Something you may not know – the shape of the ‘Toilet Duck’ bottle is a Swiss invention – that’s now famous all over the world.
And the Post Office is issuing a stamp in honour – which will also smell like the cleaner.
The bottle, shaped like a bird’s neck, was invented and patented in Switzerland in 1980, by Walter Düring-Orlob. The design is to make it easier to spray the product under the toilet rim.
The scented toilet duck stamp is now available - it’s worth CHF 2.50.
