How to Use Vinegar in Your Bathroom

Keep vinegar in a decorative container to store in the bathroom.

Every bathroom should have a bottle of white vinegar on hand. Vinegar applies to many cleaning tasks throughout the household, but in the bathroom, especially, you can put it to use on a daily basis.

Things You'll Need

• Microfiber towel
• Spray bottle
• Plastic cup
• Baking soda

Instructions

1. Vinegar is excellent for cleaning glass. That fogged mirror that dries with spots on it can be made sparkling clean with just one squirt of vinegar from a spray bottle and a swipe with a microfiber towel. This includes shower doors and bathtubs that have soap scum built up on them as well. Vinegar is a wonderful cleaning product for nearly all bathroom surfaces.

2. Fixtures will shine and look like new when wiped down with vinegar. Everything from metal towel racks to faucets and handles can use a touch of vinegar.

3. Sunburn, dry skin, dry scalp and even insect bites can be helped by adding a cup of vinegar to your bath or using it as a rinse in the shower.

4. Clogged or smelly drains benefit from a mixture of hot water, vinegar and baking soda. When equal amounts of baking soda and vinegar mix they bubble and fizz to clean your drains very well. Let them work for several minutes, then rinse with very hot to boiling water.

5. Many people don't think of vinegar as an air freshener, due to it's strong scent, but placing a cup of vinegar in the bathroom will neutralize odors and leave the room smelling fresh. The strong vinegar smell doesn't linger like other smells will.
