The HomePod is not designed to be disassembled. The mesh is not removable. From HomePod User Guide - Support & Safety:


Do not expose HomePod to moisture, dampness or wet weather, such as rain, snow or fog.


A bathroom is not the place for a HomePod.

Electronics are generally not designed to be used in a moist environment unless they are specifically marked as being manufactured for that kind of environment. You run the risk of mold, true, but you also run the risk of moisture shorting out the device and causing damage. For higher voltage electronics, there is also the risk of personal injury.
