6. Clean the Drains
- Prevent clogs in your sink by cleaning the pipes every two months. Pour ½ cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by ½ cup of vinegar. Let it bubble, then flush it with boiling water to clear out residue. You can use this method for the garbage disposal too.
7. Disinfect Bath Toys
- If your kids have bath toys, make sure to clean and disinfect them at least once a month. Soak the toys in a mixture of warm water and ½ cup of vinegar for 10 minutes, then air-dry to eliminate bacteria and mold.
8. Black Tea for Mirrors
- Instead of window cleaner, use cooled black tea to clean your mirrors. Pour it into a spray bottle, spritz your mirror, and wipe it clean with newspaper for a streak-free shine.
9. Clean the Toilet Brush
- Don’t forget to clean the tool that cleans the toilet! Soak your toilet brush in an all-purpose cleaner or bleach solution for about 20 minutes to disinfect and remove grime.
10. Wash the Shower Curtain
- Your plastic shower curtain liner can go in the washing machine! Wash it with a couple of towels using gentle soap, and add ½ cup of baking soda to the wash cycle and ½ cup of vinegar to the rinse cycle. Let the curtain air-dry for best results.
With these tips, you can achieve a spotless bathroom without spending your whole day cleaning!
