Dust Shoes And Feet With Baby Powder

Because fungus requires moisture to start growing, it is recommended for individuals to dust shoes and feet with baby powder when there is excess moisture. This is an additional method of reducing the moisture levels in shoes that are so critical to the growth of fungus infections. In addition, the baby powder usually has a fragrance, which will help reduce the mild odors anyone may suffer after a hard day. Baby powder is gentle and is unlikely to create any irritation like a medicinal powder may cause in some individuals with sensitivities. Aside from baby powder, cornstarch or other talcum powders can also help reduce moisture on feet and in shoes.
