This includes tables, counters, toys, diaper changing areas, etc. This 3-Step Method helps maintain a more sanitary child care environment and healthier children and staff.\nDefinitions:\nSanitizers are used to reduce germs from surfaces, but not totally get rid of them. Sanitizers reduce the germs from surfaces to levels that are considered safe.\nDisinfectants are chemical products that destroy or inactivate germs and prevent them from growing. Disinfectants are regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).\nRationale:\nCleaning removes a large portion of germs, along with organic materials - food, saliva, dirt, etc. – this removal increases the effectiveness of the sanitizing/disinfecting.\nRinsing further removes the above, along with any excess soap.\nSanitizing or Disinfecting kills the vast majority of remaining germs.\n3-Step Method\nClean – Spray with a dilution of a few drops of liquid dish soap and water, then wipe surface with a paper towel.\nRinse – Spray with clear water and wipe with a paper towel.\nSanitize or Disinfect – Spray with proper dilution of bleach and water (see chart from \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://doh.wa.gov/sites/default/files/legacy/Documents/8340/970-216-Disinfect-en-L.pdf\" \\t \"_blank\" \u0014DOH Disinfecting and Sanitizing with Bleach Guidelines\u0015 below), leave on surface for a minimum of 2-minutes, then allow to air dry or wipe it dry with a paper towel.\nStorage\nOur cleaning and sanitizing supplies are stored in a safe manner in the\n\u0003Click here to enter text\u0004 (where).
