You have to consider only two things really:

  • Maybe, just maybe, something which was designed to kill the bacteria and remove the residue of things that came in contact with fresh or at most rotten food, is also totally effective at doing the same for things that came in contact with fecal mater and with toiled cleaning chemicals. Or maybe not.
  • Do you for a toilet brush need the level of cleaniness achieved by a dishwasher, and if not are there other reasonably simple methods to achieve the required level of cleaniness for it?

In the absence of actual scientific studies that provided an answer for the "is a household dishwater entirelly effective for fecal mater and toilet cleaning chemicals contamination" question with a high degree of certainty, the consideration on whether to do this or not boils down to: "Is a dishwasher level of cleaniness for a toilet brush worth the risk that the dishwasher might not deal with fecal mater or toilet cleaning chemical contamination correctly?"

Personally, I don't think it's worth the risk.

This is far too reasonable of a comment for shitposting. I'm going to need someone to shit this up a bit, please.

Either your toilet brush is too clean, or your dishes are too shitty. Stop it with your nasty ass dishwasher.

That's better, thanks.

This is a very reasonable post.

Here is another reasonable approach which is simpler. Isolation and containment is the best way to prevent spread of bacteria from one place to another. Minimising taking any items from the toilet to the kitchen, minimises the spread of bacteria between the two places.

So without any scientific study or evidence specifically to dishwashers and toilet brushes, we can make a reasonable assumption that taking a toilet brush from the toilet to the kitchen is a bad idea and should be avoided.

I doubt this is real, but if it were and I were the poster I would also isolate and contain that home. I would erradocate the movement of me from any other location to that home.
