Tech gets nasty
I don’t want to alarm you, but look down at your keyboard or take off your phone case. Oh, the filth! Let’s fix it.
- You can make a cleaning solution with vinegar or alcohol, but why? I use premoistened electronic wipes — specifically, this big pack from Care Touch. They’re cheaper that way and last a long time.
- For TVs and bigger monitors, these wipes from Weiman work like a charm.
- This gel dust cleaner is a simple, easy way to get the junk out of your keyboard, printer, camera or anything else with small openings.
- Your computer, TV and other gear have small ports that collect dust and dirt. Cotton swabs leave fuzz and lint, so try a phone-cleaning kit.
- Grab a ball of Blu-Tack and press it into your earbud speakers. Pull it away, and all the junk inside comes out with it.
