- Wife reveals husband who showers twice a day leaves unsightly stains on bed
- Mum shared snap showing one side of the bed covered in stubborn dark marks
- She said husband is covered in dirt from work but he scrubs himself before bed
- After sharing her dilemma, many revealed it’s far more common than you think
- Dozens of wives revealed their husbands leave similar dark stains all over bed
A wife has turned to the internet for help after her tradie husband who religiously showers twice a day continues to leave behind unsightly stains all over their bed.
The mother, from Queensland, shared a picture on social media showing one side of the bedhead and sheets covered in stubborn marks.
She explained her husband, who works as a plumber in civil work, ‘always comes home covered in dirt’ so he scrubs himself in the shower two to three times a day using a body wash and ‘rough’ loofah.
Despite him being ‘clean’ before slipping into bed, the wife struggled to remove the unwanted stains from their sheets.
‘How can I stop this happening to all of my sheets, pillow cases and bedhead? They are cleaned regularly, and hubby showers morning and night,’ she wrote in a Facebook group.
She joked: ‘I’m not about washing them daily but I may consider throwing him out if I cant find a solution.’
The mother said he’s usually a ‘sweaty person’ who doesn’t smoke or use fake tan or have a ‘fake tanned mistress in our bed’.
She explained that he sleeps on pillows with black covers and their headboard is cleaned regularly using a Bissell spot cleaner.
‘Between him and the kids, I can’t have nice things… Looks like I’m getting new dark sheets,’ she said.
After sharing her dilemma, dozens of women came forward saying it’s far more common than you think.
‘I have a mechanic husband and same here. I only use dark sheets and he puts an old tee shirt on top of his pillowcase to stop it happening there,’ one mum wrote.
Another agreed, saying: ‘It’s sweat. My husband’s side of the bed is the same.’
A third said: ‘Omg my partner too. Everything on his side ends up looking like this. I hate it so much and it stains the pillow cases and sheets.’
One added: ‘My hubby’s side of the bed was like this as well. He showers so much though and works in an office job. I have found that 100 per cent cotton sheets
helped. It’s still obvious which side is his but it’s nowhere near as bad.’
