Dirty Offices!

Sep 13, 2023

Here are some of the dirtiest things in an office.

Breakroom sink faucet handles. These are touched by everyone who uses the sink, and they can harbor a lot of bacteria.


Microwave door handles. These are also touched by many people, and they can get contaminated with food particles and germs.


Keyboards and mice. These are often neglected when it comes to cleaning, and they can accumulate a lot of dust, dirt, and germs.


Desk phones. Desk phones are another often overlooked item when it comes to cleaning. They can harbor a lot of bacteria from people's hands and faces.


Vending machine buttons. These are touched by many people, and they can get contaminated with germs from dirty hands.


Doorknobs. Doorknobs are another high-touch surface that can harbor germs.


Refrigerator handles. Refrigerator handles are touched by many people, and they can get contaminated with food particles and germs.


Coffee makers. Coffee makers can be a breeding ground for bacteria if they are not cleaned regularly.


Watercoolers. Watercoolers can also be a breeding ground for bacteria, especially if the water is not changed regularly.


Toilet seats. Toilet seats are often thought of as being the dirtiest things in an office, but they are actually not as bad as some of the other items on this list. However, it is still important to wash your hands after using the toilet.

It is important to regularly clean and disinfect the dirtiest areas in your office to help prevent the spread of germs and illness. You can do this yourself or hire a professional cleaning service.


Here are some tips for cleaning and disinfecting the dirtiest areas in your office:



  • Use a disinfectant wipe or spray to clean surfaces.
  • Pay special attention to high-touch surfaces, such as doorknobs, faucet handles, and light switches.
  • Clean and disinfect the microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker regularly.
  • Empty the trash cans daily and wash them out with soap and water.
  • Encourage employees to wash their hands frequently, especially after using the restroom.
  • Hiring a commercial cleaning company such as Enviro USA
