If there’s one thing I don’t like is cleaning a bathroom and the part I hate the most is cleaning the toilet. Let’s face it…I think everyone hates cleaning toilets but it’s something that has to be done.
For a long time I used the regular toilet cleaners you can buy at any store but a lot of these are made with toxic chemicals, like bleach. I don’t want my kids anywhere near ingredients like that and much less somewhere where they’re going to be sitting for a while.
I started using this DIY all-purpose cleaner to clean our bathroom but there were times when the toilet just needed a good scrubbing. Today I’m going to share 2 ways how to scrub clean your toilet.
The easiest way and the one I use when I’m doing just a quick clean is to sprinkle baking soda inside the toilet, wait a few minutes and then I spray the all-purpose cleaner and scrub it off. I like using this brush for that.
The other way I do this is by preparing a toilet scrubber. I clean our toilets weekly but I use this toilet cleaner every 2 weeks or so, or sooner if the toilet got dirtier than usual. This scrub is easy to make and works awesome.
You can also use this to clean your sink or tub when it gets too dirty.

Hello, oils are not as costly as some think. you don’t utilize a considerable measure. you just need a little generally times.
