Regular bathroom cleaning is necessary to eliminate grime, bacteria, and mold. Clean bathrooms smell better. Bathrooms are used regularly by a number of people\u2013some of whom may leave it messy. Bathrooms are full of hard-to-clean fixtures like faucets, toilets, drains, mirrors, and vanities. Use some of these tips and tricks to make the job easier and the bathroom cleaner.<\/p>\n
Few people look forward to cleaning bathrooms but using these tips makes the job go quicker and the results more successful.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Vinegar and baking soda are popular inexpensive cleaners in most households. They have many uses in bathrooms.<\/p>\n
Clean your cleaning equipment after every use. Dirty mops, dusters, cloths, and brushes spread dirt around instead of removing it. Dried, crusty, and gritty dusters and cleaning cloths can scratch some surfaces.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t throw out old toothbrushes. They make great cleaning tools for tight hard-to-get-at places like faucets, vanity handles, grout lines, and more. The bristles remove grime and mold.<\/p>\n
A microfiber cleaning cloth on the end of a chopstick also gets into tight spots when you don\u2019t need the friction of a bristle brush.<\/p>\n
Buy and use microfiber cleaning cloths. They trap bacteria and dirt. They don\u2019t leave lint or streaks and clean easily in the washing machine.<\/p>\n

Spray it onto the affected area, let it sit for about 10 minutes, then scrub the area clean.<\/p>\n Get the dust out of the bathroom before cleaning. Dust clogs up cleaning tools and leaves streaks. You may just be moving it around and leaving it stuck in a different spot.<\/p>\n Battery-powered electric bathroom scrubbers make a quick and efficient job of cleaning tubs, toilets, sinks, and tile. There are many options with various attachments available for $50.00 or less. You can also get attachments for electric drills but drills are bulkier and heavier.<\/p>\n An electric toothbrush saves scrubbing effort in small tight spaces. Save the old brush heads for cleaning when you change to a new one.<\/p>\n Toothbrushes remove the bacteria from your mouth, then they dry on the brush until the next use. Electric toothbrushes collect bacteria, saliva, and toothpaste between the brush head and motor.<\/p>\n Soak the bristle parts of toothbrushes in hydrogen peroxide overnight. Remove the brush head from electric toothbrushes and soak them and the motor end. Rinse clean in the morning. Soak toothbrushes in hydrogen peroxide weekly.<\/p>\n Use shaving cream in the bathroom for more than just shaving.<\/p>\n Two aspirins dissolved in water removes soap scum from faucets and sinks and showers. Aspirin works because it is slightly acidic and can substitute for regular cleaners if you run out.<\/p>\n The oil in non-stick cooking spray breaks down and removes lime deposits. It is a safe and easy-to-use cleaner.<\/p>\n Use your hand towel or bath towel to dry faucets and fixtures every time you wash or shower. Removing drips and spray regularly keeps chrome shiny and makes regular cleaning easier. Make sure the floor is dry after showering. Wet dust sticks better to floors, countertops, and toilets. Dry floors are safer to walk on.<\/p>\n Bleach pens make cleaning grout lines easy without bleaching the entire surface. Run the pen over the grout, leave it sit overnight, and wipe it clean with warm water.<\/p>\n Clorox bleach pens are difficult to get (discontinued?) and expensive. Similar products work well on fabric but may not clean grout as effectively.<\/p>\n Silica gel packets absorb moisture. Save a few that come with your purchases and place them in the medicine cabinet. They reduce the humidity that rusts razor blades and affects medicines. The bath fan can\u2019t remove humidity from an enclosed cabinet.<\/p>\n Used dryer sheets are slightly abrasive. They remove lime deposits from tubs, fixtures, and bathroom tile. Make the slightly damp and rub out the lime.<\/p>\n Dirty wet toilet brushes put back in the holder grow mold and bacteria. After use, disinfect the brush with hydrogen peroxide. Trap the handle between the toilet seat and bowl so it can drip into the toilet. Make sure the brush holder is clean before putting the brush away.<\/p>\n Pumice stone is a soft abrasive that scrubs away limescale, rust, and hard water stains in toilets without damaging the porcelain surface. For best results, lower the toilet\u2019s water level but keep the stained area wet while working on it.<\/p>\n Wiping down showers and tubs after using them is a must to prevent soap scum buildup, streaks, and mold. A shower squeegee makes it easy to remove water drops and mineral deposits from shower doors, tiles, and tubs.<\/p>\n Spread out your shower curtain to get air to the whole thing. An open window or bathroom exhaust fan moves drier air around it. Wet curtains promote mold and mildew growth. They can stay damp between showers if pushed into a bunch.<\/p>\n The post Bathroom Cleaning Tips and Tricks You\u2019ll Wish You Knew<\/a> appeared first on Homedit<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Regular bathroom cleaning is necessary to eliminate grime, bacteria, and mold.
