HI McKinley!

We all want to avoid getting sick…obviously.  Naturally, our focus tends to be on keeping our hands as clean as possible through washing them frequently or using some form of antibacterial gel.  Well, when was the last time you cleaned your cell phone if ever?  Research shows that the bacteria present on our cell phones is equivalent to the bacteria found in a toilet!!! This shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise if you think about all the places your phone has been, the hand you’ve shaken, the time you didn’t wash your hands after you sneezed and let’s not forget when we hand it to our kids or our nieces and nephews to play a quick game.   Now that you’re totally grossed out and will never look at your phone the same way again, read the below article, or just start cleaning your phone AND it’s case once a week.  How to clean your phone may differ so I would encourage you to check your owners manual for specific instructions.  I used an alcohol swab to clean mine…this morning 🙂
