Many people forget that shower curtains need to be cleaned periodically.

If you don’t remove soap scum in time, mold may appear, which will only cause health problems.

The cleaning method depends on the material.

It is best to wash such things by hand. If serious stains appear, it is better to remove them using natural products.

For example, rust stains and yellow plaque should be removed using a vinegar solution. Lemon juice can also be used.

Mold stains can be removed with baking soda and ammonia.

Mix a teaspoon of soda with 3 drops of ammonia. Apply the resulting paste to the stains for 15 minutes, then wipe with a sponge. Finally, rinse the curtain under clean water and let it dry naturally.

In addition, you should always try to keep the curtains clean.

After each shower, it is enough to rinse them with clean water, and you also need to make sure that the curtains have time to dry. However, constant high humidity and poor ventilation are the main cause of mold.
