Default Dirty Cell Phones

I have heard many times that our cell phones are one of the dirties things we come in contact with each day. I have started wiping mine down with alcohol pretty regularly. I also do the same with the keyboard on my laptop. Do any of you clean things like this?

Yes, I do the same. I make sure that my things are clean, especially my personal things that I use every now and then.

I sometimes change my cell phones cover and keypads.

I don't really clean up my cellphone that often as I am the sole user. As for my keyboard, I keep that pretty clean because once the dust goes in, it's pretty hard to go underneath the keys and the compressed air doesn't seem to do such a great job.

I clean my cell phone, keyboard, remote control and all of the light switches in the house regularly. These things are often overlooked but they are big germ carriers!

I overlook the cleaning of my cellphone since I am the only one using it. Maybe I need to practice the habit of wiping it with alcohol also. With my keyboards, it is cleaned everyday.

That you had the drink quite early today!

I keep my mobile clean simply by wiping it with clean cloth & not disinfecting them. I hope it isn’t a huge health issue.
