  i noticed that sometimes my towels got black spots all over it due to unknown reason. definitely they r not from my body. and these spots can't be erased too.
  
  in later stage, the spots will cause some holes that make the towels not useable anymore.
  
  anyone know what these spots are and how to handle them? coz i'm a male and i'm dumb on laundry stuff
  
  thx

  they are black holes appearing in your towel.
  Mini tears in the fabric of space...or your towel.
  
  They're called mildew

  maybe they r mould....u shld let ur laundry air dry for one day and ensure they r fully dry before u keep them. just by feeling with ur hands u cant detect the moist
