Cleanliness has always been and will continue to be one of our top priorities. Since the outbreak of COVID19, we've increased our standards and made sure our cleaning crews and property inspectors are using cleaning protocols and disinfectants as approved by the Center for Disease Control. In particular, we are taking special care to disinfect items which may meet numerous hands such as light switches, door handles, and remotes. You can find the CDC protocols and a list of approved disinfectants we are using at the following links: >>Cleaning Standards: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/disinfecting-your-home.html >>Approved Disinfectants: https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/list-n-disinfectants-use-against-sars-cov-2-covid-19 >>Helpful info to prevent the spread of COVID19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/how-covid-spreads.html
