Why is it so important not to flush the toilet after every trip to the toilet to urinate?

No, your bathroom isn’t going to turn into a swamp! What matters is regular maintenance . Clean the toilet every other day, or even every day if you fully adopt this new habit.

And what about odors? A small container with a few drops of essential oils (lemon, lavender, eucalyptus, etc.) placed near the toilet, and the atmosphere remains fresh, naturally .

Water savings at your fingertips

The best part about all this? You don’t need to change anything about yourself (except your habits). But if you’re feeling more adventurous, you can also:

Install a dual-flush toilet , which uses less water depending on the type of need.
Opt for recent, ultra-economical models that use less than 3 liters per flush.
Consider more eco-friendly solutions like dry toilets , if you live in the countryside or have a garden.
A little effort, big impact
Of course, in a public place or at a friend’s house, we maintain a respectful attitude: some people prefer the toilet to be flushed every time, and it’s important to adapt. The idea isn’t to impose, but to choose consciously.

At home, however, there’s nothing stopping you from making it a family habit . It’s a simple, cost-free gesture that can have a real impact , especially on a neighborhood or city scale.

The planet will thank you… and so will your water bill.
