Nobody likes to clean the house. However, it should be done quite regularly, and this is especially important in the bathroom. It is there - especially in the toilet - that bacteria like to reside.

But of course it takes a lot of time, usually when you have neglected it for a long time.

In such cases, aggressive chemicals usually come into play. However, despite their undoubted effectiveness, in the long term they do not bring benefits to human health. In addition, cleaning products are also a considerable amount in the family budget.

Therefore, it is undoubtedly better to use some more natural methods. In addition to the environmental side of things, you will also save a lot.

What can this product do?

A fairly commonly used remedy in this case is, for example, vinegar, often combined with baking soda. But a tip that is not so well known is garlic. Its use has many health benefits, doctors confirm.

Therefore, it is considered more of a medicine than a cleaning agent. However, these qualities should not be forgotten. Among other things, it has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties due to the content of allicin. How to use it during cleaning?

Allicin protects against bacteria and parasites, in addition, it neutralizes fungi and affects the environment that these fungi need to live.

This is why it is perfect for removing them in the toilet, that is, literally flushing them down the toilet. In fact, this trick is quite simple - as all ingenious ones are. Just peel a clove of garlic and put it in the toilet. It is best to do this in the evening, when you know you will not go to the toilet for a while.

Do this several times a week.

Leave it overnight and then wash as usual. The general recommendation is to use this trick at least twice a week so that the garlic's effects feed off each other.

Thanks to its antimicrobial and antifungal action, your toilet will stay clean. In addition, it can be used against yellow stains on the toilet. The procedure begins with a decoction. Boil 2.5 liters of water with three cloves of garlic. After the decoction has cooled, simply pour it into the toilet.
