I bleach whatever I can bleach and wash towels and sheets in hot water if I can't bleach them. Just another measure to make sure. My little girl has had mrsa a few times so just trying to keep things as germ free as I can.

Bleach anything I can. I even put some in sink when I do dishes. But I am OCD like that.

Nope.

Oversterilization and too much cleaning/disinfecting is suspected to be the biggest cause of the development of allergies, weak immunity, and mutation of germs into forms a lot worse than what they once were.

I'll take my chances just washing things the way people have for 100 years. Hot water, a little detergent, done.

NO, I hate the smell of bleach, its so gross. Plus me and SO always shower before getting into bed, a dirty ass in my bed is one of my biggest pet peeves, so its not like my sheets are that bad. I change them everyother day too.

I have colored towels, so no, i don't bleach those. I do have a set just for company though and i wash them seperatly from our towels. I think its gross to dry my face off with something that someone else used to dry their ass off with. Me, SO and the kids all have our own towels, SO's is blue, mine is purple, DD's and SD's are pink and my SS are green.
