Only if you throw it into the toilet will it be spotless and very fragrant: zero stains.

Making your own cleaning agents for a fresh-smelling toilet can be a great way to save money and reduce your environmental impact.

Commercial products are often expensive and frequent purchases can represent a significant cost for families.

Homemade scented toilet bowl cleaners

Industrial cleaning products often  contain harsh ingredients  that can damage surfaces and the surrounding environment. In addition, commercial products are often expensive and frequent purchases can add significant costs to households.

Luckily, making your own  toilet bowl cleaners is fairly simple  and only requires a few common ingredients. For example, one effective natural remedy is to use citric acid, baking soda, and lemon essential oil. Not only will these ingredients make   your toilet bowl smell great  , but they will also do so without the use of harsh chemicals.

For example, to make your own toilet bowl cleaner, you can start by mixing 1 cup baking soda with 1/4 cup citric acid in a bowl. Then add 20 drops of lemon essential oil and mix well. Once the mixture is transferred to a jar with a lid,  store it in a cool, dry place  until use.

To use your own toilet bowl cleaner, simply add 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture to the toilet bowl and  let it sit for at least 10 minutes.  Then, scrub the toilet bowl with the brush and rinse it thoroughly.

In addition to this natural remedy, there are other homemade toilet bowl cleaning options that can be just as effective. For example, you can use a mixture of vinegar and baking soda. These ingredients react together to create an effervescent foam that  helps remove dirt and limescale from the toilet bowl.

For this concoction, simply pour 1 cup of baking soda into the toilet bowl and add about 1 cup of white vinegar. Leave for about 10-15 minutes and then scrub with a toilet brush before rinsing.

Impeccable and fragrant water

For all of these reasons, making your own toilet bowl cleaners can be a great way to save money and protect the environment. With a few common ingredients and simple preparation, you can create effective natural remedies to  keep your  toilet bowl smelling fresh and sanitized  .

Plus, these homemade cleaners  are much safer than industrial products  that often contain harsh chemicals that can pose a risk to your health and the environment.

A widely used product is “  toilet tablets”  that are placed in the bowl and with each flush release agents that clean the toilet bowl.

We can also prepare these ourselves, using the soap pieces we have at home and recycling many leftovers. All we have to do is  grate the soap.

After grating it, pour it into a saucepan to melt it and add two glasses of water and 2 glasses of aromatic oil and  two tablespoons of baking soda.

Once the ingredients have melted, they are poured into a bowl to let them cool. Finally, we will cut portions of this natural solution with a knife.

Finally, you can put some of this soap  in the toilet, right where the holes are where the water comes out, which will release some of it every time you flush the toilet, cleaning and sanitizing the toilet.
