    Just as important is to make sure it dries out fully between uses. Bugs like nothing better than dampness.
    No longer a spouse, or trailing, but MSE won't allow me to change my username...

    What about them? Viruses need to invade living cells to reproduce and most can only survive hours outside a host (with the exception of Norovirus and C. Difficile).


    Unless you are planning on chewing on the dry mop, I don't think you need fret too much.

    OK you bought a fancy name which cost £3+ a head rather than £1 for a head on a stick.

    I was thinking change once a month or more if only used once a week.

    Another option is chuck it in the washing machine(rinsed first optional).
