If you have this item in your bathroom, you need to throw it out right now

It is the largest habitat of bacteria and dirt, and contact with it can even lead to skin diseases.

It is in almost every bathroom, and it shouldn't be [Alamy Limited]

The bathroom is a specific place in the house. Due to the high temperature and humidity, it is difficult to keep it clean. And often, we, completely unconsciously, make it difficult.

One example is this item. It is in almost every bathroom, and it shouldn't be.

It is the largest habitat of bacteria and dirt, and contact with it can even lead to skin diseases. It is better to get rid of it from the bathroom, because contrary to appearances, it is not practical or necessary at all.

No one thought that this item was so dangerous. It's the bath mat. Yes, that fluffy, nice underfoot mat that we all love. It's one of the dirtiest places in every home, and many people have no idea about it.

Each of us wants the bathroom to be clean and pleasant. We regularly clean the floors, toilet and shower. But we forget about one thing. Fabric rugs are a real breeding ground for bacteria and moisture. They lie there, collecting dirt and germs, and we carelessly put our feet on them after a bath. This is not good for our health.

Time for a change! Instead of a rug, opt for something more practical. Maybe a foam mat? It is easy to clean and will protect the floor from excess moisture. Thanks to its anti-slip properties, it reduces the risk of falls. In stores, you will find a lot of colours and patterns that will emphasise the character of your bathroom.

Another option? Bamboo or teak mat. They will work well in any bathroom, from minimalist to tropical. Easy to keep clean, they will add elegance.
