Can Washroom Soap Can Make You Sick?

Can Washroom Soap Can Make You Sick? from GOJO Industries brings to light a growing health risk in public restrooms everywhere.  Restaurants, offices, stores, hotels and more.  Those bulk soap dispensers (on the wall or built into the counter) that janitors refill by just pouring in more soap can easily become infected, and the bacteria can survive and grow inside the soap dispenser!  Yuck!

It’s hard to believe, but you could actually walk away with more bacteria on your hands after washing with soap from a refillable bulk soap dispenser in a public restroom. The contamination could even include fecal matter!

Once the sponge is thoroughly rinsed, dip it back in the soapy water and continue. Rinse and reload the sponge often, and hose the vehicle frequently as you work, especially on a warm day. Wash with gentle, horizontal strokes rather than a brisk, circular motion to avoid scratching the car with any stray grit.
