Many opt for the former in hope of avoiding hard-to-remove moisture-loving mildew, but does it really work?

Its recommended to leave your shower curtain open after showering because it helps the curtain dry completely.
When closed, moisture can get trapped, encouraging mold and mildew growth.
It will also help the curtain dry quicker and ensure it does so completely.
Whats Best?
Mock advises utilizing the bathroom fan both during and after showering so that aid in ventilation.
A dehumidifier can also be called on to alleviate any excess moisture lingering in the air.
Shower curtains and liners should be cleaned once a month.
