**Putting Baking Soda in the Trash Can and 9 Other Tips to Keep Your Bathroom Sparkling**
A clean and fresh-smelling bathroom can completely transform your home. However, maintaining that fresh vibe can be a challenge with the constant humidity, soap scum, and everyday messes. Luckily, with a few smart cleaning habits, your bathroom can stay sparkling clean and odor-free with minimal effort.
In this article, we’ll explore one of the simplest and most effective tips—**putting baking soda in the trash can**—and nine other practical tips to help you maintain a bathroom that’s as fresh as it is clean!
### 1. **Put Baking Soda in the Trash Can**
A bathroom trash can is often one of the trickiest places to keep fresh. With its mix of used tissues, cotton swabs, and sometimes unpleasant-smelling waste, it’s a hotspot for odors. The secret? **Baking soda**.
Baking soda is a natural deodorizer that absorbs unpleasant odors, so simply place a small box or open container of baking soda at the bottom of your bathroom trash can. For added freshness, you can even sprinkle some directly onto the trash as you go, especially if you’re disposing of particularly smelly items like used diapers or cleaning wipes. This simple step keeps your bathroom trash can smelling fresh for much longer.
### 2. **Wipe Down Surfaces Daily**
It doesn’t take long for dust, soap scum, and water spots to accumulate on bathroom surfaces. To keep your bathroom sparkling, wipe down countertops, sinks, and faucets every day using a damp microfiber cloth. Microfiber cloths trap dust and grime, preventing them from spreading to other surfaces, and they can be used with just water—no harsh chemicals needed.
