When I go to people’s houses, their toilet paper area never seems to have as much of that goddamn dust all over the place. Is it my toilet paper? I swear even when I clean, there’s a film of that stuff that comes up all over the toilet and behind the toilet. Am I doing something wrong?
Edit: I have a bidet. You still need to dry your ass and vulva with a bidet. Guests still want toilet paper. Now I’m more concerned - do y’all not have toilet paper just because you have a bidet?? It’s not safe to leave your ass moist!
Sounds like it’s a brand issue though but my partner is unwilling to switch from the ultra soft whatever we have so I guess I’m SOL.
They all shed at least a little but it’s a brand thing. I buy whatever 2+ ply is on sale with no loyalty (I have bidets too) and some are definitely worse than others for debris when torn off the roll.
Is it the toilet paper? Say you move the toilet paper somewhere else and only bring some in when you go, is it still dusty?
OP, how often do you think you are supposed to clean the bathroom?
I know I don’t clean it often enough but I also don’t think that dust should happen after like two days of a deep clean
It doesn’t.
Everyone wipes down their bathrooms before company comes over, and lives with a layer of TP dust and pubes the rest of the time.
I’ve never had toilet paper like that. I buy supermarket own brand stuff here in the UK. Even when I’ve bought cheap stuff I’ve not had that issue.
Switch to a different brand. The paper they’re using is bad of it’s flaking off all the time.
I lick it clean every morning. Isn’t that what everyone does?
I do lines of TP
Dogs. I let my 12 dogs do the licking.
I plead guilty to laziness.
You’re probably buying ultra soft fluffy cloud nothing but air toilet paper. You’re also probably not using a bidet.
This guy doesn’t even know about the three seashells!!!
hearty chuckle
Spray, air dry, heated seat. It’s only 3 buttons to figure out.
Switch brands.
Yeah, thanks, it sounds like you’re right since people using other brands don’t seem to have this issue. My partner is extremely particular about this brand of TP though so I guess I’m just gonna have to live with it.
Couldn’t you just buy other toilet paper and leave his dusty roll for his use only?
Unless it’s an allergy issue just get something else and put it in the old bag. I did this with dish soap until others admitted the store brand at half the cost worked just as well… they couldn’t deny it as they’d been happily using it for months without complaint.
I’ve never seen this.
I have that too. I just wipe it with microfibre wipes every few weeks and before guests come over.
Never heard of such a thing. I’d try different brands, does not sound normal that the paper would shed.
But I think just about every bathroom would get regular dust buildup pretty quickly especially if it’s a flat (not a house) where one of the only outward air vents would usually be there.
Just mentioning that because a lot of people don’t seem to clean their bathroom floors — or other surfaces for that matter, that aren’t the actual toilet seat or the faucet — all that regularly. We’ve just recently had this talk with a friend of mine who’s a bachelor and was complaining about how his bathroom is somehow built wrong or faulty because it gets so dusty so quickly, and used ours as an example of how easy we have it because his would need constant cleaning to look similarly decent.
Had to tell them that unfortunately we are cleaning it, out of this very same necessity, very frequently and that’s the only reason it looks like it does as opposed to theirs…
Just a thought: Maybe others just clean it more often and that’s why there isn’t dust visible. You’d be a visitor on other peoples’ homes, so they very likely do some extra scrubbing right before you visit. Maybe you just don’t happen to see the place as it is in an average day, if not actively and frequently kept clean, and that’s why you think others don’t have the same buildup. You witness your bathroom every single day after all, others only occasionally.
Dust? What?
I clean my bathroom.
Fuck off.
I knew this would be here.
Q: “How do I clean my bathroom?”
A: “I clean my bathroom you dirty pleb”
Yes. If your bathroom is dirty, the solution is to clean it. Glad you recognize that. I hope you can put that knowledge to good use.
OP provided a picture. It’s just a dirty bathroom.
The consensus throughout this post is that its the brand of TP.
OP had a problem about cleaning, asked a question, received an answer, and know knows the solution which will enable them to clean their toilet.
You’re here trying to shame someone for asking a question about cleaning.
Personally I think the bidet is the problem - you aren’t going through tp quickly enough. It has more time to fall apart.
All I got is try other brands and clean more often.
While you say your partner is unwilling to switch, there are still multiple ultra soft brands. For example I’ve switched from Charmin Ultrasoft to Kirkland (Costco). It seems just as soft, but it has less dust, its individual sheets are bigger, and it’s cheaper
Yeah, that dust is getting on your vulva, I have a bidet too. I prefer papers that are similar to scotts, where there is no dust. That extra soft stuff is aweful.
I’d buy what I wanted and just use it myself if my husband cared.
