You wash your body everyday, how about your bath towels? Do you hang your towel on the rack all week and keep re-using it? After you shower, you assume you have eliminated dirt and germs from your skin but the process of rubbing that towel on your wet body collects dead skin cells and germs that stick to the wet towel. Those cells serve as food for bacteria to grow in all those nooks and crannies. Even worse is if the towel is shared among different household members. What if someone has pink eye or some kind of skin infection and the bath towels are shared? The best suggestion is to use a clean bath towels everyday and them in hot water and dry them in the dryer to kill germs. De Hart Plumbing, serving Manhattan Kansas, Junction City Kansas and Wamego Kansas.
