Thereafter, mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a bucket, dampen a clean cloth in the solution and squeeze out the excess, and wipe all pieces down.

For cleaning the mouse, remove the tracking ball in it and clean it with the cloth dampened with the vinegar solution. The book also instructs about cleaning the device's outer-covering so as to get rid of both dirt and pesky fingerprints.
