I've used a towel style bath mat for decades, I think it's the most hygenic. It goes on the floor to shower, then gets hung to dry between showers.

I lay floors and hadn't seen a "permanent" bath mat in years but ran into one today. It was that typical shag rug style, bright pink. This was a clean house but it was strange to me, I didn't think anyone used those anymore.

My partner bought a diatomaceous earth bathmat to replace the rug in front of the shower. It's like stepping onto a piece of cardboard, so zero points for luxury. It does catch and re-evaporate the water well, so full marks there. Humidity is naturally low here, so no I have little to no worries about mold.

    Huh, weird. DE? I've used it to filter beer at a small brewery and I use it as a natural insecticide.
