes to prevent the spread of illnesses like COVID-19. As one of the leading house cleaning companies in Doylestown, PA, the Minch Professional Cleaning Services team has the skill necessary to ensure that every home is properly cleaned, sanitized, and disinfected and educating customers on the critical differences between the three procedures.

It's commonly understood that "cleaning" means eliminating any risk of disease transmission from the surface, but this has led to a false sense of security. From a technical perspective, cleaning only involves removing dirt and debris from surfaces, but this doesn't necessarily mean that those surfaces are free of bacteria or viruses. These pathogens can only be eliminated by sanitizing and disinfecting a surface.

Sanitizing a surface reduces the amount of bacteria on it to levels considered safe, according to official guidelines. In many cases, bacteria still live on the surface, but there's a decreased risk that someone will become sick by touching the surface. By contrast, disinfection involves using EPA-approved chemicals to kill viruses and bacteria living on the surface.

Surfaces should first be cleaned before being sanitized or disinfected, as dirt and debris can lead to an increased number of pathogens living on the surface. However, it's essential to draw a distinction between which surfaces require sanitizing and which need to be disinfected, since there is some concern that overuse of disinfection chemicals contributes to the rise of antibiotic-resistant superbugs.
