Not every housewife pays due attention to this component of plumbing, but due to the constant presence of water, and not always of high quality, plaque and even mucus accumulate there.

These formations do not help keep the toilet clean and are not easy to clean.

We will tell you how to solve this issue cheaply and effectively.

To clean the inner walls of the tank from plaque, rust and slime, you can make your own cleaning agent.

To prepare you will need:

  • 130 grams of soda;
  • 30 grams of citric acid;
  • 1 tsp dishwashing liquid;
  • essential oil.

How to cook

All components should be mixed in one common container. As for the essential oil, it will act as a freshener. It is added at your own discretion.

After mixing the dry ingredients with liquid detergent, distribute the mixture into molds (for example, for freezing ice) and put them in the freezer.

After 12 hours, the homemade tablets can be used as intended.

Simply lift the lid of the tank and, without draining the water, place the tablet inside.

Then the ingredients will begin to act on their own.

It is better to leave the tablet for a few hours, for example, by throwing it in before leaving for work. In the evening, all that remains is to drain the dirty water.
