Justifying why, the woman then confirmed that you should only use wipes, as she revealed:
“Disposable [wipes] only so you don’t have urine in your mop.”

Many social media users agreed with the cleaner’s recommendation and were eager to express this in the comments.
One person said: “Spot on!”
Another added: “I agree, I hand mop.”
A third commented: “I swear I want to barf when I see videos of people mopping around the toilet then using that mop head to do the rest of the bathroom.”
At the same time, someone else asked: “Who the hell is peeing on the floor?”
To this, the cleaning whizz replied: “90% of men!”
Meanwhile, another user claimed: “Everyone needs to understand pee and poo particles, when people flush it goes everywhere.”
Whilst another cleaning fan advised: “Disinfect your mop and always do bathrooms last.”
Not only has this cleaner warned against people using a mop by their toilet, but she previously revealed that you should also never use microfiber cloths around toilets either.
She wrote: “As a professional cleaner, you should NOT be using microfiber on clients’ toilets.
“It’s not sanitary.
“Most people are not okay with their cleaner using microfiber on toilets!”
Instead, the cleaning fan demonstrated how she makes toilets sparkle, in a much more hygienic way.
Using a toilet spray, the 24-year-old sprayed the product over the toilet and then added bleach inside the bowl.
Whilst wearing gloves, she then used a wipe to clean the area, rather than a microfiber cloth.
She also advised that you can use paper towels instead, as this is much more sanitary than cloths.
