Airbnb hosts are going to be doing a lot of cleaning.
The company recently released a 38-page-long handbook detailing updated guidelines for cleaning and sanitizing properties. The guide was released as part of Airbnb’s Enhanced Cleaning Protocol initiative, which was developed with help from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The new protocol, which was originally announced in April, is now available to help hosts through the process and the specific steps to properly clean their properties.

Hosts who enroll for certification will be required to adopt a number of health and safety measures, such as wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) when cleaning between guests, and only using disinfectants approved by “regulatory authorities."
