He just mopped the floor, came into the bathroom. I had just done the kids bath and was cleaning the bathroom. He stuck the mop down the loo, then left it there. I was stood aghast. He then came back flushed the loo with the mop stood in it.

I pointed out the loo wasn't clean, I hadn't cleaned it. (He NEVER cleans the loo) He didn't see the problem. So I said, you just flushed a dirty mop in a dirty loo, the mop you have cleaned the kitchen floor with. He still didn't see the problem. I told him to soak the mop in a bleach solution.

AIBU? To wash a mop in the loo is just gross. Shock

Thisismytimetoshine · 01/03/2020 23:27

Yuck 🤮

AwdBovril · 01/03/2020 23:28

Tell him he'll be eating his dinner off the floor in future. After washing the floor with the mop in question. (Lighthearted. Sort of...)

Lovely

I've never done this, but....if you have a super clean loo, stick it in after, flush it, maybe it's not a bad shout. Clean loo tho.

CheeseKiev · 01/03/2020 23:29

I couldn’t even laugh at that, that is absolutely disgusting Envy

steff13 · 01/03/2020 23:32

That's gross. But I also think mops are gross.

Topseyt · 01/03/2020 23:34

I can't work out what the fuck he was thinking! What a twatty thing to do!

I sometimes leave the mop head sitting in a solution of something like zoflora, but in general I find it best to replace them about every two or three months. months.

SleepyNightOwl · 01/03/2020 23:34

steff13 what do you use then? A steam mop or floor wipes? I love a mop. I have two heads and they go in the machine after each use.

BritneyPeedOnALadybug · 01/03/2020 23:35

Clean the sink with his flannel.

LemonFrenzy · 01/03/2020 23:37

Disgusting. Surprised it didn't overflow though.

PixieDustt · 01/03/2020 23:41

Clean the toilet with his toothbrush next.
What a skank!

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 01/03/2020 23:43

Oh wow ShockGrin

Why doesn't he just put it in the washing machine?

FoamingAtTheUterus · 01/03/2020 23:44

For goodness sake 😂😂😂

Mind you I can't say much having poured a tray of beef fat down the sink earlier Hmm

steff13 · 01/03/2020 23:44

I use a steam cleaner

Mummyshark2019 · 01/03/2020 23:44

Disgusting. Wtaf was he thinking.....

QueenOfOversharing · 01/03/2020 23:45

I laughed too - but I did vote YANBU

Samtsirch · 02/03/2020 00:02

I also laughed my head off, necessity is the mother of invention....
Perhaps he is hoping that you will ban him from all cleaning duties in future?

Candymay · 02/03/2020 00:07

That’s absolutely disgusting. I’d have to get a new mop and I would do without the man.

YakkityYakYakYak · 02/03/2020 00:33

What?! Although to be fair most mops are pretty gross anyway cause you can’t really clean them properly. Tell him to get an e-cloth mop then he can put it in the washing machine afterwards instead of the toilet!

morriseysquif · 02/03/2020 00:36

I'm glad it isn't just me. He seemed clueless.

Mop head chucked now.
