Household cleaning hacks that use simple ingredients can be both surprising and effective. One such hack involves using salt, a common kitchen staple, for cleaning your toilet. While it may sound unconventional, pouring a glass of salt in the toilet can have remarkable cleaning benefits. Let’s explore how this method works and the results you can expect.
1. The Cleaning Power of Salt:
Salt, or sodium chloride, is known for its abrasive and deodorizing properties, making it an excellent cleaning agent. It’s especially effective for tackling hard water stains, mineral deposits, and mildew.
2. How to Use Salt for Toilet Cleaning:
Ingredients Needed: All you need is a glass (about 8 ounces) of plain table salt.
Method: Pour the salt into the toilet bowl, making sure to sprinkle it around the sides and under the rim where stains are most likely to occur.
Waiting Time: Allow the salt to sit in the bowl for at least 2-3 hours, or overnight for tough stains.
Scrubbing: After the waiting period, use a toilet brush to scrub the bowl, focusing on areas with stains and deposits.
Flushing: Finally, flush the toilet to rinse away the salt and loosened grime.
