Keeping The Toilet Clean

Members Were Sparked

My husband has trained himself (and our adult son) to use the seat rather than stand. This helps to keep the "splashes" at a minimum.... and it makes it easier when it's time to clean the toilet.

Yes,yes,yes. Men who don't clean the bathroom have no clue. Everybody is equal is our house and everyone sits.

My Dad is a very clean man, and has recognized that he needed to sit 55 years ago! He gives credit to his Mother because she taught her 4 boys to clean toilets when they were young so they would come to the "clean" solution by themselves. My uncles do it as well. Men secure with their masculinity will sit. I am so disgusted when males guests have obviously stood to use our bathrooms.

I am sorry my husband would through a fit. That would not happen in my house.

Make toilet cleaning (ugh) easier

I keep a toilet bowl brush in its stand, with some full strength household cleaner in it, behind my toilet. Every day I raise the lid and ring, give it a good scrub, lay the brush on the rim and put the ring back down so that the brush can air dry.

This is really easier and much less nasty than letting it get dirty and then trying to clean it out.

Product Review:

Scrubbing Bubbles Toilet Cleaning Gel:
Its a thing you stick in your toilet and it is a gel that clings to the inside of the bowl. Not only does it keep it fairly clean for the 5-7 days it stays but also makes a pleasing smell in your bathroom. :-)

MORE INFORMATION:
I must admit this does not replace cleaning the toilet, but does help the job when you do it weekly.
