Bathrooms
Shared bathrooms need special attention: they are cleaned at need, and at least twice per week (see Cleaning).
Daily Use
Clean up after yourself immediately: wipe splashes from the sink, counter, and mirror.
Remove hair from the drain after each shower.
Ventilate during and after showers to prevent mold — open the window when possible.
Hang towels and bathmats to dry; don't leave wet towels on the floor.
Keep showers reasonably brief: water is a precious resource here.
Use biodegradable soaps and shampoos — our drains feed back into the land (see Grey Waters).
Flush only toilet paper, nothing else.
If you use the last of the toilet paper, replace it; if supplies are running low, tell the stewards.
Turn off the lights when leaving.
Cleaning (at need, at least twice per week)
Toilet — clean the bowl with brush and cleaner; wipe seat, lid, exterior, and flush handle.
Sink and mirror — clean the basin, wipe the counter, remove spots from the mirror.
Shower — scrub the floor and walls, clean soap dishes, check the drain.
Floor — sweep and mop, including corners and behind the door; leave it dry.
Finish up — empty the rubbish bin, restock toilet paper and soap.
Bathroom cleaning is part of the shared home-care routine coordinated during the lunation. If you notice a bathroom needs cleaning outside the schedule, just do it.
Report to the Stewards
Leaks, clogs, or a running toilet
Persistent mold or moisture
Broken fixtures or missing supplies
Problems with hot water
Clean bathrooms are one of the clearest signs of a community that cares for itself — thank you for doing your part.
