2. Bathroom floor

Bathroom floors are exposed to soap residue, hair, soap, and other contaminants, so it’s no surprise it’s one of the dirtiest places in your bathroom. The tiles and grout between them can collect all the things mentioned above, leading to mildew and mold growth if not cleaned and dried properly.

But that’s not all; cleaning experts point out that you should pay unique attention to the toilet floor, especially across the base of the toilet. This spot has a tendency to harbor the most bacteria and germs because of drips and splashes, making it one of the dirtiest places in your bathroom.

A thorough cleaning routine of hoovering, mopping, and sanitizing this surface is key to maintaining a hygienic bathroom. So, next time you clean the bathroom floor, don’t forget about this often overlooked spot.
