Whether you want to protect against COVID-19 or just give all your gadgets a deep-clean while youre stuck at home, nows the ideal time! Heres how you can safely clean your tech gadgets, without damaging anything.

Prior to the coronavirus, companies like Apple advised consumers not to use anything harsher than a damp cloth and some elbow grease to clean their gadgets. Unfortunately, that wont kill bacteria or viruses, including the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19.

In light of the recent outbreak, Apple has changed its tunewhen it comes to disinfecting your iPhone:

Using a 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipe or Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, you may gently wipe the exterior surfaces of your iPhone. Dont use bleach. Avoid getting moisture in any openings, and dont submerge your iPhone in any cleaning agents.

Many of the instructions for cleaning gadgets prior to this announcement still stand, as well, though. Damp cloths, soap, and elbow grease are still great if you need to remove stuck-on grime or dirt. To disinfect, though, you have to use a product that contains enough alcohol to kill potentially harmful microbes.

When it comes to hand sanitizer, the CDC advised:

Laboratory data demonstrate that 60 percent ethanol and 70 percent isopropanol, the active ingredients in CDC-recommended alcohol-based hand sanitizers, inactivates viruses that are genetically related to, and with similar physical properties as, the 2019-nCoV.

Regardless of manufacturer instructions, if you want to effectively disinfect, you need a cleaning spray of at least 60 percent ethanol (like Dettol) or rubbing alcohol with a 70 percent concentration or more.

However, theres a small risk this might damage your hardware; youll have to decide whether its worth it.

You can clean your smartphone with disinfecting wipesor use rubbing alcohol to disinfect the screen and chassis. The biggest danger is that you will accelerate the wear on the oleophobic (oil repelling) coating on the display.

This coating wears away over time, anywayif youve had your device for a while, much of it is probably already gone. Fortunately, it can be reapplied with surprisingly good results, if you want to restore that shiny new phone look.

If you keep your phone in a case, you can remove it and wash the case thoroughly in hot soapy water. While doing so, you can also use an alcohol-based disinfectant on the rest of your phone. You should never submerge your phone in water or any other liquid, despite its waterproof rating.

To protect your phone or tablet (particularly the screen), you should avoid harsh cleaners, like bleach, window cleaners, creme cleansers, or any other detergent-based agents. These will definitely destroy the oleophobic coating, and might even leave your screen streaky or foggy.

The same advice applies to tablets, as well, as theyre essentially just large smartphones.

You can clean a laptopinside and outif you have the right tools. You can use compressed air to blow out the dust. Isopropyl alcohol or ethanol will disinfect the keyboard and other high-touch surfaces. You might want to be a little more careful with the screen, particularly if its plastic, as alcohol and other chemicals might destroy the finish.

A variety of cleaning products (including purpose-built brushes)will make this job easier. If youre particularly worried about heat dissipation, you can try to remove dust inside the chassiseither by opening it up or blasting it out. If youre cleaning a MacBook, make sure youre informedabout Apples unique cooling system.

Since the majority of modern touchscreens are glass, you should be able to use an alcohol-based cleaner on a hybrid or convertible laptop.

Keyboards are fairly resilient, so most of us dont replace them often. This also means theyre usually covered in germs, caked with grime, and filled with fluff and hair. You can clean most keyboards piece-by-piece.

To get started, remove the keys and clean them with a cloth or brush. Use compressed air to blast any dust or crumbs out of the chassis.

You can buy purpose-built brushes and hand vacuums, but these are unnecessary if you remove the keycaps for a deep clean.

Isopropyl alcohol and ethanol will help kill potentially infectious microbes. Some people go nuclear and put their (wired) keyboards in the dishwasher. Provided you dry it out thoroughly before you plug it back in, thisshould work. However, you might damage the finish or keys, so we dont recommend it for everyone.

Warning:Never put a wireless keyboard that features an integrated battery in the dishwasher!

Cleaning your keyboard isnt only good for hygiene, it might even improve your typing experience. Since grime builds up on the switches, removing anything that makes your keys feel mushy should make your keyboard feel new again.

You can follow many of the same cleaning procedures you would use for a keyboardto sanitize your computer mouse, too. Because your mouse is frequently in contact with your hand, alcohol-based cleaners are great for killing bacteria and other invisible nasties.

For those hard-to-reach places, dip a Q-tip in some alcohol and get to work. A wooden toothpick might also help you scrape any grime out of nooks and crannies. The key is to lightly clean your mouse often to prevent dirt from building up and discoloring the plastic.

In-ear headphones, like Apple AirPods, can get gross, fast. Fortunately, there are many great tricks for cleaning them, including a damp cloth, Blu Tack, and cotton balls. As always, isopropyl alcohol is the ideal solution if you want to fully disinfect.

Headphones are different, as they dont sit inside your ears. How you clean them ultimately depends on the material the ear cups are made of. Make sure you consult the manufacturers specific instructions to avoid damaging your headphones.

RELATED: The Ultimate Guide to Cleaning Your Icky AirPods

In many cases, a quick wipe around the ear cups with a damp cloth should be enough to spruce things up. If you want to disinfect them, use isopropyl alcohol on the solid surfaces, buttons, and plug (if theyre wired).

If youve never cleaned your game controllers, youre in for a shock. They can get really filthy, and dirt and grime can hide in all sorts of places. You can usealcohol and Q-tips to deep-clean your game controllers.Use a toothpick to pry dirt out of those hard-to-reach places.

If youve spilled soda on any of your controllers, theyre probably sticky. You might be able touse a plastic straw and some rubbing alcohol to fix spongey buttons without opening the shell. Just saturate the buttons with alcohol, and then agitate with the straw.

RELATED: How to Safely Clean Your Nasty Game Controllers

Your computer case also needs a regular cleaning, but for different reasons than your smartphone or game controllers. PCs are dust magnets, and dust hinders heat dissipation. Since heat kills computer components, its a good idea to remove as much dust from your PC case as possible on a regular basis.

This is no small undertaking, and you have to take care not to damage any components in the process. Also, make sure youre grounded to avoid static discharge.

Warning:Never under any circumstances should you use a vacuum to clean a computer case.

For best results, clean individual components (like the graphics card) outside the case. Take this opportunity to perform any other necessary maintenance, like replacing the thermal paste,or installing additional fans, RAM, or storage.

After the case is clean, you might want to think about where its located. If its on the floor, it might be sucking up more dust than it would on a shelf or desk.

RELATED: How To Thoroughly Clean Your Dirty Desktop Computer

Most monitors and TV screens arent designed to be touched. This is why theyre rarely made of glass, which means theyre far less resilient than a smartphone or tablet.

To avoid permanently damaging your monitor, you should clean it only with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning sprays, like Windex, or anything that contains detergent. These chemicals can (and will) damage the surface of the screen, leave streaks, or even make the display foggy and difficult to see. Plus, once you damage the surface, theres no going back.

Some monitors and televisions have cooling fans inside. Depending on its technology, dusting the back, sides, or top of your monitor can really help with heat dissipation. Since heat is the enemy of all things electronic, removing dust buildup should help extend the life of the display.

Once upon a time, most computers and games consoles were made of off-white plastic. Over the years, these machines have discolored terribly due to the bromine in ABS plastic. Fortunately, you can use a solution called Retr0bright to restore retro consoles and home computers to a like-new appearance.

It uses around 10 percent hydrogen peroxide to bleach the plastic, and you do have to disassemble the machine. Youll also need safety equipment, like gloves and goggles, and a well-ventilated space in which to work.

RELATED: How to Clean Old, Yellowed Plastic on Retro Computers and Game Systems

Youll spend less time cleaning your gadgets if you dont wait until theyre caked in grime to do it. Its also a lot more hygienic to clean them regularly. This is especially true for gadgets like smartphones, tablets, and laptops, as theyre regularly exposed to your hands.

If you were concerned enough to read this far, you also might want to stop answering phone calls the old-fashioned way.

A Spanish National tells his own story in India where he was forced to hide in a hotel in the face of assaults on foreigners.

THE Spanish national was a 38-year-old chef from Barcelona who went to Indian to check first-hand the progress of NGO Unstoppable, a fund he set up to help poor children who could not afford to go to school.

Manuel de Luca, a 38-year-old chef from Barcelona, arrived in India on January 17 to check the operation of the NGO Unstoppable, and along with 60 other foreign tourists found India initially warm and welcome. However with the news of the Coronavirus sweeping the country things soon changed to be sour.

The school was in Bodh Gaya, in the northeast of the country situated in a paradisiacal archipelago in the middle of the Indian Ocean, already close to Thailand, the Andaman and Nicobar islands.

A kind of Canary Islands, but with a large extension of a nature reserve in which tribes still live shooting with arrows at outsiders, completely isolated from the rest of the world, he summarised by phone.

Like many tourists, and in view of the information that came to him from Spain, De Luca decided to stay in Neil, one of the smallest islands in the archipelago, where not a single case of Covid-19 had been registered.

However, on the night of the 18th, the owner of the inn where he was staying made him leave his room with other tourists and were met at reception by a group of armed policemen, with very bad manners, then summoned to leave the island in a boat thatwas leaving that same morning.

No papers, no documents, nothing: all to taxis and all to the ship, he recalls.They had been taking tourists out of hotels on all the islands and they gathered us on that boat that took us to the main island, Port Blair, and from there directly to the airport, always escorted by the police.They pushed us armed with submachine guns and sticks andtold us move !, move !, like stinking cattle,says De Luca, who recorded the moment in a video.

At Port Blair airport they were forced to buy a plane ticket to Calcutta or Chennai, which was leaving an hour later. While we were waiting in line we had to put up with airport cleaning staff spraying like window cleaners, he recalls.

Finally, and after speaking with the Consulate General of Spain, they decided to go to Chennai, because there were fewer cases of Covid-19 than in Calcutta.

The consulate advised Calcutta because there were more people and perhaps more flights to leave, but almost the entire group opted for Chennai, explains De Luca. Since this article there has been no more contact with Manuel de Luca, we will continue to scour the news feeds for more information, so please check back daily for updates on this story.

A big-hearted cleaning firm are sanitising the streets of Ayr for free.

Flamingo Exterior Cleaning have been voluntarily blasting high-risk areas around the town centre to kill off the coronavirus.

The team have been tackling spaces used by the public including Ayr Hospital, the High Street and care homes.

Robin Barclay, who runs the business with Malcolm Bennett, says the decision to hit the streets was an easy one.

Robin told Ayrshire Live: It has always been important for us to be as involved in the community as possible, supporting events and local initiatives.

As the current crisis unfolded we felt it was a natural step, for a company that offers professional sanitisation already, to help where possible by sanitising the most vulnerable areas and areas of high human interaction such as handrails, crosswalks, doors, handles, bins etc.

We touch these things much more often than we probably imagine.

Flamingo Exterior Cleaning are based at Mosshill Industrial Estate in Ayr.

The bulk of their work usually involves window cleaning, pressure washing, roof cleaning and graffiti removal.

But since the coronavirus outbreak, the company has seen a spike in the amount of residents who would like their wheelie bins given a deep clean.

And after dark the specialist team have been hitting the town in a bid to save lives.

Robin said: We have dedicated time for three vans to provide free cleaning and have sanitised exterior areas throughout Ayrshire.

So far this has included Ayr Hospital, the High Street, Sandgate, Boat Vennel and many others.

Most of this work is carried out between 7pm and midnight as it is quieter and safer to carry out the work.

Robin says their work has been well received by the public.

And the 30-year-old insists they are doing it all for the good of the community.

Robin added: The sanitisation of these areas is strictly non profit it is about humanity and our duty to care for our community.

We have had an amazing response from members of the public, professional bodies and other businesses.

We have to thank other local businesses and the wider community for the tremendous work.

We feel extremely proud of the community spirit and everyone's dedication to fighting the virus.

The Government published a list of key workers on Friday 20 March 2020 whose children will continue to be cared for at school amid thecoronaviruspandemic but the British Cleaning Council raisesconcernsthat cleaners are not included.

The Government has requested that all schools provide optional care for a limited number of children, which includes critical and key workers, stating on Gov.UK:

If your work is critical to the COVID-19 response, or you work in one of the critical sectors listed below, and you cannot keep your child safe at home then your children will be prioritised for education provision:

If workers think they fall within the critical categories above, they should confirm with their employer that, based on their business continuity arrangements, their specific role is necessary for the continuation of this essential public service.

Gov.UK website

There is further information on whichjobs are included detailed under each category, but cleaners are notably absent in the initial version. This means that parents working in the cleaning sectorare not eligible to apply for childcare provision from schools which jeopardises their ability to work under the social distancing protocol.

The British Cleaning Council (BCC) has responded to this omission with the following appeal:

AS we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic together as an industry, it is my duty to keep you informed about how the British Cleaning Council (BCC) is campaigning to ensure that people within our industry are viewed as essential critical or key workers who are needed more than ever to ensure we not only maintain but elevate hygiene standards in the UK in order to come out of this crisis quicker.

The BCC and its members have the staff, products, equipment and machinery to reduce the risk to human health by providing & maintaining clean, sanitised and safe premises and environments. Our regular day to day cleaning staff and our specialist and periodical industrial and window cleaning staff all have a major part in improving the environmental hygiene of the UK.

Even in lockdown, premises and particularly education, retail, healthcare establishments and care homes will require more frequent sanitisation regimes at what may well be a premium time to do so. Our cleaning staff throughout the UK have the expertise, training and knowledge to carry out sanitisation, hygiene, clinical or decontamination cleans so it is essential that the workforce are kept available by being identified ascritical or key workersby the Prime Minister and the British Government. Additionally, our cleaning product suppliers need to remain at work to provide the consumables and products to clean with, from wipes and paper products, to disinfectants, sanitisers and cleaning products in general. And our machinery and equipment providers need to produce and supply specialist cleaning equipment that our staff can use.

The cleaning industry represents nearly 4% of the UK workforce and if we do not identify our people ascritical or key workersthen hygiene in the UK will drop with the effect that the virus may flourish.

Support the BCC and all its members and keep our people at work maintaining the hygiene of the country and providing vital sanitisation services.

On behalf of the BCC, may I thank you for your support in these difficult times as with your support our staff can carry on with their invaluable work in order that together we can defeat this awful disease.

Paul K Thrupp

Chairman British Cleaning Council

The City of Edmonton has issued a notice to the company involved in a scary incident outside Edmontons Stantec Tower in October.

Two window washers were working on a swing stage on the outside the tower when the equipment began twisting in the wind.

The equipment smashed into the tower several times, breaking multiple windows.

One of the workers was thrown over the rail and left dangling by his safety harness five storeys above the ground.

It was later determined the City of Edmonton did not issue a business licence to Aurum Window Cleaning, the company involved.

That prompted the City of Edmonton and Occupational Health and Safety to launch separate investigations into the incident.

Story continues below advertisement

The municipal investigation has wrapped up, with the city issuing a notice to Aurum.

According to a spokesperson, when they received this, they applied for a business licence, which is currently pending while we wait for further documents.

That notice did not include a fine or penalty against the company, though the spokesperson said one could be levied if the company does not provide the required paperwork.

This is all very, deeply troubling to me, said Alberta Federation of Labour President Gil McGowan.

We have a business that has violated the rules at both a municipal and provincial level. So I would expect investigations from both the city and the province and, frankly, I would expect at least fines, if not something more serious.

The company could have faced a municipal fine of up to $500.

McGowan believes Aurum should not be granted a business licence.

It sends a message to other employers that they can be fast and loose with the rules and they can get away with it.

On Wednesday, after months of trying to get a hold of Aurum, Global News was able to contact the companys CEO.

Story continues below advertisement

He said everything has been resolved and claimed the business does have a licence in Edmonton but that it is listed under a numbered company. He did not provide further details.

The provincial Occupational Health and Safety investigation is ongoing.

In an emailed statement a spokesperson said, Occupational Health and Safety continues to investigate the window washer incident and cannot discuss details of active investigations.

OHS has two years to complete its investigation. McGowan says he hopes it results in penalties.

Through their negligence, this is a company that put the lives of its employees at risk, but they also put the lives of the public at risk.

The employee left dangling has returned to work.

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On January 7 local time, the annual international Consumer Electronics Show (CES) opened in Las Vegas. As the largest consumer technology industry event in the world, CES attracts thousands of manufacturers from all over the world to participate every year, becoming an important platform for the release of new products such as mobile digital products, automobiles and smart homes.

This years CES was worth seeing. In addition to 5G technology, driverless, blockchain and other hot trends, as an old player of CES, BONA robot launched its own brand coayu, and launched the world's first commercial sweeping robot BLNE01, focusing on the eyes of many on-site technology giants and media people.

It is understood that the new commercial sweeping robot BLNE01 is equipped with the world's first x-matching global navigation system . It can be applied to complex and diverse indoor business environment, such as strong and weak light, strong and weak texture, etc., with a mapping accuracy of 99.9%, In terms of duration endurance, the commercial sweeping robot has a built-in large capacity battery, which can complete the cleaning coverage of 1000 once charged, meeting the cleaning requirements of most commercial spaces.

Compared with the ordinary household sweeping robot's dust box of 400-500 ml, the capacity of the commercial sweeping robot's dust box has increased by more than 12 times, and the 6L super large capacity dust box is extremely rare in the sweeping robot, which is more than enough to deal with the garbage in the commercial place. More intelligently, the user can reserve the robot cleaning time independently according to the site characteristics and cleaning needs. In addition, it also has the functions of low-power automatic recharge and breakpoint continuous cleaning, improving overall user experience.

Liu Tong, deputy general manager of BONA, said that most of the commercial cleaning robots on the market are bulky and cumbersome heavy equipment, which requires a lot of manpower for maintenance. The commercial cleaning industry is also facing problems such as rising labor costs. For example, the annual salary of cleaning personnel is about 60 thousand dollars per person. The operating costs have increased year by year, and the profit space of enterprises has been further compressed.

The advantages of coayu commercial sweeping robot are: first, its weight is lighter, small and light, it can be lifted easily by hand, and its simple design style enables it to be naturally fit into various business environment; second, it supports wireless remote control and mobile app control, no need for artificial intervention, it can realize intelligent cleaning, and reduce a lot of manpower for the enterprise cost. Third, higher cost performance. Compared with the high cost of manpower, the price of coayu commercial sweeping robot will greatly reduce the burden of the enterprise and save a lot of operating costs.

Different from the home scene, the complexity of the space structure and environment of the commercial scene makes its technical threshold much higher than the home sweeping robot. How to keep efficient cleaning in the commercial space, and ensure superior user experience, has been a major difficulty of the coayu commercial sweeping robot. For this reason, coayu has investigated thousands of business places and potential users, repeatedly verified the machines with the survey data, and gained a more comprehensive understanding of the commercial space.

At the same time, coayu commercial sweeping robot optimizes the cleaning system, achieves a new level of the industry in terms of actual suction, up to 30 times of ordinary household models, achieves a one-time cleaning rate of more than 90% and ensures low noise, which is a amazing indicator in the industry.

Looking around the sweeping robot industry in the market, there are only a few home sweeping robot enterprises that transboundary to the business scene. coayu is a rare brand with both home and commercial sweeping robot development and manufacturing experience.

Courage to cross-boundary commercial sweepers comes from our strength. BONA, the parent company of coayu, entered the field of sweeping robots in 2012. It has been deeply involved in the industry for 8 years, producing and developing sweeping robots for more than 60 brands in 45 countries and regions around the world. The company has obtained more than 140 authorized patents and applied for more than 300 domestic and foreign patents. With years of industry accumulation and independent innovation ability, coayu's product line can achieve full coverage of household and commercial use, and its products range from traditional sweeping robots to window cleaning robots and even lawn mowers.

In the future, coayu will make full efforts in the field of intelligent cleaning, adhere to the needs of users, explore diverse functional requirements, and continue to provide a complete set of cleaning solutions for business scenarios and home environments.

Global Window Cleaning Cloths Market 2019-2024 Business Insights and Sustainable Growth in Respective Industry - TechAnnouncer

How to lose weight may well be an aim for a lot of people in January, especially after a period of indulgence, and there are certainly plenty of diets and diet plans to choose from to stimulate weight loss. During tonights instalment of Lose Weight and Get Fit with Tom Kerridge, Tom and his multiple volunteers take on the dreaded first weigh-in to see how they got on following Toms diet and exercise plan.

It's the first full week of the challenge and Tom is back in Gloucester, the city where he grew up, to exercise and cook alongside his diet and fitness gang.

Window cleaning brothers-in-law Dan, 37 and Alex, 34 volunteered for the challenge because of health concerns and a normal day sees them tucking into a big, calorific breakfast and grabbing fast food between jobs.

Dan commented: I wanted to lose weight and be healthier for my kids, I want to be able to have a run around in the park with my boy, too many times I go Im too tired, I cant do this, I cant do that.

Most days the mens' day begins with a trip to a drive-through, starting their day with a greasy and unhealthy breakfast.

I think the reason we have naughty breakfasts is that we enjoy the rubbish food, it tastes nice explained Alex.

Accessible and cheap, justified Dan.

Typically their day wouldnt have many exercises incorporated into it, but since joining the challenge the pair had made a promise to change.

What winter dieters miss most is comfort food, Tom explained. A small salad just doesnt cut it when its freezing cold and dieters really fancy a fry-up or a nice curry.

DON'T MISS

As team chef, Tom wants to get his team off to a good start on calorie counting - and familiar, comforting dishes is the way to go.

Among his lower-calorie recipes this week are fish fingers with sweet potato wedges, red pepper, and spinach pasta bake and a bean stew with sausages, which he describes as one of the best inventions ever probably just behind the wheel.

Personal trainer, Adam, is working closely with Tom and his weight loss gang, and has created a simple stamina and strength workout that slimmers can follow at home.

Adams workout takes about 45minutes. Its half aerobics exercises for the heart and half resistance movements for strength, said Tom.

You dont have to do it all in one go. You can do half the exercises in the morning and half in the evening, added Tom.

So, how did they get on at the first-weigh in?

At the beginning of the weight loss challenge, both Alex and Dan were concerned with their weight and unhealthy eating habits.

But since following the diet and exercise plan, constructed by Tom Kerridge, the brothers-in-law have lost 17 pounds between them, thats 4kg each in just a week.

How did they manage to lose weight so quickly?

Tom revealed that as well as following the diet and fitness plan, the pair have ditched their morning drive through in favour of much healthier breakfast choices, which set them up for the rest of their day.

You dont have to ditch comfort food to count calories, but making small changes to your every day routine can improve your health before you know it, said Tom.

How did Tom Kerridge lose weight originally?

Over the last five years, Tom has gone through an incredible weight loss transformation and he revealed he lost 12 stone using a simple happy diet plan to shed the weight. What was the diet?

The 46-year-old celebrity chef has shed an incredible 12 stone and has transformed the way he eats with the dopamine diet - a diet he is famed for. What is the dopamine diet?

According to BBC Good Food, the dopamine diet encourages slimmers to lose weight, while simultaneously boosting mood too. It is often referred to as the Tom Kerridge diet, as he boosted the popularity of the diet, in recent years.

This diet is all about increasing levels of happy hormone dopamine in the brain at the same time as shedding pounds, the website said.

There are multiple versions of the diet, however, all are based around food that is thought to boost dopamine levels in slimmer.

These can include foods such as:

Dairy foods such as milk, cheese, and yogurt

Unprocessed meats such as beef, chicken, and turkey

Omega-3 rich fish such as salmon and mackerel

Eggs

Fruit and vegetables, in particular bananas

Nuts such as almonds and walnuts

Dark chocolate

Most versions of the diet recommend avoiding alcohol, caffeine and processed sugar, while some also recommend cutting out or severely restricting starchy carbohydrates.
