Cleaning the toilet bowl is something nobody enjoys and, when you do get around to it, you usually have to use a harsh cleaning compound. Many of these compounds are health hazards; both their fumes and direct contact with your skin can be a serious irritant. There is an easy way to clean your toilet with something you probably already have in the house. The following article will tell you how.

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

    Cleaning the toilet bowl safely

  1. Step 1

    Pour 1/2 box of baking soda into the toilet bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Let the baking soda stand overnight in the bowl. Try to do this the last thing before bed so you don't accidentally flush the toilet before the baking soda has a chance to work.

  3. Step 3

    Flush the toilet several times in the morning. The baking soda should eat away the crud.

  4. Step 4

    Run a brush around the bowl to fully remove any loosened grime.

Tips & Warnings
  • Use the baking soda at night, right before bed
