The Dirtiest Places in Your Home Aren’t What You Think

🪥 Toothbrush & Holder

Your toothbrush may look harmless, but it’s often stored close to the toilet. Every flush can release microscopic particles into the air, which can land directly on toothbrush bristles. The toothbrush holder itself is one of the most overlooked germ zones, staying damp and collecting bacteria and even mold. Rinsing toothbrushes, letting them dry upright, and replacing them every 3 months is essential.

🚪 Light Switches & Door Handles

These are some of the most frequently touched surfaces in the home, yet they’re rarely cleaned. Every family member—and guest—touches them multiple times a day, which means bacteria and viruses can spread from one person to another almost instantly. A quick wipe with disinfectant once or twice a week can drastically cut down on contamination.

🖥️ Bonus: TV Remotes & Keyboards

Remotes and keyboards often slip under the radar. We snack while using them, touch them with unwashed hands, and rarely clean them. As a result, they accumulate crumbs, skin oils, and bacteria, becoming silent germ carriers.
