A simple action that changes everything! Did you know that leaving the lid open exposes your bathroom to a veritable spread of bacteria? Find out why it's essential to close the toilet seat before flushing!

Stop airborne bacteria!

What does this imply?

  • These particles can settle on your toothbrush, towels, and even soap.
  • They carry germs like  E. coli  or salmonella, which can cause digestive and urinary tract infections.

Solution: Close the lid before flushing! A simple but effective way to limit the spread of germs.
