How to make the toilet always smell good: a secret used in hotels

The bathroom and toilet at home can be made very comfortable, but the problem of unpleasant odour in the room will still arise from time to time. It can be solved with an air freshener, but the scent of these products is usually rather questionable. Meanwhile, hotel employees know how to deal with the unpleasant odour in this area.

Sante Plus has collected several life hacks on how to make the smell in the toilet pleasant for a long time. To do this, first of all, you need to get rid of the causes that spoil the atmosphere.

Lemon and vinegar deodorant

To prepare a product that will clean and freshen the toilet, you will need freshly squeezed lemon juice and white vinegar. Mix half a glass of both liquids in a spray bottle and shake thoroughly to make it homogeneous. Then spray it onto the walls of the toilet bowl and leave it on for 15 minutes. After that, clean it. The acids in the product will dissolve limescale that retains odours, white vinegar will absorb all foreign aromas, and lemon juice will leave a pleasant citrus scent.

Quick way to get rid of odours with a match

If you need to quickly remove odours in the toilet, simply light and immediately extinguish a regular match in the room. The mixture that ignites it instantly neutralises all unpleasant aromas.

3 ways to get rid of urine odour

One of the most persistent and difficult odours to remove in a toilet is urine. There are several ways to get rid of it.

The baking soda trick

Mix a tablespoon of baking soda with a little lemon juice to make a paste. Apply the paste to the toilet bowl from the inside for a few minutes and let it work for a few minutes, then simply rinse.

You can also simply pour half a cup of baking soda into the toilet drain and pour boiling water over it. After a few minutes, all foreign odours will disappear.

The toilet paper trick

Fragranced toilet paper is a controversial subject. But you can scent a roll without using the paper itself. Just put a few drops of your favourite essential oil on the sleeve. The cardboard will retain the scent for a long time, and you can refresh the oil if necessary. Keep the roll in a visible place.

The salt trick

Salt absorbs unpleasant odours as well as baking soda. Therefore, just pour 2-3 tablespoons of the product into the toilet at night. In the morning, you just have to flush it out and forget about all the unpleasant aromas.
