Your Bathroom Sink and Counter
You use your bathroom sink to wash your face and brush your teeth, but if you’re not cleaning it or its surrounding counters on a daily basis, you could be doing yourself a disservice.
According to recent research conducted by TravelMath, bathroom counters in hotel rooms harbored an average of 1,288,817 colony-forming bacterial units—and they’re cleaned professionally on a regular basis.
That means your home sink could have even more bacteria. Still, there’s no huge need to fret: A daily wipe down with a bleach-and-water solution can kill off those bad bacteria in an instant.
