I either drink it all or I dump it and put fresh water in. What are the risks if I don’t wash it? It’s just me drinking out of it. I’m talking days and days like why ever wash it if it’s just me?
Edit: Clarified the amount of time without washing

I didn’t wash my water bottle for months and one day a huge blob of mold formed inside and I almost drank it.
Your saliva has bacteria and the dust around you have bacteria. They can get into your water bottle at any time and once there, they will incubate and grow. The proper way to prevent this is not just rinsing it, but to let it fully dry after you wash it.
