1. How to clean a shower head

‘Pour some white vinegar into a plastic bag and secure with a hair tie. Leave the bag overnight, and remove the morning after before showering’ is the experts’ best advice.

2. How to clean a shower

The bathroom specialists say, ‘Bring vinegar to a boil then use the warm vinegar to wipe down the shower door and walls. Keep them damp by wiping down every 5 to 8 minutes for 30 minutes. Next, dampen a microfiber cloth in vinegar, a sprinkle of baking soda, and scrub.’

3. How to clean a toilet

‘Pour a cup of vinegar in the bowl and let it sit overnight. The next morning, sprinkle with baking soda, scrub then flush.’

4. How to clean shower glass

‘Fill a spray bottle with equal parts white vinegar and water, and spray your shower door. Use a squeegee for a streak-free shine’ the bathroom experts advise.

5. How to unblock a shower drain

‘Pour a pot of boiling water down the drain. Next, pour 125g of baking soda down the drain, followed with a one-part water, one-part white vinegar solution. Wait five to ten minutes before boiling water down the drain again.’

6. How to clean a bathtub

‘Mix ½ cup of white (distilled) vinegar with a litre of warm water’ they explain. ‘Use the solution on a scratch-resistant cloth, and scrub. Allow to air dry afterwards.’

8. How to clean shower curtains

‘Throw your curtain into the washing machine. Add in your normal detergent, but also 125g of baking soda. Wash in hot water at the highest level. At the rinse cycle, add 125g of distilled white vinegar. If it’s a fabric curtain, let it run through the spin cycle, but if its plastic, then remove it beforehand and leave it to hang in the bathroom.’

9. How to clean bathroom grout

‘This one is super simply. Spray non-distilled white vinegar straight onto the dirty grout, and leave for 15 minutes. Next, use an old toothbrush to scrub.’

10. How to remove toilet stains

‘Soak some paper towels with white vinegar, then tuck the towels up under the rim of the bowl. Leave it for a few hours, remove the paper towels and then scrub clean, with white vinegar in a plastic bottle.’
