Sharing My Tricks for The Toilet

Hey Everyone,

I wanted to share two tricks I find so handy in the toilet, that it boggles my mind nobody else does! With these methods I've been able to live without a toilet brush or plunger for the past couple of years, and my toilet is sparkling clean!

  1. When the toilet gets clogged from too much TP or other things, I squeeze in about a table spoon of dish soap. Then flush it a tiny bit just to mix the soap in. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes and then flush properly. Miraculously gets unclogged and flushes every time! Sometimes it does need to sit longer than 20 minutes though.

  2. When I get the poop stains on the toilet, I use the store brand bleach cleaner (The one in the tall blue bottle) around the rim and on the stain, again in about 15 minutes, if you flush the stain will be gone! Even really bad ones.

I hope my pooping tricks can bring you joy

    So you waste money on bleach when you could use a reusable brush that doesn’t add extra chemicals into our wastewater systems?

    If your loo is getting blocked by too much toilet paper, you’re also doing it wrong.

      • +25

        More to the point was why would you use a purchased chemical application (apparently twice) when a $2 brush will work and last for years.

          • +49

            @Motek Benzona: Rinse the brush afterwards you animal!

              • @Motek Benzona:

                Yes, because water safely cleans up all traces of shit

                So you use bleach in the shower to clean your ass?

          • +12

            @Motek Benzona: The idea of having a shit-scrubbing brush sitting there is quite revolting.

          • +9

            @Motek Benzona: It’s not hard to clean the brush off, just remove the offending marks and flush while you brush a clean part of the bowl where the water is flushing past.

            Perhaps your diet needs some help if you have a massive problem with marks.

              • +13

                @Motek Benzona: I would have thought someone who was vegan was a little more environmentally sympathetic. Thought that was the whole idea of going vegan, let alone vegan types typically thinking their sh!t don’t stink.

                Anyway just because someone else is dumping chemicals into a river doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do what you can to reduce the total load. Will one person make a significant difference? Nope. Will it help if lots of people reduce their impact? Definitely.

                Ultimately, I don’t really care what you do, just offering cost free alternatives.

                  @Euphemistic: Broken window theory - someone else has done (is doing) more damage to the environment, so I might as well cause unrestrained damage too.

        Reductio ad absurdum.

        Hospital cleaners use chemicals, but bottles of bleach and other potentially lethal products can't be left in toilets, as there is axrisk of burns or ingestion. A brush is provided, however, so both options are viable.

          From wiki

          A Risk Assessment Report (RAR) conducted by the European Union on sodium hypochlorite conducted under Regulation EEC 793/93 concluded that this substance is safe for the environment in all its current, normal uses.[26] This is due to its high reactivity and instability. The disappearance of hypochlorite is practically immediate in the natural aquatic environment, reaching in a short time concentration as low as 10−22 μg/L or less in all emission scenarios. In addition, it was found that while volatile chlorine species may be relevant in some indoor scenarios, they have a negligible impact in open environmental conditions. Further, the role of hypochlorite pollution is assumed as negligible in soils.

      Is this really a question? Are you gonna bring up climate change next? This could be useful tricks not necessarily happening all the time. No one stop you using a $2 brush last your life time but equally using whatever chemicals is not up to you.

    • +2

      What reusable/brush kit do y'all recommend tho??

    • +1

      I’m no chemist but bleach breaks down pretty fast in water. In fact, bleach can be added to drinking water supplies to disinfect it. I’d be more concerned about the poo than the bleach.

        How did you know?

    Bucket of water for the first one. Toilet brush for the second one.

    • +5

      On a serious note, you should Full-Flush the toilet with just the poop. It will clear the crap. Then wipe, throw in bin, wipe again until satisfied. Now you have a half-load of crappy-paper. Full-flush again. All clear, no clogs. Now if there's any skid marks that didn't clear, use the brush. When flushing midway through use the flush to rinse out the brush and hit it around the bowl carefully to dry it out before placing it back to its holder.

      Other advice?
      0- Change the seating for something better, more comfy, and soft closes. Women tend to notice.
      1- Regularly clean the toilet. Maybe once a week or more/less common depending on its usage. First with wiping the area with TP and a flush, then use bleach.
      2- If possible, install a bidet. A butt washer. The water of life. It will make it much easier to clean your bunghole, and you'll use less TP saving you $$.
      3- Don't use the cheapest TP, unless it's very cheap. I think it's worth spoiling yourself here. Some 2-PLY are much much better than 3-PLY because they're puffy/soft-textured. This arsehole recommends.
      4- Have a soap dispenser, and put some on a wad of toilet paper. And make this the last thing you wipe with, after your first/second dry wipes.

      • +2

        You throw your TP in the bin? Also soap probably isn't good for your butthole man. It is meant for external use only. Your butthole, just like your genitals, should only be washed with water

        • +5

          In parts of the world, e.g. Asia, the sewer systems aren’t designed to handle toilet paper. You don’t flush TP there.

        • +5

          Pretty sure genitalia should be washed with soap, but rinsed thoroughly.

        • +1

          Where did I say I throw used TP in the bin?

          Nah, not internal of the bunghole, the area where you can reach with your TP is not-gey and fair game to clean properly. If you ever had a day walking around with a bit of poop there, you know what I'm talking about. It sticks, it stinks, and makes you feel ew.

          Lets say if I walked upto you now, and with my finger I wiped some poo on your forearm… would you be happy to just wipe it with a tissue? I bet not. You'd run to the sink and wash it thoroughly with water and soap, and maybe even use something extra like disinfectant or alcohol to forget the trauma.
          …so why wouldn't you clean your butt better?

          I'm not just talking out from my arse here ; )

    Wait why are you letting literal shit sit on the toilet for long enough that you need to do this? Am I the only one that doesn't leave a toilet with massive shit stains on it?

    • +1

      YES.

  • +2

    Here is my 2 cents.

    When the toilet gets clogged from too much TP

    Start using an electronic bidet seat. It's more cleaner, more hygienic and good for the env (less tp) and clogging your toilet with TP will be a thing of the past.

    When I get the poop stains on the toilet, I use the store brand bleach cleaner

    I use the brush after each use if or as needed and use the cleaning products when its time for a clean. Again you're doing good for the env with less use of cleaning products that gets washed away to the sewerage system and no need for waiting 15 mins.

    • +2

      To be fair, the drain from your sink and your toilet go to the same sewer (unless you have greywater system), so you could argue that OP should not wash dishes until absolutely necessary in order to stop chemicals going into the sewer

      • Hehe.. what i’m telling is not to over do it (like abusing anti bacterial products)

    • i empty bleach water from my the bucket into the toilet after mopping. is it not good?

      • Bleach quickly breaks down into water and salt as it reacts with things.

        Chances are there is no bleach left in what you are putting into the toilet.
