DIY Toilet Bowl Cleaner
After much experimenting, I’m excited to finally share a DIY Toilet Bowl Cleaner that fights odors and leaves even the dirtiest (cough cough) toilet bowls sparkling clean.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 32 oz
Ingredients
- 1 cup water distilled or boiled water for long-term use
- 1/2 cup baking soda
- 1/2 cup castile soap
- 15-30 drops lavender essential oil or grapefruit, tea tree, lemon, or orange.
- hydrogen peroxide see "Important Notes" section below
Instructions
-
Using a small funnel, add the liquid ingredients: water and castile soap to a squirt container or bottle. Then, add the baking soda. Shake to combine the ingredients, except the hydrogen peroxide.
-
Place the top on the bottle (make sure the squirt top is closed!). Shake the bottle vigorously until the ingredients are combined.
Recipe Notes
To Use: Squirt the interior sides of the toilet bowl with cleaner. Allow the cleaner to rest for 5-15 minutes, then scrub the toilet bowl with a cleaner brush. Store the cleaner at room temperature and vigorously shake before using. Separation of the ingredients is normal.
