Family people, let\’s talk about it today A seemingly inconspicuous thing in life, but actually hidden great knowledge – should the toilet door be closed when you don’t use it? Don’t underestimate this issue. There are many considerations behind it. It is definitely not a superstitious statement, but a real and scientific basis. If it is not handled properly, the family might be in a lot of situations. Come and find out!

Entering our daily life , the bathroom is a place where it is used very frequently. Get up in the morning, go to wash in a daze, and start a full day of vitality; go home tired at night, take a comfortable shower to wash away all your fatigue; and the daily toilet needs are inseparable from this little little space. When using the bathroom, everyone will basically close the door, but once it is used up, many people don’t care so much about whether the door is opened or closed. There are many people who are dealing with it at will. But do you know? This inadvertent choice may cause a lot of trouble to life.
Let me first talk about the headache-inducing problem of odor. Imagine that after a busy day, I wanted to relax in a warm and comfortable environment, but as soon as I opened the door, a faint smell penetrated into my nose. If you follow the smell, the source is likely to be in the bathroom that is not closed. In the bathroom, used toilet paper, damp floors, and various cleaning supplies are mixed together, which is prone to produce an unpleasant smell. If the toilet door was wide open, these odors were like wild horses running out of reins, flowing along the air and drifting freely at home. They can penetrate all the way no matter the boundaries between the living room, bedroom, or kitchen.

The living room is an important place for entertaining guests. When relatives and friends are visiting each other, they are chatting happily, and a strange smell suddenly floats. How embarrassing the scene. Looking at the bedroom, it should be a warm little nest that makes people fall asleep peacefully If the smell of the bathroom is filled with, let alone having a good night\’s sleep, you may even feel uncomfortable staying. There is also the kitchen, which is related to the health of the family\’s diet. When the smell comes here, the mood of cooking is gone, and I always feel that The food must be stained with that strange smell. Especially in many families, the bathrooms and kitchens are close to each other, and this odor spreads even more smoothly. So, in order to protect the fresh air in the home, close the door when you don’t need the bathroom. It is so important.
The harm of bacterial transmission cannot be underestimated. The bathroom can be called the \”bacterial culture dish\” at home. The dark and humid environment provides excellent living conditions for bacteria and mold. Every time you flush the toilet As soon as the water flow stirs, bacteria are like activated little monsters, floating around with the splashing water and airflow. If the toilet door is open at this time, they will take the opportunity to sneak out of the bathroom and run to every corner of their home to \”set up camp\”. /p>

In the living room On the sofa, there may be bacteria that \”run\” from the bathroom, which are quietly attached to the sofa cushion. We usually sit on it and rest and watch TV, and the bacteria have the opportunity to touch our skin. The bed in the bedroom is no exception , bacteria fall on pillows and quilts, and we \”sleep with them\” every night. Over time, the health risks will increase greatly. Especially if the elderly, children or people with weak immunity at home are more susceptible to bacteria. The infringement of various diseases, such as respiratory infections, skin allergies, etc., can all be combined with the health care system.Interphysical bacterial transmission is inseparable from the relationship. Therefore, closing the toilet door for the sake of family health is equivalent to setting up a \”level\” for bacterial transmission.

From the aesthetic point of view, it is also necessary to close the toilet door. We all want the home to look neat and beautiful, giving people a comfortable feeling. But when the bathroom door is open, the scene inside is completely visible. Many families will pile up debris in the bathroom, with shampoo and shower gel bottles tilted around, toilet paper rolls randomly, and various cleaning tools scattered all over the floor. If this messy scene is seen by a visiting guest at a glance, it will affect the overall image of the family. Even if the bathroom is relatively clean and the toilet and shower head are directly exposed, it will make people feel unsightly. Looking from the living room to the bathroom, if the door is open, it is like there is a \”gap\” in the home, destroying the overall coordination of the space. Close the toilet door and cleverly block these unsightly parts, keeping every corner of the house clean and orderly visual effect.

Except for closing The key issue of toilet doors,There are many details that deserve our attention when using the bathroom. Take the trash can for example. Many people are used to putting a trash can in the bathroom to facilitate throwing used toilet paper and other garbage. But this small trash can may be the \”source\” of odors and bacteria. The garbage in the trash can, especially used toilet paper, will emit an unpleasant smell over time. And in humid environments, bacteria will quickly breed, just like a \”bacterial party\” in a trash can.
To avoid this situation, we can choose tissues that are dissolved in water, throw them into the toilet and flush them away after use. This is both convenient and hygienic, and there is no need to worry about blocking the toilet. If you really want to put the trash can in the bathroom, you must choose a lid. Every time you throw the garbage, cover the lid and effectively block the spread of odor and bacteria. In addition, the garbage bags in the trash can should be replaced diligently, and it is best to change them every day, so that the trash can is kept clean at all times and no chance for bacteria are left.

It is also true that the windows are opened for ventilation An important part of maintaining bathroom hygiene. Because the bathroom is often water-consuming, the humidity is high and it is easy to become wet. A humid environment not only makes the odor heavier, but also accelerates the growth of bacteria and mold. Every day, open the windows and ventilate them, fresh air can pour in and \”huh\” out the odors and bacteria. When the sun shines in, it can also play a certain sterilization effect. If the bathroom has no windows, don\’t worry, the exhaust fan will come in handy at this time. After taking a shower or going to the toilet, turn on the exhaust fan and let it work for a while, draining the humid air and keeping the bathroom dry.

Timely cleaning of the bathroom cannot be ignored. After taking a shower, the ground is always wet. If it is not cleaned in time, water will accumulate on the ground for a long time, which will not only make people slip, but also make the bathroom moist and wet. Over time, the corners of the walls and the gaps in the tiles Black mold may grow, which will make you feel upset and may also be harmful to your health. Therefore, after taking a shower, use a scraper to scrape the water stains on the ground and then use a mop to keep the ground dry.

After going to the toilet, The toilet also needs to be cleaned in time. If it is not cleaned in time, the residual dirt will produce a odor and will breed bacteria. Prepare a toilet brush and detergent. After using the toilet, just brush it and flush it clean. Keep it clean all the time. This not only makes the bathroom air fresh, but also makes people feel more comfortable next time.

<p class=\"pgc-img-caption\" There is also a detail that is easy to ignore, that is, do not place towels in the bathroom, especially above the toilet. There are many bacteria in the bathroom, which is produced when the toilet is flushed. Air flow can cause bacteriaBring to the air and attach to the towel. If we use such towels to wipe the face, bacteria may irritate the skin, leading to skin allergies, acne and other problems. It is best to place towels in a dry and ventilated place, such as in the bedroom wardrobe or on a special towel rack, so that they can be kept clean and hygienic and more secure when used.

Don\’t underestimate these Small details in life, the action of closing the toilet door, and some precautions when using the bathroom are closely related to our quality of life and health. From now on, pay more attention to these aspects and integrate these good habits into daily life to make our home cleaner, more comfortable and healthy.
