Use your Rowenta steam iron to sanitize your money

Money is the virtually the filthiest stuff on earth. It's full of germs, narcotics, dirt. skin cells, etc. We come up with clever ways to store it and that adds to the problem of us handling it with our hands. Millions of unclean digits touch it. Many bank employees eat up sick time due to handling money. So how can you launder your money and make it safer for your use until it changes hands?

Well, as I've made known in other articles, heat kills germs. But you can't put fire to paper money. And it's not practical to heat sterilize coins. So how can it be done by the average individual? Out comes the steam iron. Paper money is fairly tuff. Actually paper money is made of cotton fibers. So it holds up remarkably well to water. So, its make up lends itself to a treatment of sanitizing by your lowly steam iron.

Place your steam iron to its highest heat and steam setting. place your paper money on a soft surface like an ironing board or towel. Place the iron directly on the money and iron as you usually would. use the steam button to create more steam. Turn the money over and repeat on that side. Let the money cool and place in wallet or purse. Granted, your purse or wallet may be dirty. But you have killed millions if not billions of microbes that were previously on your money. And less has got to be better.
