Instructions: The County Health Department recommends the following solution for cleaning cutting boards, counters and other surfaces in your kitchen, which are used for preparing or eating food. It is inexpensive, environmentally friendly, and very safe. 1 tsp. Chlorine Bleach (Clorox) 1 quart Water Mix in a spray bottle, and use to clean kitchen surfaces. When using on cutting boards, be sure to wipe and then air dry before sliding wooden
cutting board, back into counter top. (This solution is effective for 3 days only, so be sure to make new solution often).

Note: using vegetable oil, once
per month, on the wooden cutting board, is a sufficient treatment to keep the wood preserved. Rub a
small puddle of vegetable oil into the clean surface, using a paper towel, or your hand, then let sit for about ten minutes. Wipe excess oil from surface, then spray with bleach solution, wipe and let air dry.
