    Heres another, if your toilet is in the same room as your bath/shower and where you keep your toothbrush, human waste can be found in tiny amounts within your tooth brush caused by spray when flushing the toilet.

    I actually dry both my toothbrushes after using them and take them into the bedroom.

    Eat an average of 8 spiders in their lifetime? :eek: That's scary, eating spiders. Let's hope they are not the poisonous ones.

    Thank goodness in our home we keep our toothbrushes kept away in a closed box. That would be really disgusting....

    From tonight onwards, I have to apply tape on my mouth before going to bed. Even if the spiders go into the mouth accidentally, it will add to the protein content plus some unidentified nutritional factors that will boost the health :p

    Dont be an hypochondriac. I am sure we do alot of things we would'nt want to know about.

    As they say, ignorance is bliss.

    It's a myth. How do you think they find that fact out? They can't spy all people on earth while they sleep..... Or can they?
