A TP roll that has been sitting right next to your toilet, being handled by people who are in the process of using the toilet, can definitely become unhygienic.


I don't know about you and your family but in my home only the actual first tissue is touched to roll paper and then it by the perforated edge. If a new roll is needed then it's a simple matter of removing empty roll and putting new roll on spinner. Fingers never touch the old roll as there are always a couple of sheets sticking to roll.

Ok, I am going to invent a hermetically sealed toilet roll dispenser, go on Shark Tank, and make my fortune!

Kid would have to do a ton of art projects to justify paying for that.

Probably cheaper to buy them on Shein.

Yes, you have excessive anxiety. The roll is covered until the last bit of toilet paper is pulled, and even if it wasn’t, your daughter uses the bathroom all the time and hasn’t died from anything yet. She touches everything else in the bathroom daily.

Yes, you can also buy a collection of craft rolls if you want to. If she’s doing a lot of projects, it probably makes sense.

Is your argument that somehow toilet paper art work is essential for a healthy immune system?

There’s probably far nastier germs on your phone than any surface of your bathroom.

She's been watching videos where people make fun things with toilet paper tubes. I remember happily making all sorts of crafts with toilet paper tubes as a kid, but now I find the idea slightly horrifying.

I have some anxiety about health and germs. So, I want the opinion from people who don't have health anxiety.

Or, is there a way to purchase toilet paper tubes that aren't have toilet paper attached? The crafts seem to involve cutting and folding in ways that I don't think would work with pieces of thicker wrapping paper tubes.


So use paper towel rolls, just cut to size.

And get some ERP therapy for your germaphobia.

Unhelpful response to OP. Go away.

It wouldn’t occur to me to be concerned.
