How often do you wash your bed sheets? Once, twice a week or procrastinate the chore for months? According to various studies over the years, it has been found that many diseases like pneumonia, appendicitis and gonorrhea can be caused due to dirty bed sheets.
Our body excretes fluids and oils while we are asleep which attract dust mites. Faecal matter and dead bodies of these dust mites and our dead skin cells can cause severe allergies and asthma.
That’s why it is always recommended to wash your bed sheets or bed linens at least once a week. It is better to wash them daily if you are sick or dealing with some health issue.
