Many housewives throw a tea bag into the toilet before leaving: you'll be surprised why they do this
If a small limescale deposit appears on the walls of the toilet, there is no need to despair and run for household chemicals to clean the dirt.
Experienced housewives know that simple products that are available in any home help to get rid of such stains. However, sometimes the options can surprise you.
The thing is that in such cases tea bags are very helpful.
There is no need to worry that this cleaning method will damage the plumbing. It is completely safe.
How does this work
You need to put several wet bags on the place that needs cleaning. Most often, this is the space under the toilet rim.
The bags should be left for half an hour. Then they should be taken out and thrown away. Such items should not be flushed down the toilet, otherwise they can clog the sewer.
Next, you need to clean the toilet with a hard brush. Then all that's left is to flush the water so that the plumbing is clean again.
The tea cleaning option is also suitable for other plumbing fixtures where water stagnates. For example, you can clean a sink this way.
It is also advisable to wipe the tap with a wet tea bag, and then rinse with clean water and wipe dry.
