You may not want to use your bath towel as a bomb, warns manufacturer

When you’re out and about with your kids and need to clean up, there’s no better option than to use a bath towel to get rid of any leftover water.

But as a bath bomb, a bath rug can cause a mess, as it could easily get caught on things, like soap or clothespins.

“If you’re putting something in the bath, you can use the towel as you would any other product that’s in your bathtub,” says Katie Pomeroy, an expert on safety products for the American Chemical Society (ACS).

“And if it’s in the toilet, it can get stuck to the toilet seat or on the drain, which can cause contamination of the toilet or the toilet bowl.”

You’ll want to check for stains and make sure there’s water around before putting the towel in the tub, says Pomeroys advice on cleaning up after bath bombs.

It’s also important to remove all traces of the product before you put it away.

“Just because it’s a bath product, it doesn’t mean it’s safe,” says Potholes.

“You should never leave anything in the water for the life of the bath,” Pomeros advice says.

And even if you’re sure it’s just a bath mat or towel, use a washcloth or cloth napkin to wipe down the tub or shower, and if you need to, remove any traces of any product before putting it away, too.

“It’s important that you clean the tub before you do anything else with the product,” says C.C. Cavanaugh, a senior product manager for the chemical company.

If you have any questions about bath bombs or other bath products, contact Pomeroes expert, and she’ll be happy to help.
