There several schools of thought on this subject. The sloths venture to the ground to urinate and defecate by digging a hole and then cover it about once a week. Some think it's to hide where they spend their time in the tree(s) and this brief endeavor may provide a chance meeting of a female for breeding purposes. They do, however, defecate during storms to possibly hide the noise they make, thus hiding their whereabouts in the canopy of the trees.

Is it safe to vacuum clean wet bathroom floor?

It is safe to vacuum a clean wet bathroom floor only if you use a wet vaccuum designed for that purpose. If you just use a regular vaccum, you run the risk of short-circuiting your vacuum and damaging the insides.Other Safety Tips:Even with wet-dry vacuums, make sure the insulation on the cord is in good condition without any breaks or signs of wear.Try not to stand in the water, if you can help it. Definitely while plugging in (or unplugging) and switching on/off.
