Madison Apartment Living: Sick Roommates

With cold and flu season in full swing, and many Madison WI apartment renters sharing living spaces, quarantining a sick roommate can be nearly impossible. Many Madison students (especially) live in close quarters within their Madison WI apartments or rentals, and even a sick roommate will probably need to use shared living spaces at some point.

Here are a few tips on what to do should you have a sick roommate:

1. Disinfect your Madison WI apartments

Spray items down with Lysol or by washing with antibacterial soap and water. The most important places to start will be in the apartments kitchen and shared living space. Make sure to wash glasses, pots, pans and dishes and wipe down countertops more frequently.

2. Clean your your bedroom in the apartment

Wash your sheets and pillow cases, towels more frequently and keep the room ventilated.

3. Disinfect the apartments bathroom

Keep all your toiletries separate and disinfect your Madison apartments sink, shower and toilet

4. Be Prepared

Stock up on medications, vitamins, and other immune boosting products. Also make sure to wash your hands as much as possible, especially after using communal items in your Madison WI apartment or rental.

By following these few simple and easy tips, should help limit the spread of cold and flu within your Madison apartments, and should help prevent you and your Madison roommates from getting sick in the first place!
