Why shouldn't you put a lid on your toothbrush?

Surprising? So how can you keep it as hygienic as you can if the lid is not a solution?

According to Laura Abeer, researcher and study organiser: “Using a lock on the toothbrush does not protect it from being touched by bacteria, but it does create a more suitable environment where bacteria grow because it is a damp area inside the cover.

Once he uses the brush and puts it on the lid, he does not allow it to dry, so there is always moisture inside the cover. ”

Okay, there's another fact that can be discussed. Every toilet is always wet, then the shower factor, steam... is the wet spot. Such reasons may lead you to believe that the lid is a good protector of the brush, but it is not.

If you travel, the best advice is to use a lid with small holes so that at least you can make your brush dry, but at the same time you keep it from dirt along the way.

What about home? It must be covered, but the best way to save it is to have enough space. This enables the brush to dry but also to be protected from bacteria outside./Telegraphy/
