A member asked:
I am thinking of starting up a child care in my home. how long do all those kids' germs survive on furniture and toys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CHILD CARE: Having a child care facility demands that your place is always clean. If one child is sick, others get contaminated easily due to close contact while playing and air born infections. Sanitizers come handy and cleaning the whole place is a must!
