Why You Should Avoid Keeping Your Toothbrush In The Bathroom

Most people keep their toothbrush on or by their toilet sink or in cabinets with the bathroom.

Here’s why you need to remove your toothbrush from anywhere in your bathroom.

Presence of bacteria

Bathroom surfaces harbour bacteria even after frequent cleaning with different detergents and disinfectants.These can come  on toothbrushes and other surrounding surfaces, making them unsanitary and potentially causing illness.

Closeness to the toilet

The toilet is where you pee and excrete. Water splashes and airborne particles can contaminate your toothbrush next to the toilet.This happens when sinks and toilets are near one another in the bathroom, which is usually the case.

Humid nature

Bathrooms are often humid, especially without windows.Placing a toothbrush in a humid room or even a cabinet can promote bacteria and mould growth, potentially causing illness and infection.
