Walmart Worker Warns Shoppers About Restroom Danger Here's What to Check

WPBN: A Walmart employee is cautioning women against using the store’s facilities, claiming that there are significant health risks lurking within.

The public service notice was given by the employee, Devan, in a TikTok video that has received 611,000 views and a great deal of worry.

Before disclosing that the toilet paper in the facilities was the issue, Devan said, “This pertains to men and women, but mainly women, and you’re going to see why.”

The staff advised customers to check the toilet paper roll dispensers to see if IV drug users had cleaned their needles before having a pee or bowel break inside the store.

Devan displayed an image of a toilet roll with blood-like specks in the video.

“This is from needle-using junkies going into the bathroom, taking that cover that’s over it [the toilet roll dispenser] off, sticking their needles in there and cleaning their needles,” Devan asserted.

Since needles aren’t always bloody after usage, he continued, it’s crucial to look for pin-like holes even if there isn’t any blood on the roll.

“If you wanna be safe, take the cover off, check the toilet paper. If it looks like that, get up and throw that s–t in the trash,” he stated.

To be cautious, he advised Walmart customers to carry their own wipes. While viewers reported seeing similar items in other public facilities, Devan claimed to have personally observed blood-speckled paper once or twice in Walmart.

“Saw this in a small café in Rome Italy. it’s a worldwide dilemma,” one stated.

Others, meanwhile, expressed gratitude to Devan for his PSA after being taken aback by the disclosure. This is not the first time a TikTok user has alerted their followers to the danger.

A photo of a toilet paper roll with long, thin, colorless streak markings and tiny crimson flecks was provided by TikTok tipster Dane Jones last year.
