Now that we’re at the height of cold and flu season, you might want to take a closer look at what’s living on your keyboard. A series of studies called "Germs in the Workplace," found that the following four office surfaces had the most bacteria (in this order):
- Phones
- Desks
- Computer keyboard
- Computer mouse
Obviously these are items you touch all day, every day. Germs and dirt from your hands and mouth get transferred easily on to these items, and vice-versa, making them breeding grounds for harmful bacteria.
