The Bottle Method: A Budget-Friendly Technique for Shiny Toilets (Page 2 ) | March 29, 2025

Before delving into the method, start with a preliminary step:

before bedtime, pour a handful of baking soda followed by a small amount of white vinegar into the toilet. This creates a foaming effect that naturally removes dirt from the bowl’s walls. Leave it for 15 minutes or overnight, then gently scrub with a toilet brush to eliminate debris and odors.

Now, let’s explore the bottle method. This technique involves placing a small bottle in the toilet cistern, ensuring the bowl is cleaned with each flush. It’s simple and effective:

1. Get a half-quart plastic bottle.
2. Pour liquid soap into the bottle.
3. Add 1 cup of white vinegar and close the bottle.
4. Shake to mix the soap and vinegar.
5. Pierce the top of the plastic cap.
6. Open the tank cap, insert the bottle without blocking the flushing mechanism.

The cleansing mixture will act on the bowl’s walls with every flush, keeping your toilet disinfected and lightly scented. Moreover, this method reduces the amount of water in the tank, leading to lower water consumption. A practical trick that benefits both cleanliness and the environment!
