Good
afternoon all, this morning I had the falls program today they talked
about how to pick yourself up if you happen to fall. I said you
couldn't have told me this last week before I fell on Friday morning.
Anyway
it is Tuesday, so it is gross facts day, again I am spliting it into
two posts......
Every
time you flush the loo, you can send an invisiblie plume of bacteria
into the air that lands on exposed surfaces, so close the lid before
you flush.
The
toilet is not the dirtiest place in the bathroom, the sink is. The
sink has like 20,000 germs per square centimetre but the toilet has
only 20 germs per square centimetre.
Locals
in Florida, USA found that Cuban tree frogs had swum up the pipes
into toilets.
A
kitchen chopping board has 200 per cent more bacteria than the
average toilet seat.
Mice
can squeeze through cracks as small as 6mm to get into your house and
nest under the floor on in the ceiling.
I knew about the toilet flushing thing but still don't remember to close the lid--LOL! So many places for germs. We never worried much about germs when I was a kid, though, and we survived.
ReplyDeleteSo many gross facts that are new to me. I have seen mice squeeze through a small crack under the door into my house.
ReplyDeleteSo next blog post how to get up after you fall!
ReplyDeleteI learned about closing the lid about 10 years ago thank goodness.
ReplyDeleteI had a good comment but Rita had the same one... maybe you should take a poll to find how many closed lid flushers read here...
ReplyDeleteWell that kitchen chopping board one has me terrified.
ReplyDeleteRita......I always close the lid has became a habit, I don't worry much about germs
ReplyDeleteNancy......Yeah it is weird how mice can squeeze through
Sandie.....Maybe
Katie.....Yeah I saw something on TV about it years ago myself
Chris......If you can remember to do it enough it becomes a habit
Karen.......I wash mine in the dishwasher
Dear Jo-Anne, thanks for these facts. We are to close the toilet lid before flushing, but what do we do about the sink? Peace.
ReplyDeleteDee.......Yep I get that
