• Biffy Bidet Improves Hygiene in Children
  

  BOULDER CITY, NV--(Marketwire - October 15, 2008) - According to the US Census Bureau, there are approximately 40 million children under the age of 10 living in the United States.

To help address these and other issues, a Nevada-based company is offering the Biffy, a special bidet attachment that connects to most toilets in less than five minutes.

  With a gentle, one-step motion, the Biffy's showerhead-style spray produces a fan of water to a user's bottom, thoroughly rinsing the area clean.
