Pop quiz, hotshot: A guest walks into your home with their shoes on. What do you do?
A) Politely ask them to remove their shoes at the door
B) Wish they would take their shoes off, but say nothing
C) Probably not notice
f you chose B or C, you're in the majority! BrightNest recently conducted a nationwide survey and found that 40 percent of homeowners allow guests and residents to wear shoes in the house. Another 25 percent said that while they prefer that shoes are removed, it isn't a huge deal, and they're pretty lax about the policy.
Seems harmless? Get this: Over 96 percent of shoes come into frequent contact with fecal material (looking at you, public restrooms).Learn more: https://brightnest.com/posts/you-re-tracking-poo-into-the-house#
