The miracle ingredient we all have in our pantry

The miracle ingredient is  salt, which is not only very useful in the kitchen  for preparing delicious dishes, but is also capable of disinfecting the toilet completely, eliminating germs and bacteria.

To prepare the miracle solution, mix the salt and baking soda directly into the toilet water and leave it to sit overnight. We prefer the night because it is the only time of day when the toilet is used the least. The  more salt and baking soda left in the toilet water,  the better.

Salt, in particular, removes scale and dirt residue. There is a second foolproof method, which consists of using salt dissolved in hot water, this solution is particularly useful for  cleaning the toilet seat and lid  .

Other natural remedies to clean the bathroom and remove dirt from the toilet

In addition to salt, you can  use many other natural products  that you have at home, such as baking soda, which is able to whiten the inside of the bowl. It is applied every 15 days on  the internal ceramic and on the toilet brush  . Then, it is left to act for hours. Once the allotted time has elapsed, take the brush and rub it firmly against the walls of the toilet. This operation is to remove the encrusted dirt from both the toilet and the brush. After performing the operation, remember to rinse the water.

Baking soda  is also added to lemon juice  , which is unbeatable against yellow stains. Two glasses of baking soda and one of lemon juice are enough, together they create a creamy paste that immediately adheres to the inside walls of the toilet. You have to let a few hours pass, once the inside of the toilet has been rinsed,  the result will be formidable.  Obviously, for the most stubborn encrustations it is necessary to repeat the operation several times. For example, rust hardly disappears and therefore requires more patience and, in some cases, even effort.

Finally, you can try  using a second compound, consisting of baking soda and white vinegar  . Mix them in hot water, which should be boiled in a pot. Wait half an hour and then flush the toilet. There may also be excess foam, in which case rub a little more with the brush and flush the toilet again.

The old Coca Cola remedy

The old remedy involving Coca-Cola never fails. The fizzy drink is effective against  any type of stubborn encrustation  present inside and outside the toilet bowl. It is poured into the bowl and then left to act for several hours.

Finally, the toilet is brushed and flushed. The toilet is clean and shiny, free of germs and bacteria.
