There are many different household appliances in a modern apartment.
However, some of them may contain hidden dangers and pose a health threat.
Allergist-immunologist Elena Paretskaya shared the details, as reported by Doctor Peter .
Toaster and hair dryer
When using these devices, there is a risk of burns or electrical injuries.
The expert reminded that the toaster should be connected to the power supply only during its use. After that, the device must be disconnected from the power supply.
It is noted that if safety precautions are not observed, there is a risk of burns or electric shock.
Care must also be taken when using a hair dryer, especially if it is used in a bathroom near water.
It is also not recommended to leave the device turned on on soft surfaces.
In addition, you need to ensure that the ventilation hole is not blocked.
Refrigerator and dishwasher
These devices may also pose certain health risks.
The specialist explained that the dishwasher is quite humid and warm water is used.
Therefore, if you keep the device closed and do not dry it properly after use, this can create favorable conditions for the growth of bacteria.
The same applies to the refrigerator. This device can also act as a source of dangerous bacteria, which are also resistant to low temperatures.
Therefore, the expert advises to adhere to the rules for storing food.
It is also advisable to use containers, separate products on shelves and monitor expiration dates.
