  1. This is just another in a long list of reasons why you need to stop using toilet paper, or at least lower your usage. Add Bathroom Bidet Sprayers to all your bathrooms and you won't even need toilet paper any more, just a towel to dry off! Don’t worry, you can still leave some out for guests and can even make it the soft stuff without feeling guilty. It's cheap and can be installed without a plumber; and runs off the same water line to your toilet. You'll probably pay for it in a few months of toilet paper savings. Available at www.bathroomsprayers.com these sprayers are clean, green and soon now can even save you money on your taxes.
