HOW FAILING TO PUT DOWN THE TOILET LID CAN SPREAD BACTERIA THROUGHOUT THE TOILET CUBICLE 

Dr Lisa Ackerley, Professorial Fellow at the Royal Society of Public Health, warns of the 'sneeze effect' when flushing the toilet.
Failing to put the toilet lid down before flushing means bacteria is sprayed and can cover surfaces as far away as 20 feet.
She said: ‘If you go to the toilet and you don’t put the lid down before you flush, when you do flush the germs that are in the toilet will spread around the toilet cubicle.
‘This means they could land on the toilet seat or toilet paper itself and that means they could be spread on your hands and other surfaces later on.’

To combat the sneeze effect, use an antibacterial seat cleaner to wipe the germs away, she added.
