Put the Toilet Lid Down When You Flush

Put the Toilet Lid Down When You Flush

 

02 Aug 2021

Flushing the toilet stirs bacterial water particles from the toilet bowl directly into the air. The bacteria can circulate for several hours before settling on surfaces. Anything you leave out in your bathroom may become contaminated – lotions and products, toothbrushes, towels etc.  Close the lid when you flush to contain bacteria in the toilet bowl where they can settle. It is a worthy habit to avoid the spread of E. coli and other bacterial contaminants in your home.
