– Why is it bad to use my water bottle for multiple days without washing it?

737 views

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 got water bottle cleaning tablets. I use that every 2 months or so after weekly washings with dump and rinse in between. I have a couple different bottles that require certain maintenance, ex I have a stainless steel Bubba. Stays a bit cleaner longer, I also have a Gatorade bottle and I am constantly cleaning that one, those caps are mold traps. But I can’t get away from the satisfaction of misting my face. So situational for every kind of bottle. I know instantly after a sip, if I can taste, smell or even feel the churn in my stomach from mold.
