I'm looking for ways to cut back on the chemicals in my home, and it turns out you can replace most of those fancy, expensive cleaners with some basic household products that your great grandma would have had on hand. The one product that had me stumped, though, was toilet bowl cleaner. What could replace that bleaching gel?
Vinegar + Baking Soda
The ladies on one of my cleaning forums suggested pouring about a cup of vinegar in the bowl, then sprinkling baking soda around the sides and a little in the water. Scrub as usual with a toilet brush, and voila - clean bowl! I tried it and it works like a dream. No fancy bleach or smelly chemicals needed.
I like that it's super inexpensive, natural (and therefore not harmful to the sewer system or water supply), and uses things that I can now keep in bulk and use for multiple purposes.
