The 6 Most Gag-Inducingly Dirty Spots in Your Bathroom — and What to Do About Them

Do you clean your shower curtain when you clean your shower? For many of us, the answer is probably no. Shower curtains often get overlooked in the cleaning process, but they see a lot of moisture, bacteria, mildew, and germs. This can be made even worse if you don't leave it open to dry after each shower. But the good news is, you don't have to use very much elbow grease to clean them. Most plastic and fabric shower curtains can be washed in the washing machine. For plastic, throw in some towels too, as this can help with the cleaning process. For fabric shower curtains, just make sure you follow the instructions on the label.
