Forget door handles and toilet seats - the most germ-infested objects in your home are your TOWELS


  • Main problem is that towels retain moisture,allowing bacteria to breed 
  • And they are used in the most germ-ridden areas of the house 
  • Researchers analysed tea towels for bacteria that causes food-poisoning
  • Sickness-causing bacteria detected in 90% of towels and E. coli in 26%
  • Hygiene experts warned bacteria can also transfer from bathroom towels
  • Diseases like athlete's foot can be passed on to different family members 
  • Washing at 90c is the best way to get rid of the germs, say doctors.
