If you had to pick one location in your home where you would predict that mold was most likely to show up, which would you choose? While the basement might be a popular pick, your bathroom should also be high on the list. With the abundance of moist air, wet towels and water pipes, the main factor for mold growth is almost always available. This is why you should take care to keep your bathroom dry as possible. Mold can harm your health, especially if you have allergies.

So what should you do? Don’t leave wet items lying around in piles on the floor, instead hang them to dry. Make sure that there is good ventilation in your bathroom, and if there is a window in your bathroom, opening it up occasionally for airing out the bathroom is a good idea. Install a good ceiling fan in your bathroom that will remove the steam quickly.
