If your toothbrush falls on the bathroom floor do you use it again or throw it out?

[_universo]

sounds like bs to me... as long as the bristles are in good condition and you clean it from time to time I don't see why you would have to change it in 3 months

that's the thing, the bristles tend to get damaged after some months, but I guess that will depend on the kind of toothbrush you're using.

ill clean it thoroughly

 

[Grape Soda]

Just clean it. Its my bathroom
Your mouth is dirtier than whats on your floor anyways.

If humans are these sensitive with Bacterias then Humans wouldn't last these long and would be wiped even before we evolved to what we are, so pick it up and sterilized it and use it again.

i have electric tooth brush and paste

 

[Saint Ren]

I have an electric tooth brush and I replace the brush head every two months, if I dropped it I would throw the brush head away the bathroom is just too germy and my immune system is not the best

 

[Bryant]

Disinfect and use it again ofc. No wonder the fish are all choking on plastic.

 

[Lilac]

I would throw it away.

 

[carol danvers]

I just wash it and carry on with my day, this has happened to me more than I care to admit

 

[Chiharu]

Throw it out. My bathroom floors ain't clean

 

[rising dawn]

I'll just throw it into my dishwasher and sanitize it and then reuse it, there's no need to throw it away.

And for people saying that toothbrushes shouldn't be kept in bathroom because of bacteria from toilet spray, just get one of those toothbrush head covers, problem solved. I have one from Daiso and it keeps the head of my toothbrush covered. I also keep my toothbrush on the side of the sink away from the toilet.

Throw it out. There's shit bacteria flying all over your bathroom. Which is why you should never keep your toothbrush in the bathroom in the first place.

you know if you keep the toilet lid down at all times after each use you wouldn't have that problem, right?

 

[fromisEJel]

Throw it out. But I have never drop it anyway

 

[Pepper]

you know if you keep the toilet lid down at all times after each use you wouldn't have that problem, right?

It’s not like I live alone. How am I supposed to know if my sisters put the lid down or not at all times?

There’s also occasional dick appointments, the fuck am I supposed to know their flushing habits.

 

[Egoísta]

Nonononono I’m throwing that bitch awayyyy I’m not touching it

 

[BlessMeAchoo]

I'd throw it out, I'm not putting anything from the floor in my mouth. May as well just lick the floor if you'd be willing to use the toothbrush again
