Despite how regularly you clean your bathroom, it will always be the dirtiest place in your home. Simply put, it’s where you use the toilet and take a shower so it’s a breeding ground for bacteria. But you might be surprised to learn that the dirtiest item in your bathroom isn’t your toilet – it’s actually a common shower essential that you probably use every day.
Recent studies have found that loofahs that are staples in most bathrooms are hiding a huge amount of bacteria. Unlike your toilet or sink, loofahs tend to stay wet and sit in warm and humid conditions after you’ve used them which makes them a hotbed for bacteria and microbes.
