The company I once worked for had 40(ish) years ago a phone sanitising 
company come in.  They went around every desk sprayed the mouthpiece and 
wiped it dry with a cloth. It was the same cloth used on all phones. 
Possibly much more of a risk of contamination than not having it done at 
all. It was a one off possibly as a lot of staff complaining it was a 
complete waste of money.
