I have previously mentioned that I love Ziploc bags. I also enjoy teasing my mother (just a tad). After pretending to listen to the latest thing she learned from Dr. Oz, I decided to humor her and check out the show. Wouldn’t you know it, but the day I checked out he was talking about germs!?!? And I actually learned a good tip to use when traveling…

Experts recommend using a Ziploc bag as a makeshift glove when handling the remote or using a chlorine antibacterial wipe and wiping down every button, crack, and crevice, spending extra time on the power button, which is touched the most.

I don’t so love the idea of cleaning every nook and cranny of the remote, but I think using a Ziploc bag is a great idea! In fact, I even tried it on my recent trip to Arizona…with my mother, natch…
