This trick only requires three main ingredients, namely baking soda, dish soap, and citric acid. Of the three ingredients, baking soda is the main key because it has abrasive properties that can lift stubborn stains.

Citric acid works as a natural cleaner that effectively removes dirt and grime without damaging the floor surface. Meanwhile, dish soap helps dissolve oil or soap residue that sticks to the floor.

To keep the bathroom clean and free of scale, do regular cleaning at least once a week. Use natural or homemade cleaning fluids to prevent stains from building up. Make sure the bathroom is well ventilated so that the air in it is not too humid and the risk of mold growth can be minimized.
