Most household cleaning products (especially those we use to clean the bathroom) are loaded with toxic chemicals and other harmful ingredients.

Instead of risking exposure to these chemicals, it’s a great idea to look into opting for natural cleaning solutions!

It’s really no secret that white vinegar works incredibly well as a natural cleaning agent. But, apple cider vinegar pretty much does the same thing. It just smells way better.

To disinfect and remove soap scrum from your tub, use apple cider vinegar to scrub off all the icky buildup!

2. Remove Mold with Borax and Vinegar

Another great natural cleaning agent?

If you’ve got a mold problem in your bathroom, just use borax to clean it. You can create your own natural cleaning solution by mixing borax with water.

The ratio to use: one cup borax to one gallon of water. For a stronger cleaning solution, you can also add a cup of vinegar into the mixture!

3. DIY Spray for Streak-free Mirrors

Cleaning the toilet is no fun. But the good news is that you really don’t need toxic cleaning products to achieve the results!

For a natural way to clean your toilet, just grab some vinegar and baking soda to clean the hard water stains off your toilet.

5. Best Way to Clean Your Showerhead

Chances are that you’re not cleaning your bathroom showerheads as often as you should.

If you really think about it, this really isn’t the place for you to cut corners during your cleaning session. Your showerheads come into direct contact with the water that lands on you!

It’s actually pretty simple to disinfect and clean your showerheads. All you have to do is create a solution out of hot water and white vinegar.

Then, remove the showerhead and let it sit in this mixture for a good 30 minutes. To finish things off, use an old toothbrush to give it a scrub, removing the remaining dirt and residue.

6. Steam Your Bathroom

Bet you never thought of this trick!

The best way to clean your bathroom tiles is to give them steam. I mean, it does make a lot of sense considering the fact that steam works wonders for opening up our pores.

So the same logic would apply here. Use a steam cleaner to heat up the tiles and to loosen up the dirt and other gunk that gets trapped!

7. Scrub Your Tub with an Extendable Brush

This cleaning hack is a total game-changer.

Forget about getting down on your knees to scrub your tub because there’s a much simpler (and less strenuous) way to go about this!

Just use a tile scrubber that comes with an extendable handle to make your life way easier. I highly recommend getting yourself a tile scrubber like the one you can find here.

I absolutely love using it for all the intense scrubbing action that goes on in the bathroom!

8. Throw Shower Curtains into the Washing Machine

Anyone else guilty of always tossing out their shower curtains once they see a bit of mildew?

Instead of constantly replacing your shower curtains, there’s an easier and more budget-friendly way to go about this.

Just throw them into the washing machine (on a gentle setting) with a couple of towels, detergent, and 1/2 cup of baking soda. When it comes time for the rinse cycle, add 1/2 cup of vinegar!

9. Use a Vacuum to Clean Your Tub

Here’s the ultimate trick to get your tub to sparkle! Before you begin your intense cleaning session and all that scrubbing action, use a vacuum to pick up all the hair and dust particles that can get in the way!

10. Get Your Hands on Mr. Clean’s Magic Eraser ASAP

If you don’t already own the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser… well, you’re seriously missing out. It’s the real MVP when it comes to getting out stains from ANY surface.

Streaky mirrors? Shower grout? Stubborn stains in your tub? Wall stains that magically appeared out of nowhere?

11. Don’t Forget Your Exhaust Fans

Another part of the bathroom that we can show a bit more love to? The exhaust fan!

For optimal performance, it’s imperative that you’re giving the cover a good clean every now and then to remove all the dust and debris that gets trapped in there.

The first thing you should do is use your vacuum cleaner to get rid of ALL the dust. Let me warn you, there’s going to be a lot.

Next, remove the cover and use an old toothbrush to give it a good scrub under warm water.

12. DIY Extra Strength Cleaning Solution for the Tub

Who else is already exhausted at the thought of scrubbing their tub?

Forget about the intense scrubbing session, because there’s a much easier way to get the job done! All you need to do is make your own DIY extra strength cleaning solution.

The best part is that you can ditch the toxic cleaning supplies for good! This magical solution works wonders for getting rid of all the stubborn stains from your tub.

13. Use Mouthwash to Clean the Toilet

You already have one of the best toilet bowl cleaners sitting around your house, and you don’t even know it.

Ditch the toxic cleaning supplies for good by using mouthwash to clean your toilet!

14. Unscrew the Toilet Lid

When it comes to cleaning the bathroom, getting everything to sparkle doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s clean!

To clean your toilet the right way, you need to make sure that you’re actually getting rid of all the bacteria and germs that tend to accumulate in those hard-to-reach places.

The best way to give your toilet a proper clean is to unscrew the toilet lid first!

15. Wash Toothbrush Holders in a Dishwasher

Another part of the bathroom that we really ought to pay more attention to? Our toothbrush holders.

If you’re not already washing them regularly… well, you really should. Your toothbrush can be an easy breeding ground for bacteria.

It means that your toothbrush holder also isn’t safe from all the germs. To give your toothbrush holder a good clean and to sterilize them properly, just toss them into the dishwasher. But of course, make sure they’re dishwasher-safe first!
