Brilio.net - The toilet is one part of the bathroom that needs to be cleaned regularly so that it does not become a source of germs and disease. Some people usually clean the toilet bowl by brushing it with a mixture of water and detergent. Not a few also use special cleaning fluids for toilets .
However, if it is not cleaned regularly, the toilet will become stained and filled with dirt. Over time, the stuck dirt will harden and form stubborn crusty stains . If this is the case, cleaning the toilet using the two methods above will be less effective. Blackened crust stains, especially on the toilet footing, will be difficult to remove.
The way to overcome this is that some people add baking soda as a cleaning agent. This is because baking soda contains salt which is abrasive so it is effective in removing stains on the surface of objects. However, if you don't have a stock of baking soda at home, you can try another method, you know.
One netizen via the YouTube channel MAK IDA BUL-BUL shared a trick to get rid of black crust in the toilet without baking soda. In one of his uploads, he showed the condition of the toilet in his house which was filled with black crust.

The four ingredients are stirred until evenly mixed. Apart from cleaning materials, the YouTube user also prepared sandpaper, a brush, dishwashing wire, and a kepi or iron knife as tools to help clean the toilet.
"So far, Mak Ida only cleans with detergent. She doesn't use this cleaning agent," he said, as reported by BrilioFood on Tuesday (20/2).

Before applying cleaning fluid to the toilet, he seemed to pour hot water into the area around the toilet. Only after that did he apply cleaning fluid to the entire surface of the toilet and let it sit for about 15 minutes for the cleaning fluid to absorb. The YouTube user initially brushed the toilet with the help of sandpaper, dishwashing wire and a brush. However, it turns out that the stubborn black crust is still difficult to clean.

"The crust in the toilet is starting to lift. You have to be patient because for a long time you have only cleaned it with a brush. Mom Ida never deep cleans the bathroom," he continued.
