Do you or anyone else have any idea how much fecal matter is already on yours and everyone else toothbrush at any given time just by the fact that it sits on your sink in the same room that you flush a toilet in....why does no one ever stop to think about this? Everything in your bathroom is contaminated with fecal matter....

Thats a good point really. Whenever you flush your toilet, its not as if everything goes straight down. Your toilet produces a light mist when you flush, and this mist covers a lot of your stuff in the bathroom with bits of fecal matter.

this was covered on mythbusters. they took a billion toothbrushes and put them all over a bathroom and monitored them for fecal coliform (sp?) bacteria. they also had 2 control brushes which were put in a completely separate room and were not used. the control brushes ended up with about the same amount as the ones in the bathroom, meaning that it's everywhere.

Toss it.

Gargle with closest alcohol-based substance. Minty preferred, Old Crow acceptable.

Would you throw it away right then?

Or wash in some way or another?
What would you consider a sufficient cleaning?
