As a person who insists that bed sheets be changed and washed at least once a week, I gagged when I heard that a half-million (HALF MILLION!) people in England wash their sheets only three times a year. That’s every 120 days or so.
Yuck and eww!
Most Brits 25 and younger have the dirtiest bed sheets, and 10% of those wash their sheets every other month or so. Those over 55 are better, washing on average three times a month.
Ohhhh, the disease! The disease and filth that’s gathering on the beds!
How ‘bout us Americans? Forty percent are like me and wash our sheets every week, about a third washes every couple of weeks, 16% wash once a month, and 10% wash less than once a month.
That’s not as bad as the Brits, but remind me never to stay as a house guest in that lower 26% of our population.
And by the way, Londoners are the worst in England. Nearly a quarter of them wash their sheets once a month or less.
If I ever travel to England, I’m going to have to do some pre-vacation vetting of hotels and inns, and ask how often they wash their sheets.
Eww! Eww! Eww!
