Why shouldn't you flush the toilet regularly?

Interesting question! Normally, flushing the toilet regularly is good for hygiene, but there are some situations or reasons why people suggest not flushing too often or unnecessarily:

Water Conservation — Flushing toilets uses a lot of clean water (typically 6–13 liters per flush). Not flushing every single time (e.g., for liquid waste or pee) can save a significant amount of water, which is good for the environment and reduces your water bill.

Reduce Environmental Impact — Less flushing means less wastewater going to treatment plants, which lowers energy use and pollution.

Avoid Plumbing Problems — In some rare cases, excessive flushing can cause unnecessary strain on old plumbing or septic systems.

Natural Bacteria Balance — Some suggest that frequently flushing might disrupt the microbial balance in the septic tank or pipes.

Important note: While saving water is good, it’s still essential to flush regularly for solid waste to maintain hygiene and prevent bad odors or bacteria build-up.

So basically:
Don’t flush “too much” unnecessarily (like every time you pee), but flush solids immediately to keep things sanitary and fresh.
