To tell DH to V.I.Poo?

[TakeMeToTheFresh]

Just that, really.

Absolutely disgusting, I know. But hopefully if you're sensitive, the thread title made you steer clear.

DH is incredibly unpleasant on the loo and I think these things are fab (The V.I.Poo) sprays.

I even keep one in my handbag now.

I haven't actually asked him to use it every time.

AIBU? Yes I know this is his home too but as it's mine also, I don't want the loo unpleasant to be in

I'm very clean and tidy but I think this may just be common curtesy now?

Sorry if it's not, I'm asking in AIBU because sometimes I don't know how reasonable my requests are!

More veg and less animal protein in the diet will help this

He's a bloody Vegan

My house always stinks anyway as none of my children seem to understand how to flush

Tell him to open the window BEFORE he shits. Then when he sits there for 45 minutes stewing in it it won't be building up ready to burst out when he opens the door.

I live in a fucking bungalow with a man who is incapable of opening a window or shutting a door. Apparently.

My dh goes every morning at 830 and some days it doesn't smell but then others fucking hell it stinks and the smell come s through the wall and door . Makes me heave !

I honestly think women smell a lot less horrible than men. Sorry, men.

I have the opposite issue. My OH is so paranoid about his poo smell that he hangs around the bathroom until is totally dispersed and cleans the toilet fastidiously. I have a houseful of sons who can leave the ripest of smells (they are well trained on cleaning the toilet though). I don't like him feeling so paranoid so I say 'babe, just do it, spray, and then leave the window open'. But no, every time he stays there. Bless him, after reading this thread I'm beginning to prefer his approach.

I think someone at work might be doing this and I must say I appreciate it. For a floor of about 100 people we have 6 toilets. They get used a lot and sometimes there isn't a choice about whether to use a smelly one or not. That's so unpleasant.

wouldn't use it though as I would be too embarrassed to buy it.

Surely not? Do you also have problems butting toilet paper?

I love the idea of VIPoo but I can't get my head around the fact that I wouldn't be able to place my 'landing' tissue in the toilet if I used it

It's a game changer here.
Lemon is best.
I'm taking the tip re making my own next time.

Viral marketing is a wonderful thing.

That's what's stopping me from buying it too! I've been wondering if one of those teeny airfresheners that go on the wall could be carried in a handbag without squirting everywhere.

Purely as a joke I bought 2 bottles for the Christmas stockings of the 2 in our house who smell as if something evil has crawled up their arses and died.
Lots of laughs from the stinkers and the sufferers - but it works and they use it. Without prompting.

Why are you in the bathroom if you know he's just been?
Just avoid going in there for a while. Am I missing something?!

If the smell is bad opening a window and / or using the extractor fan will take ages to make a difference - sometimes literally hours!

My DH is bad and so is my mum so it's not just a man thing. Difference is, my dad is outspoken about the problem and after trying different things my mum has found that matches work best.

BTW my mum and DH have very different diets. They are both toxic smelling but not in the same league as some people with bowel problems- we had someone at work who'd had surgery and like a pp said, if they did one site staff would be called to investigate as from the smell you would think a major sewer had exploded. I felt awful for the poor person - for people like these discreet, effective products like vipoo are a godsend.

Clearly my own produce and that of many on this thread smells of roses

One of the women at work bought it for a particularly smelly culprit at work who seems to visit the loo for his constitutional every single morning and stinks the place out! And my goodness it actually works! I've thought about getting one for dh too!

I was going to buy this for my husband but it's £7.99 in our local supermarket!!

YANBU! 😁

Why do his plops smell so bad? Are his farts evil too?

Ok 2 questions:

1. If you spray it pre poo, what if the pooee takes half an hour? Twat on his phone

1. Which scent do you use?

It's £5 in Tesco, bottle lasts forever.
I like the Fruity scent one, I found Lemon too strong

I prefer febreeze.

Have a candle burning in the loo for poos, works like magic.

We have a rule in our house which is easily trained into the men of the house. You can not leave after a no 2 until youve checked the loo (made sure it's clean) and either sprayed or lit a candle before firmly closing the door. It took 2 weeks of asking every time anyone went to the loo for the message sank in. Now we have no problems.

Unsafe with candles where children are so vi poo is the easy answer.

I don’t like the smell of febreeze. If the lemon is strong it might be just what DH needs!

Op - re his farts... my DP was the same, absolutely evil fog, several times a hour day.

We both went on a low-carb way-of-eating and cutting out bread and wheat made a huge difference. No farts at all. He still avoids wheat now, but eats other carbs (potatoes, rice etc) and his bowels are clean (as they can be)

This thread is in danger of having as many responses as that for the man who picked up his daughter at work.

Open windows preferable to chemicals in my view, especially if not the result of a medical condition.
