The secrets of hygiene: wash and protect towels properly!
The hygiene expert "Madame Sweat" recently given important information on social media for the correct handling of towels. She vehemently warns of putting used towels immediately after drying in the laundry basket. The reason? These wet towels create an ideal environment for mold formation and unpleasant smells because they are thick and need to dry for a long time. Instead, Madame Sweat advises that the towels only dry in a ventilated place before they are washed. This is crucial to improve hygiene in your own four walls, as explained in her post.
The dangers of bacteria and washing tips
Another central topic is the high number of bacteria that remains on towels after use. These can include faecal bacteria and harmful germs that quickly multiply in moist conditions. Mixing towels with other laundry increases the risk of "germ contamination", which is why it should be washed separately. Hand and tea towels from the kitchen are also particularly susceptible to E.-coli bacteria and should be paid to extreme attention because they can transmit potentially dangerous germs, confirmed the hygiene expert.
By following the right washing and drying techniques, not only the lifespan of the towels can be extended, but also hygienic cleanliness can be achieved- a simple but effective step towards a healthier home.
