How to Clean Your

Keyboards are one of the dirtiest parts of your computer. They collect dust, dirt, and oil from your hands, and they can also harbor bacteria. This can lead to problems with your keyboard, such as sticking keys or even key failure.

To keep your keyboard clean, you should clean it regularly. Here are some tips on how to clean your keyboard:

1. Unplug your keyboard. Before you start cleaning your keyboard, unplug it from your computer. This will help prevent you from damaging the keyboard or your computer.

2. Use a can of compressed air. Compressed air can be used to remove dust and dirt from your keyboard. Hold the can of compressed air about 6 inches away from the keyboard and spray it into the nooks and crannies of the keyboard.

3. Use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. If there are any stubborn dirt or grime on your keyboard, you can use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean it. Be careful not to use too much rubbing alcohol, as it can damage your keyboard.

4. Let your keyboard dry completely. After you have cleaned your keyboard, let it dry completely before you plug it back in. This will help prevent damage to your keyboard.

Additional tips for cleaning your keyboard:
