A simple rule for saving money without complicating your life
You may have heard this funny but meaningful phrase before:
"If it's yellow, we wait. If it's brown, we act."
Translation: There's no need to flush the toilet after every urination . Urine is a naturally sterile fluid and, contrary to popular belief, it doesn't turn the toilet into a breeding ground for bacteria .
The secret? A little regular maintenance and you're good to go.
But what about odors? Don't panic, there are tips!
We see you coming: "What about unpleasant odors?" Don't worry. There are a few simple solutions to keeping your bathroom fresh and inviting:
- A few drops of essential oil (lemon, lavender, eucalyptus, etc.) in a small container next to the toilet is enough to gently scent the room.
- A quick cleaning every other day using gentle, natural products will keep your toilet clean with ease .
- Also remember to air it regularly : a slight draft can often work wonders.
Smarter toilets go even further

If this idea appeals to you, know that there are now ingenious devices available that allow you to use even less energy:
- Dual flush toilets : allow you to choose a low or high flush rate, depending on your needs.
- Economy models : Some new toilets use just 2-3 liters of water per flush.
- Dry toilets: Ideal for homes with gardens or in rural areas, they offer a waterless, eco-friendly, and odorless alternative when well-maintained .
