Guidelines for Disinfecting Computing Equipment

This article details the recommended guidelines for properly cleaning and disinfecting university owned computing equipment, which includes (but is not limited to):

  • Desktop, laptop and tablet cases
  • Monitors/screens/displays
  • Keyboards and mice
  • Printers and Multi-function copiers
  • Office Phones

Use alcohol-based wipes or sprays containing at least 70% isopropyl alcohol, and let the surfaces dry thoroughly before use.

*** DO NOT use sprays directly on the surfaces of electronic devices - instead spray onto a soft lint-free cloth, then use the damp cloth to wipe the surfaces.
