Bacteria are mainly concentrated in the steering wheel, air conditioner, gear lever, back seat..., so clean the car regularly.

According to a study by scientists at Queen’s University (USA), there are more than 700 types of bacteria in cars. If cars are not cleaned regularly, people in the car are at risk of infection.

Dr. Boi Kha, Department of Pulmonology, National Children's Hospital, said that cars are an environment where many types of harmful bacteria accumulate. Bacteria in cars can cause a number of diseases such as diarrhea, dermatitis, rashes or respiratory diseases. Children are very susceptible to these bacteria.

Air filtration system

ProfessorStephen Holgate, an asthma expert at the University of Southampton, warns that air pollution in cars is 9-12 times higher than outside. Polluted air from outside is sucked in and accumulated inside through the car's air conditioning system. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly check the car's air filtration system, especially in the summer, when the heat will create more toxic substances.

Eliminate food waste

Garbage is a place where bacteria accumulate in the car.

Garbage is a favorable environment for bacteria to gather. If you only clean normally, you cannot completely remove this bad smell. Therefore, after cleaning up the leftover food scattered in the car, you spray a layer of specialized disinfectant to remove the bad smell as well as the germs that cause disease.

Eliminate the unnecessary

Children are often hyperactive and curious. Therefore, any item in the car can become a toy for them. Children often suck and hug strange objects, affecting the respiratory tract and skin diseases. More dangerous is that when there is no one to control, children will easily swallow small objects in the car.

You should regularly clean up the items in the car, throw away old and unnecessary items to keep the environment in the car clean and hygienic.

No smoking in the car

Smoking in the car, even if the air conditioner is on and the windows are open, the smell of the cigarette will still remain and cigarette butts may be scattered in the car. Cigarettes are harmful to everyone, not just children. Therefore, you should not smoke in the car.
