Microbiologist Jason Tetro explains that laptops can harbor a significant amount of dirt, grime, and bacteria, with some sources claiming they contain up to 400 times more bacteria than a toilet seat. While a dirty laptop may not directly make you sick, it can transfer viruses and bacteria to your fingers and mouth, increasing the risk of infection. Additionally, the buildup of dust and dirt can cause overheating and shorten the lifespan of your device. To clean your laptop, turn it off, wipe the screen with a damp microfiber cloth, use compressed air to remove debris from the keyboard and vents, and regularly wash your hands to reduce the transfer of germs.
