Dirty Laundry? How Nasty Germs Survive in Your Washer

Washing Machines Are Teeming With Bacteria That Contaminate Your Clothes, Hands...

Your dirty laundry may actually be even dirtier after you wash it. That's because experts say washing machines are teeming with bacteria that find their way onto your clothes -- and then onto you.

Our smallest items -- our undergarments -- are the biggest culprits because of the presence of fecal matter and the different types of bacteria it can carry.

Charles Gerba, a professor of microbiology at the University of Arizona, has done extensive research on the germs that fester in our washing machines.

"If you wash a load of just underwear, there will be about 100 million E. coli in the wash water, and they can be transmitted to the next load of laundry," Gerba said.

"There's about a tenth of a gram of poop in the average pair of underwear," he added.

That's why I don't wear underwear.

gross.... imagine the laundromat. ewwww

OPP = other peoples poop

I use the "Sanitize" cycle ..... (wonder if it really does anything ) lolol

Gross to think about. This is why I like having my very own bathroom.

A litle poo never hurt anybody

Less than a buck, problem solved. Jeez.

Problem solved, provided all of your clothes are white.

they make color safe bleach now too.

Or just don't shit yourself.

Women don't have this problem because they neither fart or shit.

"Dirtier than before you wash it" - that is very unfortunate. What's the alternative to washing machines? Washing your clothes by hand? I think few people have the time and effort to do that. Good luck.

this is why we use soap.

I shall never wash my bottom again.

Buy it, wear it, burn it.
