Replace Your Plastic Showerhead
Did you know that plastic showerheads are worse than metal ones? Experts claim that biofilm builds faster in plastic showerheads than the metal ones, allowing more bacteria to enter. Scientists from the University of Colorado also discovered that metal ones had fewer germs than the plastic ones, so you might want to keep that in mind next time you’re looking for a showerhead. If you don’t know whether yours is plastic or metal, you can check out its connection material. If there’s a screw-on and not a secure bolt, chances are yours is plastic.
