They all shed at least a little but it's a brand thing. I buy whatever 2+ ply is on sale with no loyalty (I have bidets too) and some are definitely worse than others for debris when torn off the roll.

You still need to dry your ass and vulva with a bidet.
As a frequent bidet user---no, you do not. What?
Is it the toilet paper? Say you move the toilet paper somewhere else and only bring some in when you go, is it still dusty?
OP, how often do you think you are supposed to clean the bathroom?
I know I don't clean it often enough but I also don't think that dust should happen after like two days of a deep clean
It doesn't.
Personally I think the bidet is the problem - you aren’t going through tp quickly enough. It has more time to fall apart.
All I got is try other brands and clean more often.
While you say your partner is unwilling to switch, there are still multiple ultra soft brands. For example I’ve switched from Charmin Ultrasoft to Kirkland (Costco). It seems just as soft, but it has less dust, its individual sheets are bigger, and it’s cheaper
Yeah, that dust is getting on your vulva, I have a bidet too. I prefer papers that are similar to scotts, where there is no dust. That extra soft stuff is aweful.
I'd buy what I wanted and just use it myself if my husband cared.
You're probably buying ultra soft fluffy cloud nothing but air toilet paper. You're also probably not using a bidet.
I've never had toilet paper like that. I buy supermarket own brand stuff here in the UK. Even when I've bought cheap stuff I've not had that issue.
Switch to a different brand. The paper they're using is bad of it's flaking off all the time.
Okay some people are answering with Bidet as a solution, which makes no sense (you are not going to hose down the bathroom are you?)
A photo could be useful in diagnosis, but maybe not. It could be the TP brand, it could also be regular dust since you mention it gets behind the toilet seat too.
Are you near a window? The worst cases of dust in the bathrooms that I've seen were caused by debris from the window. It doesn't even need to be a large window. My money is on the TP brand from the sounds of it
I have a bidet with toilet paper to dry off/for guests/for various other uses for toilet paper.
Not near a window and the dust is thicker and primarily builds up below the toilet paper roll and on the holder. It's not the same as regular dust build up. I mitigate by placing the bin under the roll but it still gets everywhere.
It's hard to get a picture but this is the thicker dust on my toilet brush, which sits just next to the bin/toilet.
You need to clean more. Plain and simple.
That is not "toilet paper dust". That's filth.
I don't mean that in a derogatory way. You literally just have to clean more often.
I can see the fuzz. Yes it's probably the brand of paper. That's a nice granite brush holder you got there.
answering with Bidet as a solution, which makes no sense (you are not going to hose down the bathroom are you?)
It makes perfect sense. If you don't use TP, there's no paper dust in the first place.
You can't just leave your ass moist, why aren't y'all using TP to dry off???
That's if the dust is caused by the paper.
What else are they doing in there for there to get that much paper dust? Book binding?!
Man, it's getting harder and harder to determine if people are joking or not. I am quite sure you are, but just in the case that you are serious, OP never mentioned paper dust to start with, just dust.
There's no way they didn't mean the layer of tp dust that comes from some extra soft brands of toilet paper.
I've never seen this.
Everyone wipes down their bathrooms before company comes over, and lives with a layer of TP dust and pubes the rest of the time.
Little bit of spray cleaner and a cotton rag.
Enter the ~~matrix~~ developed world
You still need to wipe after using a bidet. Whether you're wiping water off your butt or poop, I highly doubt in either case anyone is using that towel on their face afterwards, so it's moot. You're either keeping poo towels or you're wiping with paper that gets flushed with the poo. If you think the former is more developed then so be it, but my diet doesn't necessitate power washing my asshole after pooping and keeping poo towels is a non-starter for me.
I'm just spreading the ~~cheeks~~ word
And I'm just being cheeky
I don't understand these things. All I've ever tried to use are waaayy too strong and cause water to splash everywhere. I do have an under-the-toilet-seat one and I like that very much, butI never got the hand of the handheld ones
The bum gun does take some practice.
You pretty much shuffle forward a little, position the BG behind the disaffected area, at an obtuse angle to your sphincter, ease on, I mean really ease on the gas until you can confirm that all splash is going down into the bowl, finally you can really pucker up and hit it.
The thing is... you still need some TP to dry off after.
The thing about the ones I've tried is that they all did either go full blast or not at all
I needed the laugh this brought on 😂. Spot on tutorial on how to bidet correctly 👍
ah I've yet to try the integrated ones ! Regarding the flow, I guess it should be controlled somewhere upstream
Use Izal paper.
