Today, toilet paper is one of the basic hygiene products. However, it was not always like that, and it appeared in Polish homes only in the 1950s. Many of us would be able to imagine normal functioning without it. Previously, people managed using old materials or newspapers.
How should toilet paper be hung? Consider whether you are hanging it from the outside or inside
Seth Wheeler, an American entrepreneur and founder of a toilet paper company, started a new era in personal hygiene. As early as 1891, he included information in his patent that clearly states how to properly hang toilet paper. In the diagram, he drew a roll with the end coming out from the top. Its development should therefore take place from the outside, and all other options are incorrect and less comfortable.
How to hang toilet paper correctly? Consequences of hanging the roll incorrectly
The incorrect way to hang toilet paper can have negative health consequences. A roll that is in the “under” position can increase the risk of spreading bacteria. This is mainly because in this orientation our fingers are more likely to touch the walls, potentially leaving bacterial deposits. On the other hand, the “over” position usually means that we only touch the paper that we will use.
