[@queenbee7819]

Thank you! I watched a Japanese man's video on daily tasks that make big difference. 1. Wipe down/clean toilet daily. I do this almost every night, just before I take a shower. It only takes a minute when you do it really often. 2. push your chair in when you leave table. 2. take your shoes off when you enter house, and line them up (we used to just pile them).

[@peretzleah]

Ha! I think I saw that video too.

I am a very neat person by nature, so everyday I clean my bathrooms and kitchen. I always clean my sinks, toilets, showers, mirrors, empty trash cans and change hand towels daily. This makes cleaning much easier and faster since these rooms don’t accumulate dirt. I change my bath towels weekly. I also use my own hand towels and don’t share. If I’m using our guest bathroom , I use a tissue or napkins to wash my hands. I don’t like to use hand towels in other peoples houses either… lol 😆 I will use tissue or toilet paper instead… I’m OCD 😂

I use a sheet of paper towel folded up at the bottom of the tooth brush holder and once a week when I wash the holder I put a new paper towel in. The paper towel gets most of the grime so it makes cleaning the holder so much easier.

[@plantsredwine759]

I save my glass jelly jars and use those as toothbrush holders, easy to just change it out and throw the gross one in the dishwasher when it gets to looking gross

[@babiejo59]

I have another tip to prevent scum from a wet toothbrush… I always take a tissue after I brush my teeth and dry my toothbrush with it so it dries and there is no residue of toothpaste . Problem solved. 😊

[@teresahaven9222]

I have several comments on this. For many years i worked cleaning motel rooms. When we did bathrooms, we would open toilet and spray inside bowl and underside of seat then top of seat and under lid and hinge then top of lid and the rest of toilet, including outside and floor around toilet. Leave that to soak and move on to shower/tub and clean it. Clean the floor, avoiding toilet area, then toss that rag in used pile. Spray inside and outside of door and top of door, wipe all that down then on to toilet. Clean all of that, leaving floor till last. Toss rag. Spray floor all around toilet with anti bacterial, giving wide sweep. Then clean mirror then sink and counter and then floor around toilet again. Place paper strip around seat and lid and done. Im sure i forgot steps but it has been over 40 years. Now you were speaking of pink mildew/mold or whatever it is. I'm 59 years old and have been battling pnuemonia for a year and a half. Spent almost all of last year in hospital. That pink crud? That i wasnt very good about scrubbing off everytime i cleaned here at home very well could have been the cause of it. I was told to mix 1/2 cup of common bleach with 3 1/2 cups water and spray the pink with that and leave it sit for about 5 minutes and make sure exhaust fan is running. Then if you still see pink scrub with a cleaning toothbrush. Then rinse VERY WELL. Last thing. I use any type of dollar tree clear shampoo to remove soap scum in the tub. A little goes a long ways and gotta rinse that well, too, or it is like you're ice skating!! Thanks so much for your videos!!! I have learned so much from them!!

[@GardengalAAA]

I was told the pink mold is from hair conditioners. I presoak the bottom of my shower curtain in a bucket of oxy clean first to remove the stains and then I throw it in the washer.

[@cindycarson5795]

Bath towels : every two days hand towels : daily , used to clean sink at the end of the night washcloths : after every use Appreciated your expertise on these unpleasant matters. Extra good drain cleaning procedure

[@maryjanesmith9600]

I loved your video. I pretty much clean bathrooms like you do except for spraying. I don't like using spray bottles due to arthritus in hands and asthma. When I clean my own bathroom or kitchens and bathrooms at a non-profit where I do a lot of cleaning, I mix cleaners/sanitizers and water in a bucket. Then I put in as many folded microfiber or cloth towels I think I will need. The cleaning/water solution should be just enough to cover and wet the towels. I use the wet towels folded. When the folded towel surface becomes dirty, I turn the towel to a new clean surface. if the towel is folded twice, it gives you 8 surfaces to use before you need a new towel. When the towel is completely dirty, I put it in a second dry bucket and pull a new towel from the clean solution. I pull a new towel after wiping the toilet or floor. I never return a dirty towel to the clean solution bucket to rinse out. When preparing and cleaning a meal at the non-profit I use this method. I prepare enough towels in my bucket to sanitize surfaces before I begin cooking, to clean as I go, and to clean up afterwards. I never have to hunt for a clean towel or wonder if it's clean or not. I pour the leftover sanitizing solution down the drain and whirl the gargage disposal. I make up a new bucket of towels before the next meal.

[@whitneyr.846]

My added tip to washing a toilet, getting a roll of the shop towels instead of standard paper towels.. they are a little hardier but still disposable. You can use less amount though (cause they are super strong)

[@LM-qs6eq]

After moving to a new home and having RA, I started using a product that I spray in the shower after each use. There are several products like this. The one I use is called Clean Shower. A quick spray after you shower, let's the leftover soap residue slide off by itself. No scrubbing. Saves my hands, elbows, and shoulders, as well as time. We have the fiber glass type tubs with no seams, and it makes my life so much easier. Occasionally, you still have to clean the ledges, but it is so much easier, and after 10 years, my showers still look like new.

[@GardengalAAA]

We have the same fiberglass type shower with bad hard water stains at the base in the corner. I sprayed Lemi Shine disinfecting bathroom cleaner and left it on for a day. Came back and it was 100% clean. No scrubbing needed. My husband was so mad because he scrubbed it with comet the last time and it was grueling lol.

[@deer1234ism]

Please do a video on how you clean and store all these cleaning clothes and how often you replace with new ones . Do you clean the clothes, even the dust wiping ones, once done ?

[@jhbd25]

I’ve been wondering this for a while!

[@АнастасияАндреева-с2ч]

I can tell you as a prof cleaner that all cleaning clothes must be washed near 2 hours (90-95 degree) after every cleaning. Prof clothes are very strong and it is not a problem to wash them regularly. Plus there are different types of clothes and they must be washed separately. Also you do not need to add conditioner. You should add a small spoon of washing liquid and that is all.

[@The_CR_Phil]

@@АнастасияАндреева-с2чI live in an area that has no hot water for washing machines. What do you recommend? Thank you.

[@sdavisrdh]

The biggest game changer for me, living with 4 boys, is a removable toilet seat. Take it off, put it in the shower/tub and clean it well. Also you can clean the gunk round those nasty bolts that it attaches to really well. It gets really clean. You’re welcome!

[@CBull015]

We were getting gross mould in our bathroom drain and I couldn't get rid of it even with environmentally friendly drain cleaners. And then one day I decided to try toilet cleaner (an environmentally friendly and cheap one), and let that soak down there, and it worked so well! Now I'm using a little bit on a regular basis and it's keeping the drain nice and clean!

[@1Lightdancer]

Love your tips and tricks as usual! On towels - I'm with you on avoiding well used towels in other folks' bathrooms! I wash my own at least weekly - and flip the handtowel for a dry surface after a couple of uses! Spa tip for guests: roll a bunch of washcloths or guest towels, and place upright in a small tub or bucket, and have an empty tub to drop into, after use! Each guest can easily have their own towel, and know it's clean! Make a cute sign to go with They can be a rainbow of colors, or pristine white (with several kids, my daughter uses plush white for their everyday towels, and uses bleach - which gets our makeup etc)

[@robinjohnson5014]

Thanks fot sharing These helpful tips

[@celtkar27]

I had a friend that would do the same thing. She would buy a stack of white face cloths for the powder room for guests. Everyone got their own cloth to dry their hands. Just an extra nice touch by the hostess!

[@iabbervocium]

A tip I learned for cleaning out sink drains, wear a pair of latex gloves while you clean out the drain. That way you don't have to touch the nasty stuff that comes out. When you're done you grab all the gross stuff with one hand and pull the glove off, then put the dirty glove in your other hand and pull the other glove off around it. Neat little package of sink goo without any touching.

[@fazeelalaher6250]

Was going to ask why Chad didn't wear latex gloves while cleaning the drain.

🤣 sink goo! Great description! I feel like if the sink goo actually touched my skin that my skin would melt! You?

[@jamestriplett2876]

Awesome video!! My ideal bath room and shower, I actually experienced partly in a casino suite, and partly in a friends home. And yes, it was pricey. The shower was 2 person, and had multiple heads. 2 in the ceiling, 2 at normal head height, and 2 near the floor. there were also multiple drains. Basically, the shower was designed to shoot water "everywhere". I got so excited, while everyone went to the casino, I took a 45 minute shower. There was a whirlpool tub too. My friend had a similar setup, but I also like their vanity set up, where she could sit down and primp. A linen/towel/wash cloth shelf area separated the 2. He had his area for shaving, toothbrush and general stuff. Her area, since she was more of a slob, in my opinion, looked like a constant disaster area. THey had doors set up to separate the bathroom from the master bedroom, but they could open them up. They also had a sliding glass door in their master bedroom, that opened up to a wooded area behind their home. She has a walk in closet that is set up like a models area for a show. She stores all of her seasonal clothes and stuff in that closet in 1 area, then an area for shoes, accessories, purses. There's even a dressing room in her closet. There's a door in the bathroom that opens to her closet. His walkin is a little simpler. There was even a washer dryer area in a separate place off the bathroom, to keep their laundry separate from the kids. The floors were heated, the mirrors were anti fog, the vanities were heated. and the climate control was separate, and you could feel walking in different areas of just their bedroom. He had 2 offices, 1 off the master bedroom, and then 1 down the hall.

First time watcher here. I saw you on the clutterbug podcast. You have some really good tips, especially leaving the cleaning solution for 5 minutes. I always spray on then wipe off. I am going to try leaving it longer.

[@maryellenerikson1397]

I love Bac-out (the enzyme cleaner). It is the best product for pet accidents as well. I used to use a pet-specific cleaner that used to give me a headache from the overwhelming fragrance. The Bac-out does not have an artificial fragrance. The old cleaner also left residual stains on my beige carpet but the Bac-out completely removes the stains to the point that I have to "mark" the spot if I don't want to step on the damp spot while it dries.

[@zuzu2416]

I’ve geen so inspired and motivated by ALL your cleaning videos through the years. Just so excellent! I have one recommendation- pin hair up when cleaning. I kept thinking as you were wiping around the toilet- your beautiful hair might be swishing along the surfaces as well. . . Just a thought. 😊

[@DanniBambi]

Melissa I've got a game-changer for you, or at least it was for me: wipe down your toilet with toilet paper instead of paper towels. I spray down the toilet, clean the inside of the toilet bowl with a toilet brush, then I wipe down the outside of the toilet with toilet paper. When each little wad becomes saturated I toss it in the bowl of the toilet as I go and then I flush it all at the end. So I end up only flushing the toilet once and I don't fill up my wastebasket with paper towels.

That's good one! Thanks for sharing :)

I clean my general bath towels and hand towels once a week. Yes it's probably the wrong thing to do but there's a cost of living crisis going on and even running water to wash clothes is expensive.

So, we should use vinegar and baking soda in the drains instead of drain cleaner? Thanks for this tip!

Yes the foaming reaction helps loosen up clogs. Equal parts vinegar and baking soda. When foaming is done then pour a sauce pan of boiling water down the drain.

I've recently started relying heavily on hydrogen peroxide especially for porous surfaces.

You're totally right about the paper towel toilet cleaner cuz despite the waste, it's so much easier. I know it's an environment sin, but for the top half of the toilet, I use a couple paper towels.

[@herminapearce1044]

If you want to reduce waste in that area, I have some ideas. I read in a zero-waste cookbook once, an idea to save up unused serviettes from cafes/take-away and use them in place of paper towel. Also, some people use old newspaper for cleaning. Or if you have worn out tea towels, t-shirts, leggings, underwear, or whatever, you can cut them up and use them for disposable rags. I'm sure there are more ideas out there. You get to reduce waste, declutter, and stop spending money on things that are meant to be thrown out straight away.

I change my shower towels whenever I have a 90 degree laundry load together. As a one person household on low income I wait until I have enough stuff for 90 degrees.

Could you recommend an enzymatic cleaner?

[@annoravetz5908]

Odo-ban. It doesn't say it's enzymatic on the label but it is. Also, Biz.

Was looking for the link on how to clean natural stone. I have granite walls in my shower and bathtub. Thank you.

[@fitchick500]

I have a Toto Washout toilet bowl. Can you provide any tips for that. The manufacture instructions don't seem to clean well enough. Also, How do you handle cleaning the rectangular long shower drain....I have one too! Lots of hair etc to get out and clean. My plumber had to lift it up and it was crazy what was there. Thank you so much! Love your products and channel!

[@delwoodbarker]

Than you for your videos, Melissa. Do you have a tip for making toilet bolt covers stay on when cleaning?

[@emiller7040]

Squeeze clear silicone caulk into the cover and place it over the bolt & let it cure for 24 hours. That should help. If not, plumbers have a putty they use.

love this video, i just know i’ll be coming back again. shame i already cleaned the bathroom today 😅

[@sneza-mreza-storys]

I just LOVE your sense of humor

[@DS-jx7mn]

Great tips! I have one bathroom in my house that always has a gray lining in the toilet bowl within days of cleaning. Any comments?

[@GardengalAAA]

1/4 c of baking soda OR polident in your toilet tank. You need to deodorize the tank.

[@cybill28]

Love your tips! Will need to stick to baking powder as you can not get hold of borax in Germany. The distribution to private households is forbidden.

I wash hand towels quite often (kids walk out of the bathroom all the time with them!) wash cloths are one time used along with body towels

[@debbiemize2269]

Thank you for all of these great tips! I have followed you for many years now (before Riley!) and have learned so much from you! I have also recommended your channel to my housecleaner 😉! My dream bathroom would a self cleaning one🤣😂! Seriously, though, I would want a huge walk-in shower without anything to step over. It would have two sink areas and two commodes, yes, a his and a hers! I would also have a bidet.

[@jblilbear]

I like the way you think. 😎

[@madonnaring1160]

What would you use to clean black(on purpose) grout? I'm noticing white spots from soap etc but don't want to accidentally bleach it with hydrogen peroxide!

[@joeshmo5399]

9:10 You should use a wet vac to clear the drain. Just add water to seal the P trap when you are done.

[@Carolmaizy]

Face cloth- every use Hand towel- daily during Covid years, now every two days Bath towels- twice a week

[@BryanRamiro]

I'll definitely use the toilet bowl brush one. Usually, I just buy a new one when it gets old and dirty at home (and so my clients in their houses). This tip will save me (and my clients) some money! Haha

[@ghadaka4037]

I must admit; you did a great job in explaining cleaning in details ; nonetheless; I HAVE NOT LEARNED ANYTHING NEW FROM YOUR VIDEO!!! I was hoping for new tricks/ advice/ techniques in cleaning my house. You’re caring & sweet but us ladies are looking for new tricks/ products to cut down on the cleaning and get better results…!!! Thank you

I don’t see the link for products to use on natural stone (mine is onyx) showers.

[@Godislove2016]

Hi, I heard that adding soap to vinegar would neutralize the solution and hence not as effective. Please advise. Thank you
