I don't have any white bed linens nor white towels or wash cloths.
But I do keep a small bottle of chlorine bleach on hand to clean the
toilets. Needless to say I'm not going to drinking out of those
toilets but I guess it's a holdover from watching my mother clean our
toilet as a child. I also use a small amount of SoftScrub cleaner
with the bleach; just enough abrasive compound to clean the bowl
without scratching it's surface.

There are many products made especially for sanitizing toilets, bleach
is not a good idea.

One should never mix bleach with any cleanser, it can create a highly
toxic gas that can kill you and/or it can explode and kill you.

Undiluted bleach is extremely corrosive, if you get any on your skin
or in your eyes you need to get medical help immediately... read the
warning on the bleach label.

Folks are much too lax with using bleach... its fumes scar lung
tissue, once damaged lung tissue does not regenerate... same with
eyes. If you can smell the bleach you are blinding/killing yourself.
People who spray chlorine bleach solution to sanitize are nuts.. well,
not nuts, extremely ignorant.

Chlorine bleach really shouldn't be sold to the general public.

I use a bit of chlorine bleach with the SoftScrub with bleach
formula. Maybe that's overkill but I'm not using much bleach in the
toilet and I rarely get the bleach smell.
