Not relevant to the topic, but H2O2, hydrogen peroxide, takes blood out of most fabrics. No stain or residue. Most women know that. We used gallons of it in the ER where I worked for over 20 years. It is wonderful at removing so many stains etc and isn’t expensive nor as environmentally nasty as commercial toilet cleaners. Haven’t used them in ages! Great stuff.
It removes baby formula as well.
Thanks for this. I never knew that!
Best to use it when the stain is fresh and hasn't been laundered yet! If you can soak it a bit in cool water after the stain happens, even better!
@@dracofirex Since most of the blood I removed from clothing with H2O2 was acquired at work … ER nurse … it was almost always fresh. On a lab coat or uniform, both supplied by the hospital. Never wore my own uniforms. We only got one lab coat/week, so we’d order the hydrogen peroxide in huge volumes and went through what added up to gallons in a year! 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
@@Momcat_maggiefelinefan Wow! Yeah I'll bet!
Smart Health workers know about hydrogen peroxide works on blood stains. My dentist advise me not to buy expensive bottles of mouthwash (to much alcohol) use water and couple of drops of hydrogen peroxide (never swallow), mix according to your liking because you might swallow a little on your throat and you will not like it at all. You can also use denture cleaner on your toilet bowl. Have a clean suave day EVERYONE. Thanks for all the tips and sharing.
I had some old "outdated" hydrogen peroxide under the bathroom sink. Not needing it anymore I dumped half the bottle down the toilet with the intention of getting rid of it. Well, the next day some nasty hardened sub water-line stains in the toilet that I had tried many times unsuccessfully to remove had simply disappeared.
Dish scrubbing brush $1.88 works much better and faster. It has a triangle brush shape with short handle that's a breeze to use with any toilet.
I brush my teeth with peroxide. since I was a child. The dentist always told me I was a flawless victory with my smile. Perfect clean and white
Exactly how do you do the peroxide with your toothbrushing?
@sl4983 hi hope all is well ☺️ so I purchase peroxide and the yellow listerine I put both half and half in a cup to gargle my throat and swoosh my gums brush with toothpaste 1st than gargle with the peroxide mix. At 1st you may not like it but I love it and it keeps your mouth health at 100 percent
I love the straight, short to the point vids! That's what I'm trying to do (when I can).
If you’re going to use Hydrogen Peroxide in a toilet like this, make sure that there are NO OTHER cleaning chemicals already being used inside of it.
😂😆😝😆😆😂 shut up!
2nd comment, Come on Man, where's your Sense of adventure!
@@richhauxwell7848 It got Chlorinated.... 😉🤣
Great toilet advice. Had a patient who added Javex bleach and toilet bowl cleaner into his toilet. Created chlorine gas and nearly offed himself! The things you have to deal with in the ER! He survived but had respiratory issues the rest of his days … like the gas attack victims in WW 1. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
Unfortunately she was using "solution of hydrogen peroxide "
And it's only what 3% hydrogen peroxide and the rest just water..
Had it been industrial or lab strength, now that would have been a video!
Another tip if you're using those bleach disks in your tank... don't clean your bowl with ammonia based cleaner (like "The Works" brand). It basically creates gas used in WWI. Learned this the hard way. Had to step outside for 15 min to catch my breath.
I did the bleach and ammonia thing to sanitize my mop. It started smoking and my husband was yelling at me! Luckily it was outside in the carport.
When I worked in the ER a gent came into the department in critical condition. Mixed toilet bowl cleaner and Javex bleach in the bowl. Made the greenish-yellow chlorine gas the Germans used on allied forces in WW1. He survived but had damaged his lungs. Not sure what his recovery was like. Can’t follow their recovery after they’ve been admitted to the ICU
Got gased in basic training by a couple guys who didn’t obey the direction to not mix. Dumped a big jug of each in a mop bucket to clean the mess hall.
Darwin, let it work out
don't use tablets in your tank! it will mess wp your fill and/or float valve. learned this the hard way. ;)
Thank you for sharing Andrea. Thank you for letting me know vinegar eats the rubber away in the tank.
Only if you leave it in there & have too much!
I was just about to look up what to do about that but while I was checking for solutions to a different problem, I found your video! Thanks now I can fix both problems in my bathroom
I love the stuff!! I use it to clean my floors, certain jewelry, stains, etc. Works great, in my toilet bowls, as well! Great video!
Sandra, i use it in my waterpik for oral care and add some to a bath with epsom salt. Do you know if it cleans sterling silver jewelry?
@@gypsygirl9 Have you ever tried using toothpaste for your silver? That is all I ever use for silver jewelry! Works amazingly well, just glop some toothpaste onto the silver and I rub it around with my fingers and let it sit a minute or two, then wipe with clean cloth (see what comes off!) then quick rinse and dry! 🤗
Brilliant hack hydrogen peroxide has multiple uses around the home . I even use to clean and sterilise my bbq 👌👌
First thing is to ALWAYS set your toilet lid on the floor, always!!! I have seen hundreds that people accidently break
I use it in a spray bottle on my pillows & mattress it removes any & all stains
Will it work on carpet?
Hopefully it's a dark colored bottle otherwise the peroxide breaks down and isn't as good any more. Or you could do what she did and just put a spray pump inside the bottle itself. Just a tip
Great tip, thanks 😊
@@mrsmc2612 YES !!
@@mrsmc2612 test on a spot like closet corner first as it may take the color from carpet similar to bleach.
What ever you do don't use any chlorine products in the tank of the toilet! The bowl is fine but not the tank! That chlorine slowly eats at the rubber washers causing the tank to leak! I did that and every 3 months or so I had to replace all the rubber washers!
I use it also in my bathroom sinks down the drain, leave about 1 minute and then open the faucet I can hear bubbles fissiles 2:46 before inlet the water run and it helps keep buildup since we really can’t wash or scrub down there. It works great
Thanks, I can't wait to try this.
Will have to try this! Thanks!
Peroxide is already pretty watered down from the bottle, so if you really want this to work the only way is to be sure it contacts the slimy, grimy, stained surfaces at full strength. That means draining all the water.
Or, you could determine the ratio, then add the necessary %, of 35% hydrogen peroxide.
I’m definitely gonna try it
I don't use any tablets to clean our toilet because we have pets and if someone fails to close the toilet, out pets could try to drink. I clean as needed.
Thanks I will have to try this. I did try it. The process helped but did not eliminate everything
What a great idea to turn the peroxide bottle into a spray bottle. Also, I didn't know that peroxide is a good stain removal on fabric. I am definitely going to try it on stubborn stains.
The peroxide breaks down the protein in some organic stains like blood or similar. I love it
Great for pet stains on carpet!
You can buy peroxide with the sprayer already attached...
When I was kid we taught the school janitor how to properly clean those disgusting toilets. But we used 1/2 sticks and cherry bombs. Cleans them stains right up & next day toilets looked brand new.
And that sir, would be a great video..
Thank you for the tip.
Thank you for the info😃
In the word's of Foghorn Leghorn...watch it fizzzzzzz. It's a good tip, the blue stuff is mostly chlorine which is not good for the parts in your tank. If you live in the city most tap water has more chlorine in it than your pool.... I've tested it ....
I just love your videos! Very helpful
Glad you like them!
THX i am gonna try that right now !!
Outstanding video and presentation.
Thank you kindly!
I just recently subscribed to you and love all the excellent tips you share. Thanks
Thanks for subbing!
Thanks for the tips
Good to know. Thanks for sharing.
👍It worked perfect. Thank you.
You're welcome!
I love the drop-in sanitation products because it keeps me in work replacing the rubber seals destroyed by chlorine. Chlorine cuts the life of the toilet tank seals and refill mechanism from a decade or two down to maybe two or three years if you're lucky. I appreciate you don't want your kids eating a toilet cake, but honestly, there are better solutions to bathroom hygiene! Hydrogen peroxide, which is heavily diluted in the form shown, is a solution I personally use, although I typically turn off the water to the tank, drain and then douse liberally with the peroxide. As for the bowl, this should be cleaned regularly, including the spaces around the toilet if you have a man in the house!
Use a larger long handle brush, otherwise, excellent!
And GLOVES!
This is very creative. I once tried a trick to make the water in the toilet turn yellow.😅😂😮
Love your tips
So glad!
Thank you so much 😊
You're welcome 😊
I'll try this.
Great cleaning hack , always have hydrogen peroxide in the house 👌👌👌
The inside of my tank is brown!! 🤯 so I just dumped some hydrogen peroxide into the tank. Not sure how long to let it sit before I go in with a brush? Thank you for this tip. The tank is something we just don’t think about as often.
Any results?
@kosmosbjm Would you mind sharing your results?
His house exploded.
@@n.s.3410 Yeah.....learned the hard way not to use hydrogen perchlorate instead...
If the toilet tank is brown that could be iron bacteria, and you’d need to get a professional to get your water system cleaned and filtered. There’s options including bleach, ozone or hydrogen peroxide. I’d avoid the bleach option, as ozone and hydrogen peroxide are much healthier. Hydrogen peroxide even kills mold, whereas bleach can actually cause more problems with mold. And bleach is toxic to people.
Although the risk would be relatively small at the likely concentrations, should hydrogen peroxide mix with bleach in the bowl the reaction would be somewhat startling.
First science ever learned but, had to teach my kids.
3% peroxide gives 3% chlorine gas. Not pleasant.
Great idea Thank you so much!!! I always have hydrogen peroxide in the house but now I need more to clean my toilets. We have city water and it is terrible I always have pink & black mold under my faucets (I use rubbing alcohol for those) But I pay a lot of money every month for water and it should be clean water but it’s the opposite! Cleaning coffee pots andI have no clue what is growing in the water hoses to my fridge & ice maker the thought of it drives me crazy!!!!
Linda - it's none of my business really but just curious, do you live in Florida?
Linda sounds like Pluris Water
in East Orlando Wedgefield FL 😠😡
@@thereserivera7691 Right?? Geez I'm in Conway and it ain't much better. Not to that degree like Wedgefield but still city water. Ugh
@@christyhancock7387 not city Water-- private company -- disgusting & soooooooo expensive & up front 3/4 acre lots have no choice-- son & family rented in front when moved here from Jax -- love the rural no crime area & built house in back with no less than an acre, septic tank, well & reverse osmosis water system. No city water lines out to this huge rural subdivision-- City water, if have it, is great
@@christyhancock7387 I live in South Carolina
Thanks
just like vinegar it has a low pH between 6 to 4, acidic, would it cause the same issues as the vinegar?
Thanks! I use it on my!
.... Your what?
@@ailynevensen old toothbrush to clean around the sink and toilet, then throw them away
Good to know 😊
THANK YOU
So how would you go about cleaning the line to your fridge and ice maker?
White spray paint in light coats
Vinegar. Not a cleaning one, but a cooking one. Vinegar works well on hard water. Once every five years or so, you have to undo the water connection and fill the hose with vinegar. A plastic bag and gravity works. Cycle the ice maker to run the vinegar through. I find that this quiets noisy icemakers. Mine started sounding like a parrot. A valve gets hard water buildup.
thank you.
Going to try that
Thank you for nice video. I will try. I didn't no hydrogen peroxide is also good on blood in clothes. Thank you.
This is why my toothbrush is locked in my dop kit with a little padlock
😂
Thank you !! ❤ 😘 👍
You're welcome 😊
Do you have to use a brush? I wonder if it would work somewhat without even scrubbing it.....I really dont want to scrub. 🙂
Did you notice the warning label on the top right corner of the tank stating to not use the drop in cleaners due to the chlorine content?
Did the HP clean it or did the toothbrush clean it.
I used this on my cream colored carpet to take out blood. I pour some on straight. As soon as I poured it on the blood dissapeared.
Do you have this problem often?
Nope just the one and only time. A friend was visiting and had a bad bloody nose...why what were u thinking? LOL
@@deloisefrey2798 I'll have to remember that trick the next time one of my "friends" comes over and talks too much trash - I mean, develops a bad bloody nose. 🤣
@@RevTox yup that works too...lol
Before and after picture is clean 1/2 side quick easy post picture of next project hope it helps 🌹❤️💯 1/2 side is before other 1/2 is the clean side 🌹
I am going to try this right now! T u!
Linda Cares-- to you happen to live in FL with the Pluris water?
Something better, use The Works tablet or pool chlorine tablet (the small ones, used a small floater) make sure it does not interfere with the mechanism, no brushing needed. I've been using it for decades with no problems and last longer than peroxide. Another one is Tide laundry pod/ 1/4 cup of liquid Tide original (no perfume, once every three/four months) place in the tank till dissolve, stir water in tank, then wait an hour before flashing.
Don't we flash the toilet everytime we use it?
@@JohnSmith-gq9gn let the chemicals do it's job first, the tablet will just set at the bottom of the tank and if you use a floater it's large enough that it will stay in your tank. or, I sometimes use the garlic mesh bag or something similar.
@@Ret_Army_Combat_Vet LOL, thanks. I was making a joke because your auto spell wrote flash the toilet, but I appreciate your reply and info.
@@JohnSmith-gq9gn Thanks,🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@JohnSmith-gq9gn 🤣My mom would be so mad if I didn't flash
Best ever is rust out.i will try this too
Its nice and clean, for me to leave an upper decker in.
I picked up that exact brand just randomly the other day before seeing this video.
Classic cake works great also
Coke i hate spell check
Many guys want something to break down their annoying girlfriend's flapper, so this is good advice!
Andrea what about the brown stain behind the plunger tower under the black stamp Still showing
Excellent
It works on protein stains.
I had to use hydrogen peroxide to clean my hot water heater tank and it worked great
Wonder if a bottle of CLR would work??
is this safe for septic tanks? need to know before use . . if not, best item/s to use for a septic system
No.
Peroxide at 3% will not be a problem . . . the small amount you're actually using will quickly be consumed by the organic crud in the septic system.
@@jpdemer5 thanks!
Hi. Thanks
What strength percentage do you use? Some are weak, around 30% or stronger, around 80%.
Thank you.
The stronger the better 👍
Very interesting video
H2O2 is also good on your skin - I rub it on from a cotton swab.
I'll get right to that; like next Tuesday or Friday or maybe even Wednesday.
😂😂😂😂
Just wondering if this ruins all the rubber seals? Anyone have problems after awhile? Pls comment below.
I have never had an issue….
Does this work well on rust and lime from well water?
Yes 🙌
Love Hydrogen Peroxide, Andrea !!! Joan Bates ❤ ❤ ❤
I enjoy your how to tip videos on youtube! Plus you are a smokeshow! :) Thank you!
@@Mandy-nt2cs an extra attractive female
I did this and my girl friend asked me if I did something to her tooth brush!
I use HP as a mouth rinse before brushing my teeth.
Try a little bit of baking soda then rinse
Just put White King in the System it flushed clean as a Whistle.
What is white king?
It’s very expensive.
Going to try this on the stained bowl in the basement bath. Does anyone know if peroxide loses efficacy? I have a really old bottle of it.
I imagine if it's been sealed and in a cool place the whole time you should be fine. If not, a bottle of peroxide costs you no more than $1.50 or so at Walmart.
Someone told me that even if the bottle of H2O2 has not been opened, it still deteriorates after a year or so.
Pour some onto a slice of raw potato. If it fizzes, it's good. If it doesn't, it's gone bad. ("Bad" is relative: the peroxide literally turns into water.)
How long do I let it sit inside a stained bowl before going in with a brush?
I would say maybe 30 mins..? That’s just a guess for the 1st cleaning. Then depending on how bad the stain is, I’d try to leave it as long as I could, using less sitting time for the daily/weekly cleanings.
@@Pez2176 like over night
@@teresaf991 ya that's what I'm thinking about he'll can't hurt I don't think and if any does go in to the tank or drain we'll that was going to happen anyway thanks for the advice absolutely great little trick my friend cheers to your help!!!

He has made me pretty mad before, but not that bad. At least not yet! j/k 😂😂
Make sure to put that toothbrush back in the toothbrush holder. 😉👍

Yeah I always wonder about the safety risks of that, especially an unmarked toothbrush.
Spray that bowl top-off hose too. Clorox kitchen and bath spray is also a great solution for this.
Thanks so much for sharing, very useful.
Glad it was helpful!
Any tips to clean the INTERIOR of the porcelain lid? I look inside that tiny hole and see some crud in there. Driving me batty.
