One of the often-overlooked victims of our constant computer usage is our keyboards. Look down at your keyboard right now and say aloud the last time you cleaned it. There’s no reason to be embarrassed — dirt, dust, food crumbs, and hair build up in keyboards over time. It’s inevitable.
As part of spring cleaning, now is the perfect time to give your keyboard a good clean and a fresh start. Not cleaning your keyboard is not only unhygienic — it can eventually damage your keyboard and reduce its performance. It may sound like a daunting task, especially if you have a particularly gnarly keyboard, but we promise it won’t take long and will be well worth it in the end.
