I had used it the other night and had to pull it out from the other bathroom in order to make it work. It was dirty and she putit in the dishwasher with almost nothing else, but I’m a little fucking skeeveed by it.
Edit: thanks all. I’ll run it again with vinegar at the hottest and feel better about it. No divorce. Thanks for your help.
Household Dishwashers do not sterilise, they only sanitise at best (with a 65° (150°F)). For sterilisation of all microorganisms including spores they would need to heat up to 120°C (250°F) for several minutes.
That being said you most likely breath in your own poop particles all the time, so sanitation may be enough.
it’s part of our microflora that floats around us.
