Bathroom cleaning tips that really work

  1. Get a basket or a bucket with dividers to store all your bathroom cleaning supplies in it. Shove it under the sink and pull it out whenever you want. To maintain your shower clean and free from hard water stains permanently, set a small bin with a microfiber cloth, a sponge and all-purpose cleanser of your choice close to the shower and make sure to reach out for it regularly. Clean up your shower tub, its walls and doors every 3-4 days. Keep your shower curtains straight and closed even when no one is in the shower. This way they’ll dry faster and the water won’t sit in the folds encouraging mold growth. Wash the curtains every once in a while together with the bathroom towels. Soak them in borax (1 part), vinegar (1 part) and water (2 parts) mix in order to get rid of mold and mildew.bucket with bathroom cleaning supplies
  2. I don’t know why, but most people don’t pay attention to the ceiling while cleaning their bathrooms. They wipe the wall tiles and the floor, they clean all the appliances, decorative things, rugs, curtains and so on. Bathroom ceiling is like the floor under the furniture – the place some people rarely look over. And if they did, they’d be unpleasantly surprised with what they’d see. Bathroom moisture affects ceiling as well. It gets covered with grim, different spots and annoying mold and mildew overtime. You need to get rid of that to achieve a better-looking bathroom and prevent mold from outgrowing and travelling onto your sparkling clean tiled walls.
    Deep cleaning ceiling fan in your bathroom should be the first step of the entire process, as the dust and dirt from it may fall all over the place and mess up your previous cleanup. When that’s done, find a mop with a long handle, remove the old sponge, replace it with a perfectly clean one and dip it in a bucket with water and vinegar solution. Mop up the ceiling. It’s also good to wipe it with the all-purpose bathroom cleaner, as well as counters and walls. Microfiber cloth will keep the surfaces streak-free. This ceiling cleaning procedure will be just enough if you don’t have significant mildew issues.

  3. Grout is porous and absorbs oils from shampoos, conditioners, soaps and moisture in general. That often leads to mildew growth that can spread to the tiles it surrounds. Proper bathroom ventilation may prevent extensive mold and mildew growth. But unfortunately, this problem appears in most bathrooms sooner or later. Demolish the mildew with a mix of 10 parts of water and 1 part of bleach and a brush with soft bristles. Go over the surfaces with a pH-neutral solution to get rid the bleach residue. Mold and mildew are really difficult to clean, so it might take you a couple of goes to remove them completely. If that doesn’t work, don’t risk your health any longer.

  4. Toilet cleansers and disinfectants need a little bit of time in order to contact with the toilet bowl’s surface to react with the grime buildup and kill the germs. So, if you don’t want to scrub your toilet bowl furiously, you should spread your toilet cleanser all over the bowl, close the cap and leave the cleanser to sit for 10 minutes or so. Then, you won’t have to withstand the toilet smell while cleaning the bowl. But the best thing is that a couple of brush moves will do the job. Once the bowl is clean and not smelly anymore, clean the toilet brush and its holder. Cleanse the seat and the bowl’s exterior with disinfecting wipes. Again, take your time and move the wipes around the seat slowly to make sure most germs are gone. A cup of baking soda poured into the toilet bowl may be an amazing (and really cheap) solution to get rid of stains on your toilet. Don’t be afraid to use a pumice stone or borax and lemon juice mix to get rid of mineral deposits. Professional appliance cleaners also use a special electric pressure washer to get rid of significant buildup. It works wonders.cleaning toilet bowl with a brush in a bathroom
  5. Always close the seat when flushing the toilet. The matter is that some kinds of germs fly out of the toilet bowl when you flush the toilet. And then, they lend on different surfaces in your bathroom, including toothbrushes, skin care products and contacts that sit on your countertops. That’s why you need to clean out a shelve in your bathroom cabinet and store those things in it. You do not want to stuff your mouth with toilet germs while brushing your teeth, do you? Yucky!
  6. Conquer bathroom walls like a champ. Mix a part of borax, 2 parts of baking soda and 2 parts of water. Take an old toothbrush and apply this paste onto the gaps between the bathroom tiles. Scrub with a toothbrush for a little while, rinse the walls with clean soap-free water and proceed to cleaning the walls. Spray them with the most suitable for that particular surface type of cleanser. Wipe them with the help of a large sponge mop to get that done fast and easy. You may also prepare water and vinegar cleanser to soak your mop in. It will make your bathroom tiles clean and shiny.cleaning moldy bathroom tile with a tothbrush
  7. Soak a paper towel in vinegar, wrap it around the base of your sink’s faucet and leave it there overnight. This method will help you get rid of hard water stains and other spots with no scrubbing and heavy duty cleaning solutions involved. Use disinfectant wipes and a little bit of baby oil to clean the faucet, get rid of water stains and make it as shiny as new. Buff the oil into the faucet with the help of paper towel to ensure that the surface isn’t tacky or greasy. If you notice any rust stains on your sinks or bath tubs, attack them with toothpaste. It removes rust stains the best.

    My bathroom grows mold really well, and I need to get rid of it. Thanks for the advice about how you can help your shower curtain by leaving it closed so mold doesn’t grow in the folds. If you find mold in cracks or on walls in would be best to get it cleaned up by a licensed professional.
