Clean your Toothbrush!

So you use your tootbrush to clean your mouth but do you clean your toothbrush?  No worries I have a few easy ways to clean your families toothbrushes that shouldn't cost a thing. 

A few years ago my cousin was telling me that toothbrushes harbor a lot of bacteria.  It made sense and suddenly I was grossed out about somethis I use inside my mouth everyday.  She suggested putting it in the dishwasher  ***EuReKa***  Problem solved! The reason I like this idea so much is because I  use my dishwasher every night to clean dishes.  There is no extra work involved.

I did some more research online and there are a lot of ways that people  clean their toothbrushes even if they don't have dishwasher.

• Soak it in white vinegar for a while
• Dunk it in anti-bacterial mouthwash before use
• Boil your toothbrush

-TIP-  If you set your toothbrush in a cup after you use it wash the cup too.  Don't wash an electric toothbrush with any of the methods suggested.
