A clean, fresh-smelling toilet is essential for a hygienic bathroom, but merely flushing often leaves behind bacteria and viruses. These germs cling to airborne water particles and settle back into the bowl. The solution? Homemade toilet cleaning bombs that work in just 5 minutes!
Ingredients for Homemade Toilet Bombs:
- 1 cup of baking soda
- ¼ cup of citric acid
- 1 tablespoon of liquid detergent
- 10 drops of lemon essential oil
- 15 drops of peppermint essential oil
How to Make Them:
- Mix baking soda, citric acid, and liquid detergent in a container.
- Add the essential oils last to prevent premature reaction with the citric acid.
- If the mixture is too dry, add a few drops of water to achieve a moldable consistency.
- Stir thoroughly and press the mixture into molds.
- Let the bombs dry completely in a dark, dry place.
Using Your Toilet Bombs:
- For a comprehensive clean, place one bomb in the toilet tank and another in the bowl.
- Allow them to sit for 20 minutes, then flush.
These homemade bombs not only deeply clean the toilet but also impart a refreshing lemon and peppermint scent. It’s a quick, effective, and natural way to maintain a sparkling, odor-free toilet.”
