How to Clean Public Toilets?

• When you enter a public toilet, please wear a mask, if only you could see the amount of filth these places have. Do not use your bare hands to open or touch anything there.

• Our suggestion is to carry disposable gloves with you. Wear them at all times, and dispose of after exiting the public toilets. 
• Toilet seats consist of germs like streptococcus, E. coli, staphylococcus, hepatitis, STD and many more. Still, we all fear using toilet seats, and it is recommended to always clean public toilets/seats before using them. You can find toilet seat sanitisers in the market; try to buy one and keep it handy. Always spray them on the seat before using them.
