Cell phones have more germs than a toilet seat
Share The Knowledge
Cellphones carry up to 10 times more bacteria than most toilet seats, a new study has revealed.
Experts said the reason is that phones are often passed between people which spreads the germs around - but they are never cleaned which means the diseases keep on building up.
When somebody lets a friend or a stranger use their mobile their bacteria easily gets onto the device too.
Professor Gerba added that because mobiles are electronic some people are reticent about cleaning them, the Daily Mail reported.
While toilets tend to get cleaned frequently, because people associate the bathroom with germs, cellphones and other commonly handled objects - like remote controls - are often left out of the cleaning routine.
