10 Gross Things You Will Find In Every Student House

Living with others at university can be an interesting experience. However, in every student house you will no doubt finding similar gross habits you and your housemates have adopted. Here are the top 10.
Hair clogging the shower drain
A classic gross university experience for those sharing a bathroom… Not a nice sight in the morning when you’re trying to have a shower and there’s a clogged drain filling the shower!
Food stains on shared sofas
Whether that’s from a previous tenant, or current flatmates, it’s always disgusting to be sitting near stains… Especially when they’re gross looking and have no clue what they could be from!
Crusty shared oven mitts
Maybe it’s best to get your own next year… Despite this, housemates always find a way to make your pair gross too though!
Sticky drink residue on tables
From pre-drinks, to random coffee stains, and sticky marks, it’s never pleasant to put your laptop on a gross kitchen table.
Socks left in communal areas
Where do they come from? Who do they belong to? How did they get there? Somehow nobody ever knows…
Expired condiments in the fridge
Gross gross gross… Jars of months old pesto and leftovers that have been left over the year… It’s not hygienic and certainly not pleasant to be slapped in the face with that stench when opening the fridge!
Mouldy leftovers in cupboards
As before… Who do they even belong to?! Nobody seems to own up to the evidence and it’s always the grossest foods closest to your stuff too… Just no!
Dusty, forgotten textbooks
Dare we say more…? Maybe get those returned to the library or put on Ebay ASAP.
Leftover, burnt oil in pans
Will it ever come off? Probably not now that it's been left there for a week… Why did someone use your pan when they have their own set to ruin? The questions we’ll never be able to answer…
Dirt and mud in the entryway
Even with a floor mat in the doorway, somehow the mix of rugby boots, walking shoes, and your flatmate’s shoes they haven’t washed in 5 years always get in the way as soon as you walk in the house from a stressful day of lectures…
