Two things I use to clean my bathroom sink and toilet: a spray bottle of peroxide and a spray bottle of rubbing alcohol. I put one drop of sawn dish liquid in the alcohol and a few drops of essential oils. Alcohol kills everything and leaves it so clean it actually squeaks. Peroxide is great for spraying around the sink faucet as it gets into the nooks and crannies and sizzles up, killing any little nasties hiding in the crevices. Both are very cheap and when the alcohol smell dissipates, the bathroom is deodorized. Tub is a paste made of dish liquid and baking soda or plain old Soft Scrub with bleach. I no longer buy fancy cleaners and everything stays nice for longer.
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
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.
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.
@@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! 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
I had some old "outdated" hydrogen peroxide under the bathroom sink.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.
@@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! 🤗
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!
@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 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
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, that ring around my toilet bowl was so bad when I moved in, I had to use a scraper to get those lime and calcium deposits out, now I KNOW what to do, THANKS! 👍
MURIATIC ACID FROM MOST HARDWARE STORES WORKS FANTASTIC ON REALLY HARD OLD STAINS OF ANY KIND IN YOUR TOILET THE FIRST TIME!! IT'S VERY STRONG I USED IT ONCE ONE GALLON FOR 2 TOILETS, NOW MY TOILETS FLUSH LIKE NEW. THEN USE THE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE WEEKS LATER FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE.
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!
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.
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!!!!
@@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
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.
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 ....
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.
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.
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.
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.
It's a good idea to turn the shut off valve every so often, so it does not freeze up. You may need to shut it off every so often. Do the ones under the sink too.
IT WILL GET DULUITED IN YOUR SEPTIC TANK.. I USED A GALLON OF MURIATIC ACID FOR 2 TOILETS THE FIRST TIME AND ONLY THE 1 ST TIME AS I HAD 50 YEARS OF HARD WATER BUILDUP IT MADE MY TOILETS FLUSH AND LOOK LIKE NEW. THEN I USE THIS OR SOMETHING ELSE FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE!!
I also discovered denture cleaning tablets to put in the toilet bowl to clean up the grime. Put in and let them sit for 24 hours if possible and then scrub with your toilet bowl brush.
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.
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!
Flush n Sparkle is the best to keep bowl clean. It puts the chlorine in the bowl only. So it does not deteriorate anything in the tank. Keeps my bowl clean... you can buy 1 inch chlorine tablets to replace them, rather than a new cartridge.
It was recommended to me that if you are going to use cleaning disks in the tank, wrap them in cheese cloth to avoid little particles settling on the floor of the tank or plugging internal channels.
@@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. 🤣
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.
Moments before watching this video, I watched your video on cleaning the toilet tank using Citric Acid (which you posted one year before this video). Would you please tell us which worked better?
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.
@@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.
Sodium peroxide has so many uses, from sanitation to personnel use. A q-tip soaked with sodium peroxide will remove ear wax and is good for cleaning fresh shallow wounds. Per meaning MANY, oxides referring to OXYGEN combined with sodium, a really useful product.
It works wonderfully! No one, I mean no one, wants to know how gross the toilet tank of the house we just bought was😳 I just flushed and squirted it in several times and now the water is clear‼️‼️
How do you clean the inside of the toilet bowl? I have rust stains from well water on the sides of the toilet bowl and rim. How do I clean this with hydrogen peroxide?
I saw she put a sprayer straight on the bottle and said she sprayed it under the rim to get to the holes. You could probably dump it in the bowl as welln but it will come down fro. the tank when you flush.
Peroxide doesn't work for me with our well for deep cleaning the works is the only thing that actually works for our well water cleaning..... but ventilate and don't clean with windex or anything at the same time. I have to use the toilet bowl works for my shower surrounds as well. For tougher stains a magic eraser as well and also wear gloves when using the works.
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.
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.)

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.)
@@jpdemer5 Ha! My family used h.p. for ear aches. We took the fizzing to mean it was working.
