Texting on the toilet
When nature calls, germs (including fecal matter!) are released into the air and can land on surfaces… like your phone. Even if you wash your hands before leaving the bathroom, that bacteria is still stuck on your screen. Leave your phone behind the next time you make a trip to the restroom.
Using bar soap
Sure, soap cleans hands, but bars are actually breeding grounds for germs when they’re used by multiple people. Opt for liquid soap formulas instead.
