Dishwasher, washing machine and other appliances that make our lives easier, can be fraught with danger to the health of the whole family.

Scientists from the University of Ljubljana conducted a study in which came to the conclusion that the dishwasher and washing machine – a great environment for reproduction, at least two very dangerous bacteria – Exophiala dermatitidis and E. Phaeomuriformis.

They reproduce in a favorable environment: moisture and temperature. Usually mildew appears on the rubber surfaces of the car and in the boot trays for detergents. The problem is that these types of fungi are resistance to high temperatures and chemical detergents.

Experts warn that dangerous bacteria, affecting human lungs were found in 62 percent of the dishwashers.
