Clean Toilet Brush

I use the cheapy brushes from the likes of Wilkinsons - they were about 60p each last time I bought - I buy several at a time and replace them regularly. When finished cleaning I rinse the brush with bleach or disinfectant (whilst its in the pan).

Agree with cheap and frequent replacement. I have a stainless steel one from Ikea with replacement heads.

SIL gave me a good tip: When you've finished cleaning round leave the brush in the bowl in the bleach. It gives a signal to rest of family that there's bleach in there. Not much use if you've only got the one loo but will help some of you.

i cant stand them, we moved into a rented flat recently and it came with two pre-used bog brushes!!!!!

i chucked them immediately and have yet to replace them, i know they are cheap but just hate them so much! i just chuck bleach down there every day and they look perfectly fine so i'm sticking with that i think!

I once watched my friend clean her loo with a sponge, which she then used for doing the sink and floor in the bathroom too, then popped it under the sink for next time. blerg!

I've ditched my brush and will be braving the gloves / scrub technique from now on.

I brought mine from lakeland and just use it when I do my cleaning and rinse it under hot water when I've finished and keep it in my cleaning bucket.

This reminds me of when i worked as a chambermaid a few years back.

There was a Chinese guy who didn't speak very good English working with me, and we had to share a cleaning supplies bucket. I needed to do the loo in my room and he was in the one next door, i went through and said;

'can i have the loo brush please?'
he didnt understand
'the toilet brush? (cue toilet scrubbing action)'

He suddenly got it, and went into the loo, me following him, the brush was in the loo, i was standing behind him as he picked it out,he loked excited that he had suddenly understood me and give it a swirl in the air like a magic wand before handing it over. Thus spraying me with brown water all over my face just as I was saying thanks.

lovely.

I used to use a brush, but decided to get the Toilet Duck disposable one instead. I know it can be expensive, but as there is only myself & OH at weekends,Ithink it's worth the expense!
I have cut down on other things instead.

But then you have to find a suitable receptacle to store gloves and cloth - why is it that 'moist toilet tissues' can be flushed but the disinfectant wipes can't?
