Ballpitts are never washed. Not even once. However, some kids pee in there. This means there is a 100% chance that all balls in ballpits have been peed on, and not washed at some point. - eviltoast

    Uh… yeah, they get washed. Not frequently enough for this to be wrong, but still, they do get washed.

      There are specialized machines for this that resemble industrial vacuum cleaners but even bigger. Cleaned balls are bagged and get poured back once the floor and walls are sanitized. Do the operators keep track of when this was last done? Yes, and they aren’t proud of it so you won’t see cleaning logs hanging nearby like at most mall toilets.
