Taking a chance…

On traveling?

Well if you must….be prepared to fight the flu bug. While staying in a hotel or motel here are some things you should do.

Don’t assume that your room has been sanitized. It’s your health. Start by using an antibacterial wet-wipe and wipe down doorknobs, light switches, remote controls, temperature controls, (while wiping temperature controls make sure they work.) If you have a room service menu in the room don’t forget to sanitize it as well.

Don’t overlook anything else that everyone touches such as drape or window rods, room phones, in room menus, pens, handles on dressers, remote controls etc. Now while you’re at it how about checking for bedbugs. Look for small brown stains checking under sheets and mattress pads too. It may also be a good idea to remove the bedspread at night. All too often beds do not get the cleaning attention you expect.

By the way, I forgot to mention wiping off the ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign on the door. You might also wipe off the flush handle on the toilet and handles on the sinks. If I missed anything you can fill in the blanks. Have a safe and healthy trip.
