How do you clean up throw up and diarrhea?

With paper towels and water
Use the right equipment and chemicals
Leave it to dry
Sweep it into a dustpan

The correct answer is: Use the right equipment and chemicals

Cleaning up throw up and diarrhea requires more than just paper towels and water, as these only contain the mess temporarily and do not fully disinfect the area. Leaving it to dry is also not a proper solution, as it can spread bacteria and viruses. Sweeping it into a dustpan is not recommended, as it can also spread the mess. The best solution is to use the right equipment and chemicals in order to properly clean and disinfect the affected area.
