Although you may wish you could, you don’t need to hire a maid to get your dingy bathroom sparkling clean! Just follow some of these tips and your bathroom will look like new in no time.
To clean the windows and mirrors in your bathroom, you do not need an expensive cleaning solution. All you need is to mix 1/3 cup white vinegar and ¼ cup rubbing alcohol in a 32 oz spray bottle. Dilute it with water.
Once your mirrors are sparkling clean, you can move onto the other, darker corners of your bathroom. To avoid water spots on your glass doors and shower walls, apply car wax twice a year. It may seem like a strange suggestion, but it helps.
On a more regular basis, you should wipe down your shower – after each use – to avoid build up. Also, natural soap does not cause as much soap scum buildup as other soaps do.
You can spray a citrus-based cleaner into your shower once a week. Make sure to wait about 10 minutes before wiping it down – let the cleaner start to dissolve the dirt. Shower curtains are easy to wash, just stick them in the washing machine.
To eliminate rings around your toilet, pour 1 cup white vinegar into the toilet once a month. To clean up drains, pour one cup baking soda and then one cup white vinegar down the drain. Wait at least an hour and then flush with warm water. Do this once a month to get rid of buildup.
To stop mildew from becoming a problem, spray your bathroom ceiling ever six months with a 50/50 solution of hydrogen peroxide and water. Peroxide is a safe bleach that won’t harm you or the environment. Just spray the mixture on and leave it. If you already have mildew, wait 2 hours and then spray again. Then wait 24 hours and spray again if necessary.
Just follow these bathroom cleaning tips, and you are sure to see a difference in the cleanliness of your bathroom. Now, if you could only keep your car so clean.

| This was very helpful! I love using home remedies instead of store bought products. |
