Never Scrub a Tub Again

I hate scrubbing the bathroom. The harsh cleaners burn my throat and lungs. And I honestly have better things to do with my life. So to solve my problem I have found the best miracle cleaner there is for a dirty bathroom...a tub.


After cleaning up the clutter and either vacuuming or sweeping the floor, partially fill your tub with very hot water.

You only need a few inches or so. More water won't make it cleaner, so no need to be wasteful.


And then close the door and forget about it for 20 min or so. Just until everything has really steamed up. Now if its the first time or your bathroom has had a rough week then you can spray it down with a homemade multi-purpose cleaner before closing the door.


After you've given it time to not only get nice and steamy, but pretty drippy, don't write on the mirror. I just makes one more mess to clean up. Take two rags, one for the tub and counter, the other for the floor and toilet. Then just wipe everything dry. You will be amazed at how easily everthing comes clean. If the ring around the tub doesn't wipe as easily, you can use a magic eraser, but it shouldn't need it once you start doing this easy trick once a week.
This same concept works with the microwave and a glass of water. Now go find something to do with all the free time you have, since you don't scrub tubs anymore either!
