The Microscopic Reality
Every time you use a traditional toilet brush, you are essentially creating a petri dish of fecal [see where see where bacteria really hide bacteria really hide](https://clowand.com/blog/where-toilet-bacteria-hide) bacteria, E. coli, and staphylococcus. The damp bristles and the dark, moist holder provide the perfect breeding ground for pathogens that can survive for weeks.
The "Drip" Problem
When you move a wet brush from the bowl to the holder, you create a trail of bacteria-laden water. This moisture sits at the bottom of the cup, creating a stagnant pool of filth that off-gasses every time you enter the room.
Why Clowand is Different
Clowand eliminates the need for a permanent brush. Our disposable heads are used once and flushed (or disposed of), meaning zero bacteria stays in your bathroom. It is the end of the dirty toilet brush era.
