Cleaning the bathroom is as important as it is boring, but luckily there is a routine that allows us to do it in just 5 minutes without giving up cleaning.
It is a routine that, if practiced frequently, allows us to always have a very clean and sparkling bathroom.
1. Prepare what you will need
To be more effective and faster at cleaning the bathroom, get everything you need before you start. Sponges, clean cloths, products for cleaning the toilet and other surfaces.
Having everything you need on hand will make it much easier and faster to do this.
2. First stop: the bathroom
Pour some toilet bowl cleaner and clean with the brush. Let it sit while you clean the rest of the toilet.
Clean all surfaces with a cloth: from the lid to the base. Don’t forget about the toilet – a lot of bacteria settles in it and it is often bypassed.
3. Bath or shower
Soap residue, hair, dead skin… All of them settle on the surfaces of the bathtub and shower, favoring the development of bacteria and fungi.
Disinfect the surfaces of the shower or bathtub with a cleaning product, rub with a sponge before rinsing with plenty of water. Wipe the shower head with a cloth to clean it and prevent limescale buildup.
4. Sink and bidet
Following the same dynamic, also clean the sink and bidet, being careful to use two sponges and two different cloths.
Wipe first with the cleaning product, then with a clean cloth to ensure all residue is removed and surfaces even cleaner.
5. Clean the mirrors
Splashes of water, toothpaste or soap can make mirrors very dirty, especially if they are near the sink.
To clean it in 5 minutes, use a solution based on white vinegar: it is the best product to remove stains and prevent the appearance of halos.
6. Rinse everything
Use a clean, damp cloth to give all surfaces a final wipe.
This is essential to ensure that all traces of dirt or cleaning product have been removed.
7. Clean the floor
Pick up the dust first, then dry it with a water-based solution and a little white vinegar.
8. Perfume the bathroom
The final and definitive touch to have an even cleaner feeling is to deodorize the bathroom.
Cut some lemon slices, put them in a glass jar and add an aromatic plant to taste and a few cinnamon sticks. Place the bottle in a corner of the bathroom and enjoy the wonderful aroma.
