Introduction
Is your toilet looking dull, stained, or suffering from stubborn limescale buildup? You don’t need harsh chemicals to restore its shine! The most powerful descaler is already in your kitchen—natural, effective, and safe for the environment. Let’s explore how you can deep-clean your toilet effortlessly using a simple homemade solution.
Ingredients:
1 cup white vinegar
½ cup baking soda
1 lemon (optional, for extra freshness)
10 drops essential oil (optional, for fragrance)
Toilet brush
Instructions:
Prep the Bowl: Pour the white vinegar into the toilet bowl, ensuring it coats the affected areas. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to break down mineral deposits.
Add Baking Soda: Sprinkle the baking soda into the bowl. You’ll notice a fizzing reaction—this helps lift stains and dissolve limescale.
Scrub Gently: Use a toilet brush to scrub the surface, focusing on stubborn spots.
Let It Sit: Allow the mixture to work for another 10-15 minutes before flushing.
Freshen Up (Optional): Squeeze fresh lemon juice into the bowl for a pleasant scent, or add a few drops of essential oil.
Serving and Storage Tips:
For deep cleaning, use this method once or twice a week.
Store white vinegar and baking soda separately in your cleaning supplies for easy access.
If dealing with persistent limescale, leave the solution in the bowl overnight before scrubbing and flushing.
