For mildew removal from grout, utilize a toothbrush and bleach. Addressing mildew promptly prevents it from spreading. Use an old electric toothbrush to make scrubbing easier and remember to reseal your grout semi-annually.
Steam Clean
Spray the bathroom walls, ceiling, and counters with a cleaner, and then let super hot shower steam work with the cleaner. After allowing it to sit in the steamy conditions for 20-30 minutes, wipe everything down.
Invisible Cleaning
Every couple of months, clean your bathroom sink pipes to prevent clogs by pouring in a mixture of 1/2 cup baking soda and 1/2 cup of vinegar, followed by a rinse with boiling water after a few bubbling minutes.
Toy Sanitization
For families with children, clean bath toys at least monthly. Soak them in a solution of warm water and vinegar (1/2 cup of vinegar per gallon of water) for a minimum of 10 minutes and allow them to air-dry.
Tea for Mirror Cleaning
Brew some black tea, allow it to cool, and then pour it into a spray bottle. Apply it to mirrors and wipe with newspaper for a streak-free shine. The tea can be saved and reused.
Toilet Brush Care
Sanitize the toilet brush by soaking it in all-purpose cleaner or bleach for approximately 20 minutes to rid it of accumulated germs.
Machine-Washable Shower Curtain
Machine-wash your plastic liner along with a few towels, utilizing gentle soap and adding baking soda in the wash cycle and vinegar in the rinse. Allow the curtain to air-dry.
By adopting these tips, you ensure a gleaming bathroom without having to dedicate an entire weekend to the chore, creating a clean, inviting space with minimized effort.
