The feet are primarily at risk when walking along the pool. For this reason, suitable shoes should always be worn and left on the edge before entering the water. However, armpits and folds of the body are also exposed where bacteria and even fungi can nest and grow.

Another determining factor is change the costume after use, especially stagnant pool water is not ideal for drying on the skin and in such a delicate intimate area. Subsequently is crucial too wash the garment with boiling water, in this way not only the fungus but also bacteria and germs will be removed.
