Brilio.net - The inside of the toilet is often an area that is neglected in the routine of cleaning the bathroom. In fact, this is where the crust and dirt most often accumulate due to residual water, minerals, and waste that settles. If not cleaned regularly, this crust will be difficult to remove and can even become a breeding ground for bacteria. This condition not only makes the toilet look dull, but also triggers an unpleasant odor that interferes with the comfort of the bathroom.
The crust on the inside of the toilet is usually formed from the calcium and magnesium content in the water, especially if the water used is hard water. This sediment often accumulates in areas that are not directly visible, such as under the toilet rim or the bottom of the drain. In addition to causing odor, this crust can also cause the toilet to function less than optimally because the water flow is blocked.
However, this problem can actually be solved with the right cleaning steps. By using effective cleaning agents, such as special liquids to remove scale or natural ingredients such as citric acid, scale can be removed easily. But to be more effective, you can use a trick from Instagram user @bieshouse in one of the uploaded videos.

After pouring the water, immediately stir until all the ingredients are mixed evenly. It is better to stir using hands that have been coated with protection such as gloves. After that, press until it clumps and the size is round.

Now, if it has clumped and is round, immediately insert it into the toilet hole. Shortly after being inserted, the cleaning clump will cause a foam reaction. At this stage, let it sit for a while so that the cleaning agent can soak into the crust. Then scrub it with a toilet brush.

This scrubbing process tends to be easier and effortless because the cleaning agent has softened the crust. Then, if the crust has faded, rinse it immediately with running water. In addition to being cleaner, the toilet is also free from unpleasant odors. That way, you don't need to worry about the bathroom smelling.
