I'd be more put off by having to dry my face on a towel that had seen everyones genitals and snotty noses!!

There are just 2 of us at home. I change sheets every 2 weeks or more often when sick. Towels twice a week. Bath mat once a week and tea towels and dish clothes every day.

I sleep in a double bed, on my own, as does my husband as it suits us fine. Being honest, I change both beds once a fortnight figuring that they are clean enough. I have people staying quite often and have to change the beds more often when they do. Annoying if they only stay for one night but I would hate to sleep in a bed that someone else had slept in.

Towels, probably averages every two to three days except in the downstairs loo which my grandchildren use so I change them once a week but also before and after they visit. Tea towels get changed every day and we use paper towels to dry our hands in the kitchen.

tea towels.. I use about 4-6 a day.. I don't even dry pots with them lol.. I use them as oven gloves and to dry the table and polish the work surfaces

Our bed is washed once or twice a week and kids beds weekly. Towels are weekly or more often if needed

I watched a programme about something similar. The biggest things that are left dirty or full of germs is dish clothes, sponges & tea towels. :eek:

My bedding is changed weekly, Unless OH comes home filthy just collapse on the bed (Which he does often) Then it might be changed twice a week.

Bath towels, every two days.
Hand bathroom towels, Daily
Tea towels daily (Every night)
Kitchen sponge, 1 every week.

I was more meaning the general one I have in the bathroom for hands/face. Have one bath towel for drying after showers/baths and another hand towel for use after washing hands. Both go in the weekly wash with the bedding.

beds get done about every 2 weeks in rotation, there are 5 to strip wash and remake so not easy especially in the winter or when it's raining etc. and you have other thing to do, towels we all have our own bath and face towels but I try to do them once a week, again not always possible in the winter but \i try, bedding can wait a bit longet cause we all have baths etc daily so are "clean" when we get into bed.
