Putting Detergent on the Toilet Brush: The Favorite Trick of Experienced Housewives
Cleaning the bathroom can often feel like a daunting chore — especially when it comes to tackling stubborn toilet stains. But what if there was a simple trick that experienced housewives have been using for years to make this task quicker, easier, and more effective? The secret? Putting detergent directly on the toilet brush before scrubbing.
Why This Trick Works
Most people simply flush, spray some cleaner, and scrub the toilet bowl — but adding detergent directly to the toilet brush changes the game. Here’s why:
- More Effective Cleaning: When detergent is applied right onto the brush, it creates a concentrated lather where you need it most, helping to break down grime and stains faster.
- Less Waste: Spraying or pouring cleaner into the toilet bowl can cause a lot of product to get flushed away quickly. The brush method uses less detergent while still maximizing cleaning power.
- Better Control: You can target specific stubborn areas (like under the rim or tough stains) more precisely by applying detergent with the brush.
How to Use This Simple Trick
- Choose a Good Detergent: Use a bathroom cleaner, bleach-based detergent, or a strong liquid dish soap that’s tough on grime but safe for your plumbing.
- Apply to the Brush: Before scrubbing, pour a small amount of detergent directly onto the toilet brush bristles.
- Scrub Thoroughly: Focus on problem areas—under the rim, around the water line, and in the bowl. The detergent-laden brush will foam up and dissolve stains more quickly.
- Flush and Rinse: After scrubbing, flush the toilet to rinse away loosened dirt and residual cleaner.
- Clean the Brush: Rinse the brush in clean water or spray it with disinfectant and store it dry to keep it fresh and germ-free.
Extra Tips From the Pros
- For stubborn stains, let the detergent sit on the brush for a minute before scrubbing.
