Experts have been weighing in with advice on how often you should wash items such as duvets, bath mats and bed socks.
Dressing gowns and bath robes should be washed once a week - especially if they're worn daily and you have sensitive skin.
The Irish Daily Mail also reports bath mats should be washed weekly.
Fluffy socks you wear in bed should be washed after every second wear, while your duvet should be washed every couple of months.
