9. Bathroom surfaces
When you flush the toilet, a thousand microbes and bacteria “fly” around all the bathroom surfaces. That’s why it is also recommended to put your toothbrush in a cabinet to avoid contamination. A jaw-dropping fact that researchers found is that almost 70% of toothbrush holders are full of fecal particles due to flushing. Yikes! Can you imagine? Cleaning becomes even more important when you consider that bathroom sink faucets typically contain 6,200 germs per square inch, some of which can remain on hard surfaces for weeks.
You have to disinfect your sink at least once a week if you’re not a cleaning maniac like me, who does that every two days. How often do you disinfect your household items? Tell us in the comments.
