If you do the kids laundry or have access to the washer, just wash them regularly. Problem solved.

But them yourself. Most families use a towel then eash it once a week or when dirty.

It's true that most people don't fully wash off germs (feces, etc.) after using the bathroom. That's why you always use something like a Kleenex to open the doorknob.


How is it “most environmental” to have single use washcloths which then get laundered? Total waste of water.

PS—I never use “something like a Kleenex” to “open the doorknob”, and am perfectly healthy. You sound pathological.


I'm a physician. I do not Kleenex everything, I do not wipe down everything, and I use a hand towel. I'm around sick people every day and use hand sanitizer and wash my hands where appropriate. I have probably one of the strongest immune systems out of anyone I know.

Either bring your own towel to work, or negotiate a towel or roll of paper towels into your contract. It’s a home, so most people wouldn’t even think about having paper towels in the bathroom.

This is so dumb, and so is the person who wrote it.
