We have a boarder living with us and he never showers. He showered once, when he came here, just before Christmas 2014. It's only because I noticed he was sweating(when he arrived) and I just said,"Oh you can take a shower". He took a shower and that was it. No more since then. The room smells and so does he. My DH (who knows him well) said to him the other day, "You can have a shower, bathroom's free" He squirmed, screwed up his nose and said, "nawww".

We take it he doesn't like bathing/showering at all. He washed his clothes yesterday after a month. He wears longsleeve tops in the heat and smokes(outside).

He recently had a fungus infection on his toe and was applying cream. I nearly felt like saying"Take a shower".

Are we at risk of contracting any health issues? His skin is yellow/brown and he has stains on his feet.

He is looking at moving out in a month or so. I can't wait. I have scented candles everywhere trying to get rid of "Unwashed smell".

My DH(who knew his last room mate) told DH that he never had a wash/shower, so I am thinking this shower was probably the first in a year.

Thoughts. I am a little paranoid now about contracting something.
