4. The toothbrush holder
Yes, the place where you keep your toothbrush is one of the dirtiest places in your bathroom. This is because it’s one of the most underestimated and frequently overlooked spots that can harbor a surprising amount of germs. When was the last time you’d cleaned your toothbrush holder? If you can’t remember, there’s a sign that yours is most likely packed with bacteria and germs.
Though it looks innocuous, toothbrush holders collect harmful microorganisms from other areas of the bathroom, like the drain (when washing hands or face), toilet (when flushing), towel holders (when you hang dirty clothes), etc.
Similar to other surfaces that are the dirtiest places in your bathroom, you can turn it into a hygienic spot by regularly disinfecting your toothbrush holder. Wash it with hot, soapy water, and sanitize it with a disinfectant spray or wipes.

I would say the handle of the commode flush and the doorknobs on the door and linen closet door.
This article was great but you forgot about the soap dispenser. After you use the toilet you then touch the soap dispenser to get soap to wash your hands. The germs that build up on that! Yuck! That needs a regular cleaning.
Great & thorough information on the Bathroom
Cleaning and disinfection.
Wonderful recommendations.
Thank you
Try putting ONE article on a page. You can’t even find where it ends. You have so many articles on here I can’t read the actual article. Terrible setup
What are the Issues in the Bathroom …. ?
The dirtiest spot is probably the bathroom sink. If you have teenagers….then who knows! Just put on a hazmat suit and carry Lysol spray in one hand and bleach in the other hand! I know it’s dangerous to mix chemicals, but so is sharing a bathroom with a teenager!
Excellent advice!
