I think it is courteous to leave a toilet brush & plunger in each bathroom.
My DC is dog sitting & came home and grabbed ours to take care of the situation. Just a PSA - “every body poops” - sometime even just a dinner guest, and who wants to interrupt dinner asking for a things when the problem is easily remedied if plunger & brush are there. |
Kids’ bathrooms I do not have a brush, cleaner, or plunger, not safe. Plunger lives in the garage in a sealed container. |
What is the safety fear with a plunger? |
Totally agree and I have one in each bathroom. I also leave cleaning supplies in each to help myself if I see I need to clean something up really quickly. |
Toilet brush? Yes.
Plunger? No. |
Absolutely. Guest bathrooms should always have a plunger and ample extra toilet paper next to the toilet. You can buy a nice container/holder if the look offends you. |
What's the issue with plungers? |
Yes! Thank you, PP. Things happen, having a plunger in the guest bathroom can save everyone some grief. |
You know you can flush at halftime right? You don’t have to wait until the end. |
What? What would be unsafe about it? This is going to be like popcorn where someone told me to be afraid of it so I dutifully was, but I didn’t know it was about choking for years. I assumed it was like, the little kernel shell could lacerate them somehow. |
If you have kids who are young enough that they might eat the cleaner, they're probably young enough to try wearing a plunger as a hat or licking it. While those are not as unsafe as eating the cleaner, they are less than ideal. I don't keep a plunger or a brush out in the open where the smallest kids have access. |
Or you could just watch your kids and close the bathroom doors while not using them. |
If they might wear a toilet a hat, climbing onto the tub edge is a much greater risk. |
Good Lord, you people need better plumbing. That said, I sent plungers with my college bound sons. |
Teddy said it was a hat, So I put it on. Now dad is saying, "where the heck's the toilet plunger gone?" Shel Silverstein |
