Cleaning the toilet

essential hygiene

The toilet is obviously, by far, one of the elements to be kept constantly clean and sanitized. Most germs lurk behind and under the seat, although everyone believes that the dirtiest part of the toilet is the toilet.

How to clean the toilet?

Maybe with natural products, which will destroy most of the bacteria. Let's see some 100% natural remedies to clean the toilet:

  • Half a cup of baking soda
  • 10 drops of essential oil

We sprinkle the walls of the toilet and also the brush with this mixture and let it rest all night ... the next morning we will find everything clean and sanitized.

We could also make an antibacterial spray cleaner by mixing:

  • 2 cups of water
  • 4 tablespoons of Marseille soap
  • 1 tablespoon of lavender essential oil
  • 10 drops of peppermint

We pour everything into a spray nozzle and spray the surfaces of the toilet top, bottom, front and back with a sponge without rinsing.

Finally, to eliminate the halo that appears at the water level, let's prepare:

  • 1 cup of borax
  • 1 cup of white vinegar
  • 10 drops of lavender
  • 5 drops of lemon essential oil

Let's leave it all overnight and see what the result!
