Isn't it funny that all the stains come out dark with night vision??? What was that huge dark stain on Eric's bed cover? And those funny stains on Roddy's cover. Some of you have posted night shots and you can see them clearly.
However, on the tv show it's even more clear. I can't believe it's a pattern on the cover, since they're all one color.
Anyone noticed that??

I haven't noticed the stains, but I have noticed that the beds in the HRD are never made. What else do they have to do in there? Do some laundry and make the beds, clean up people!

Good thing they washed it..

I know Marcelle has washed his sheets, cause someone was teasing him about someone taking a nap on his clean sheets so he'd have to do them all over again.

so I assume everyone does

I think that the beadspreads in Eric's room have multi-colored circles on them. The infra-red cam turns the light circle (in the middle) into a big dark spot. It looks really gross!! But I don't think that it is due to anything Eric did.

I believe they washed all the covers and sheets yesterday. When Jason was helping Amy make her bed they kept having to go outside to get clean bedclothes. There was also a remark that the covers "may still be damp".

The spider scare prompted a full-on cleaning frenzy in the house.

This reminds me of the thing about some hotels not washing the top bed cover as often as they should. I don't know where the story came from but the deal was that even though the sheets might be washed every day, somebody looking at the room in night vision could see on the bedspread all sorts of yucky spots left behind by the former guests. I have a friend who will not even put her suitcase on a hotel bed until the top spread is taken off. She and Marcellas would get along great.

Goatgirl, I saw a show about that too and it's given me the creeps ever since!

And this thread points out anoter improvement in this year's BB: remember the first season when they had to use that stupid wringer washer and line dry their clothes? It's no wonder they looked as frumpy as they did.

I sleep on a bed of nails. I'm getting tired of buying new sheets everyday :(

I do that, and I'm a slobby, 30-something straight male!

I'll put my suitcase on it (no worse than putting it on the ground or up against 100 others in an airplane), but I don't sleep with it touching me! And I have brought my own sleeping bag/pillow to hotels. Think of drool that seeps into the pillow itself! It may have a clean pillowcase but the pillow itself could be pretty nasty! Oh! I bring my own towels to hotels too- not because theirs are dirty but because they aren't soft enough!

Oh, Kaili! It never dawned on me that pillows have probably absorbed gallons of drool and that a pillowcase is insufficient protection from the nastiness! Packing and schlepping for travel has always been a pain; now it will be even worse because a pillow will also have to be stuffed into the luggage. Thanks for the heads-up (so to speak)!

Sorry if I disgusted you! You could always just toss an extra towel on top of the pillowcase. It would probably help a little, although then you have to deal with the scratchy towels that hotels tend to provide!

I'm pretty sure the houseguests don't bring in their own bedding, right? I wonder (hope) they get new sheets and pillows at the start of the show (not the ones the last 2 years guests have used). And with the all the bed rotating....Do you think they put new sheets, pillows and a new bedspread on when a new guest becomes HOH? Probably sheets but I wonder about the bedspread... Also, the big question now....will the bedding Lisa has laid her bare infection on be washed? They should have it taken out to be cleaned...not have them wash it.

you're right kaili, I'm betting the water they use to wash isn't hot enough to kill any potential bacteria or virus that may be spread to the sheets....hopefully they will think of that.
