How do others deal with urine stains around the toilet?

[TellEmAboutTheHoneyMummy]

I am having trouble removing regular urine stains from DH around the toilet. It is becoming a bone of contention between us and ends up with raised voices when we discuss it. He tried aiming better and sitting down but the problem was just as bad.

On a daily basis there are orange stains down the front of the toilet and on the sides of the floor. These clear up easily with bleach spray but the silicon sealant does not. I see the marks every time I go in and I am embarrassed for others to use the toilet when they visit, I make them go downstairs.

The rows between DH and me is over why can’t it get less of a problem and why doesn’t he clean it more often? He says he wipes it up.

I am thinking of replacing the white sealant with black.

in the 70s we had grim smelly toilet maps. Should we get two of these mats and wash them regularly? I hate them though.

How do you deal with this? What should I do?

My DH would be cleaning it himself! Disgusting to not have basic clean toilet habits. A toilet mat splashed with urine? Yuk 1000 times over. Why have you married this Moron? I would be livid. Does he wash his hands? How long has he been like this? No respect for you or your living conditions. Just dreadful. No answers but he needs to change! Tell his mum what he’s doing!

My DH doesn’t urinate on the floor (or if he does, he cleans it before I see it). Raise your bar, OP.

Lots of bleach! I’m suprised at how much mess he’s making though. Even my 10 year old has never been this bad!

I think shaving foam can help also (check in Google or YouTube) but i believe it’s good to neutralise odors

Oh that’s grim OP. Dirty beast . He needs to be cleaning it up.

Eraser sponges are good for this. I have trained the offender.

I'd be more concerned that his pee is orange. Is he ok?

He tried aiming better and sitting down but the problem was just as bad.

Well he's not trying very hard is he. How is he pissing down the front of the toilet if he is sitting down?

Probably drinks Tango.

Ummm angle of the dangle. When sitting if the angle isn’t right pee escapes between the seat and toilet bowl. Depending on the volume/stream the beginning flow and end flow don’t always go where the mid stream urine goes.
He might be unable to “see” the issue due to belly or clothing.
My suggestion would be to watch, see what the physical problem is, then have him take ownership and responsibility to clean up. If his pee is orange concentrated, he might be dehydrated and his urine volume might be too low for a good solid urine stream. Which might simply mean drinking more water.

I got rid of the boyfriend and the stains got rid of themselves.

“How do you deal with this?” This isn’t a normal problem most people are dealing with with the adults in their house?!

How vile that he pisses on the floor and expects you to clean it up. Absolutely rank.

Tell him if he doesn't sit down while pissing you're leaving him and he is on bathroom cleaning duty for the next ten years.

are you sure it’s him
Is it hard water area with high mineral content in water
or possibly the toilet has been cleaned with something too abrasive some the surface stains incredible easy

only time I’ve seen orange stain was in a bath and it come from the old style taps in the bath

Maybe a little duck in the bowl and stand over him whilst he learns to aim...

I assume he's not a 3yo? There's no excuse.

It would be a red card offence for me. I'm not a skivvy for a pisstaker.

LTB. It’s utterly disgusting.

Bleach bleach and more bleach

He sounds like a disrespectful pig.

That said, if he spills piss, then if it’s wiped with a baby wipe immediately, it will come straight off any hard surface or silicone sealant. Leaving it is the problem. I wouldn’t like to be spraying bleachy stuff so much.

I would put baby wipes (and a bin) next to the toilet and tell him to make sure there is no piss left on the toilet or floor or sealant, every time he uses the toilet.

Christ on a bike. I'm a man, I lived on my own for 28 years, then 10 more with the late wife. It's a simple rule: if you sprinkle while you tinkle, be sweet and wipe the seat. Or floor, or tiles, or ceiling, or wherever it goes.

WTF is wrong with these men? Do they have so little self respect? It's not rocket science FFS.

Everytime he does it, call him in and he cleans it. Again and again, until he gets it.

I would have thought that this is the only thing to do.

I am in my 60s, had a few boyfriends & been married twice & never have I cleaned up their pee or needed to!

Is he unwell?

He does realise his willy needs to be inside the bowl if he’s sitting down?

Why on earth can't a grown man aim properly?! And you shouldn't be clearing up his mess.Not sure why it is staining so much....is he severely dehydrated?!

To be fair my toddler struggles with this on the potty sometimes 😂

Bleach only masks the stain. He needs to clean it up from the whole toilet (with attention to detail) completely, hand wash basin and floor, with disinfectant first and bathroom or kitchen cleaner: EVERY SINGLE TIME he uses the lavatory. Also he needs to disinfect the taps, flushing handle, and door handle/lock at the same time. Leave all the cleaning implements and liquids in the lavatory ready for him along with a pack of disposable cloths.

p.s. I am a hard woman and won't stand for any nonsense: Did this with some male family members!

LTB 🤮
