A number of people usually clean the toilet with a special toilet cleaning fluid . There are also those who brush it with a mixture of water and detergent. However, if the crust stuck to the toilet has hardened, the toilet will be difficult to clean even if it has been cleaned using the two methods above.

Finally, many choose to add other ingredients to clean the toilet. One of them is adding baking soda. This kitchen ingredient is believed to be able to remove stubborn crust stains on the surface of objects.
