We spend a lot of time in bed, and there’s nothing better than snuggling up in fresh, clean sheets. But not everyone seems to share the same standards when it comes to hygiene.

A survey commissioned by Pizuna Linens, involving over 2,000 people in the UK, found that 45% of single men wait up to four months before washing their sheets—while a shocking 12% admitted to only doing it when they remembered! In contrast, 62% of single women wash their sheets every two weeks, but even that falls short of expert recommendations. To maintain good hygiene, specialists advise washing your sheets at least once a week.

But why is it so important to wash them frequently? And what’s the best way to do it? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
