How to Clean the Refrigerator

Series Summary

Cleanliness around the home is mandatory for healthy peace of mind as well as physical health: having a germ-free and tidy home reduces the risk of unwanted parasites and illness-causing bacteria from forming and causing serious problems. For those with children, the importance of maintaining a clean and germ-free home becomes even more important, as a child's immune system requires a little more helping from its environment than adult systems. In the home, the most vulnerable area for germs and bacteria is undoubtedly the kitchen, where food, both raw and cooked, can attract insects, bacteria and other germs that no one wants lurking around their families. Additionally, disorderly kitchens, refrigerators and cooking devices can cause serious health issues if not properly kept up and disinfected. It's not difficult to maintain a clean kitchen, especially considering the amount of products on the market that are easy to acquire and provide a variety of ways for homeowners to clean and disinfect their surfaces, utensils, cooking devices and other prone areas around the house.

"Hello! My name is Atiya, and on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to demonstrate how to clean a refrigerator. Starting from the outside, remove your magnets and things so you can wash it, and apply antibaterical agent. On the inside, before you put any cleaning product in there, take all the food so you won't contaminate it and start from the top down. Next, remove your shelves so you can clean behind them. The last part of cleaning your refrigerator is to wipe it down with water so that you can take out all the chemicals out of your refrigerator. The freezer is the same as the refrigerator, except for you might want to defrost it. You'll defrost it and then you'll clean it. Also, remove the food the same as you do with the refrigerator. This is Atiya and thank you for watching Expert Village. "
