Introduction
Black stains on toilet floors can be stubborn and unsightly, often caused by mold, mildew, hard water deposits, or accumulated grime. While commercial cleaners may help, they often contain harsh chemicals that can be harmful to your health and the environment. Fortunately, there’s a natural, effortless way to get rid of these stains using simple household ingredients. In this guide, we'll show you an easy and effective method to restore your toilet floor’s cleanliness without the hassle.
Ingredients
To naturally remove black stains from your toilet floor, you’ll need:
½ cup baking soda
½ cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional for extra freshness)
1 teaspoon hydrogen peroxide (for tough stains)
Warm water
A soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush
A microfiber cloth or sponge
Instructions
Prepare the Cleaning Paste
In a small bowl, mix baking soda and white vinegar to form a thick paste.
Add lemon juice for extra stain-fighting power and a fresh scent.
Apply to the Stains
Spread the paste generously over the black stains.
Let it sit for about 15–20 minutes to break down the grime and buildup.
Scrub Gently
Using a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush, scrub the stains in circular motions.
For persistent stains, add a few drops of hydrogen peroxide and let it sit for another 10 minutes.
Rinse and Wipe
Pour warm water over the treated area to rinse off the paste.
Wipe with a microfiber cloth or sponge to reveal a clean and stain-free surface.
Serving and Storage Tips
Serving: While this is not a food recipe, using this method regularly will keep your bathroom looking spotless.
Storage: You can pre-mix a batch of the cleaning paste and store it in an airtight container for up to a week. Shake or stir before use, as the ingredients may settle.
