Non-gel toothpaste works wonders on small stains on sinks, tubs, and tiles. Apply, scrub gently, and rinse for a bright, clean surface.
5. Baking Soda Scrub for Grout
Make a paste of baking soda and water. Apply to grout lines, let sit 10–15 minutes, scrub with an old toothbrush, then rinse. Grout looks refreshed without harsh chemicals.
6. Prevent Mold in the Shower
After each shower, squeegee water off the tiles and glass. Keep a small container of bleach-free mold spray handy for weekly quick spritzes.
7. Coffee Grounds for Drain Odors
Place a small amount of dry coffee grounds in the sink or tub drain, then run hot water. It neutralizes odors naturally.
8. Microfiber Cloth for Daily Wipe Downs
Keep a microfiber cloth near the sink to wipe counters, faucets, and mirrors daily. A quick wipe removes water spots and toothpaste splashes before they build up.
9. Dry Shower Surfaces to Prevent Mildew
After showering, use a towel or squeegee to remove excess water from tiles and tub. Less moisture = less mildew growth.
10. Essential Oils for a Spa-Like Scent
Add a few drops of lavender, eucalyptus, or tea tree oil to a spray bottle of water. Spritz your bathroom for a natural, pleasant aroma that also has antibacterial properties.
