No matter how well you clean your bathroom, bacteria are not that easy to drive away.
Therefore, you should absolutely avoid the following mistakes in the bathroom.
Is your toothbrush near the toilet in the bathroom?
If so, you'd better leave them somewhere else.
Because every time the toilet is flushed, bacteria spread in the air.
But that's not the only mistake people make in the bathroom *.
Leave the toilet lid open
It should actually be a matter of course, but fold
down
the
toilet lid
in the
bathroom
.
This not only prevents small drops of the rinse water including bacteria from spreading in the bathroom, it also looks much better.
Do not wash your hands
Also part of the routine: wash your hands when you have been to the toilet.
The same applies if you put on
contact lenses or make-up
.
All day long we touch doors, railings or other things.
Therefore, innumerable germs adhere to the hands.

Always use the same toothbrush
Replace your toothbrush regularly.
Because bacteria can adhere to it, which can cause inflammation of the gums and colds, among other things.
Most health insurance companies recommend
a new toothbrush
every three months
.
Also, do not store the toothbrush in the bathroom cabinet or upside down in the toothbrush tumbler.
Using the cell phone to go to the toilet
If you take your cell phone into the bathroom, bacteria from the toilet can settle
on the device
.
You then carry these around the apartment with your mobile phone and distribute them.
You should not take your cell phone with you, especially in public toilets.

Store make-up and shaving equipment openly
Store make-up and razors in the
bathroom cabinet or in the toiletry bag
.
Otherwise, the bacteria will spread over the utensils.

Don't change towels
You should change the towels in your bathroom at
least
once a week
to prevent germs from multiplying.
Do not ventilate
If you have the opportunity, ventilate your bathroom regularly.
Also important:
dry towels and do not store make-up or razors wet.
The moisture and heat in the bathroom allow bacteria to spread easily.
