Why should you keep soap by your bed every time you sleep?

Until now, you may have never thought of including a bar of soap as an essential item on your nightstand, but the benefits will surprise you.

Beyond its use in the shower, soap can keep your room and home clean in ways you never imagined.

A soap that is perfect to keep by the bedside beyond its main purpose is a type of soap that was once traditionally used for washing clothes.


But why?

Placing soap next to the bed can serve several purposes, and one of them is that it helps keep insects away.

One of the most effective benefits of keeping a bar of soap around is its ability to repel insects and dirt. If you are a gardener, you can place a bar of soap in your garden to keep weeds at bay and protect your plants from hungry insects and animals.

If your room is prone to insects, keeping a bar of soap on your bedside table can repel these insects and clean your room of any remaining insects.

This would be especially useful during the summer season when insects are inevitable and their presence becomes annoying.

In addition, placing soap next to the bed can also perform another function.

Believe it or not, a bar of soap can also help you with a common neurological disorder: Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).

For example, Dr. Mehmet Oz told Good Housekeeping that some believe a bar of soap helps relax the feet at night. /Telegraph/
