Research by CloudZero found that your headphones, laptop, computer mouse, keyboard, and phone could be harbouring thousands of colonies of bacteria.
The dirtiest devices of all are headphones, where an average of 1,073 bacteria thrive in the warm, damp environment around your ears.
Some laptops, meanwhile, hold twice as many bacteria as a public bin and are home to more mould than any other piece of tech.
To clean your device thoroughly, use an electronic-safe cleaning solution or disinfectant.
For keyboards, first turn the device upside down and shake gently to remove the debris which can be the perfect breeding ground for mould and bacteria.
When cleaning your phone, be sure to first remove the case and brush away any visible dirt or debris.
