I use the library extensively and love to read. I have noticed that the books looked dirty. I can imagine all the people handling them, no wonder they are dirty. So, I grabbed my hand sanitizer and squirted it on the library books, took a paper towel and rubbed it in. I was amazed at the amount of dirt that came off those books. Now every time I get books, I use hand sanitizer on them before reading. This kills germs and makes the book covers shine like new. Happy reading.

I always use hand sanitizer to wipe over the table and infant chair (they are always clean, but I like to make sure) when my family and I have a coffee after shopping in my local supermarket.
I get Talking books rather than print, but this sounds like something I need to start doing. Some of them smell pretty strongly of cigarette smoke.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who cleans the books! I use anything from Mrs Meyers Lavender cleaner, white vinegar (both natural cleansers/antibacterials) to Windex or alcohol. Just depending on what I grab first. I buy a lot of books at used book stores, thrift shops, library sales and borrow from my library too. I clean every book that comes into my house!
Another good use for hand sanitiser is as a foot deodorant! Works a charm!
