Looking for an easy, budget-friendly way to deep-clean your toilet without scrubbing for hours? Try this old-school cleaning hack: pouring washing powder (laundry detergent) into your toilet bowl. You’ll be amazed at what happens next!
✅ What Happens When You Add Washing Powder to the Toilet
🧼 Breaks Down Stains & Grime: The surfactants in washing powder loosen stubborn stains, mineral deposits, and grime stuck to the toilet bowl.
🦠 Fights Bacteria & Odors: Many laundry powders contain antibacterial agents that help kill germs and leave your toilet smelling fresh.
✨ Whitens & Brightens: Laundry detergents with brighteners can restore a dingy or yellowed toilet bowl to a cleaner, whiter appearance.
🌸 Fresh Fragrance: Washing powder often has long-lasting fragrances that keep your bathroom smelling fresh for hours or even days.
🥄 How to Use Washing Powder in Your Toilet
1️⃣ Pour 2-3 tablespoons of washing powder directly into the toilet bowl.
2️⃣ Add 1-2 cups of hot water (but not boiling, to avoid damaging the porcelain) to activate the detergent and help dissolve stubborn residue.
3️⃣ Let it sit for at least 30 minutes — or overnight for tough stains — allowing the powder to break down grime.
