The Homemade Trick That Permanently Prevents Urine Smell From Returning to Your Bathroom

1 cup white vinegar

1/2 cup baking soda

10–15 drops of essential oil (optional, e.g., lavender or tea tree)

Warm water

Instructions:

Clean the Area: Start by thoroughly cleaning the toilet, floor, and surrounding areas with warm water and mild soap.

Apply Vinegar: Pour white vinegar onto the affected areas and let it sit for 5–10 minutes. Vinegar naturally neutralizes ammonia and disinfects surfaces.

Sprinkle Baking Soda: After the vinegar, sprinkle baking soda over the same areas. It will react with vinegar to lift residues and further neutralize odors.

Add Essential Oil (Optional): For a fresh scent, mix a few drops of essential oil into warm water and lightly spray over the area.

Rinse and Dry: Wipe down surfaces with clean water and dry thoroughly.
