When the grill’s hot and the sky's about to light up with fireworks, there’s one thing that often goes overlooked at 4th of July cookouts: clean hands. At B Clean Professionals, we believe that every celebration should be joyful and safe. That’s why we’re reminding
Harrisburg hosts that hand hygiene is just as important as the BBQ rub.
🖐️ Why Handwashing Deserves a Spot on the Menu
Cookouts are one of summer’s best traditions—but they’re also prime time for food contamination. In warm weather, bacteria can multiply quickly, especially when raw meats, fresh veggies, and eager hands all share the same space.

To keep things safe and celebratory:
Wash your hands before and after touching meats, produce, or condiments
Use warm water and soap—and scrub for at least 20 seconds (Here’s a quick refresher from FoodSafety.gov)
Dry with a clean towel or disposable paper towel, not your jeans!
Keep soap and hand sanitizer handy near your food prep or serving areas
