9 Items You Overwash And 9 Others You Rarely Clean
3. Towels vs. bath mats

For good hygiene, switch towels after three to four uses. Rotate two so one dries fully, meaning a wash about every two weeks. Ignoring this invites musty smells and makes whites dull.
Bath mats need even closer care. Constant dampness plus warmth and low light encourage mold and bacteria. Wash mats at least weekly to keep the bathroom sanitary.
