Re: Toilets

If it looks unpleasant, I clean it, but I do it for aesthetic and olfactory reasons, not particularly for hygiene.

There's a lot of hysteria these days about having every surface antiseptically germ-free. Most of it, I suspect, whipped up by the makers of cleaning products. My view is that the immune system, like any other organ in the body, needs exercise or it gets flabby.

It might be a coincidence, but since I started to take a more casual approach to "all those billions of bacteria crawling over every surface" I've felt fitter and stronger. I used to come down with every bug that was going around - colds, flu, sore throat, stomach upset... I've had one mild dose of the sniffles in the last two years, and haven't had a day off work sick for over three.

Re: Toilets

I like to keep my toilet clean.. I do a lot of good, productive reading while on "the Throne", and I don't want my perch to be too sullied or soiled

But since I'm usually the only one who uses it, Its about Bi-weekly for me.

As soon as some yellowing/browning scum sticks to the bowl, or if I was "off target" late at night, I'll get in there and scrub 'er down.

Nice Poll Turtle .. I'll refrain from any further comment

Re: Toilets

Actually I scrub daily as needed and I pour a gallon of bleach in once a week.

Cool Re: Toilets

Gets bleach multiple times a day.

You could probably eat out of it.

Obviously, it makes a difference when you don't have the option of standing up....

Warning: I didn't start using bleach until after we lost our last dog, but before then she found the "green" cleaner we used to use so distasteful that it kept her away from it. If you have an animal, bleach is not a good thing.

They say toilet water is the cleanest water in the house .. No wonder dogs like to drink out of it
