Is that dishwasher soap? Or dishwashing soap. I’ve never seen either of them in the container type you have, so I’m unsure. Thank you so much.

I've been using dish soap and baking soda for a few years now, thanks to you. I wish I could get all the money back that I spent on every bathroom product on the shelf trying to achieve what this recipe does. Nothing I've bought at the store has worked as well or as easily as dish soap and baking soda. Crazy.

THIS IS LONG, BUT MAY BE SUPER HELPFUL. I don’t know what your disability is, but…..a Swiffer pole can be your best friend, as it’s able to move in every direction possible. No bending. No reaching. 1) To clean mirrors, I put a microfiber cloth ( cheap ones from Amazon or the Dollar Tree. Absolutely no need to get expensive ones!) on the end of a Swiffer pole. I then spray the bathroom mirrors with Windex, and wipe it clean with the pole. No bending or reaching. I have found I don’t even need to wipe in any particular pattern to avoid streaking. 2) To make cleaning a bathtub or shower easier, start by making a little concoction in a spray bottle: 1/2 cup white vinegar, 1 cup water, 20 drops tea tree essential oil. After you use of tub/shower, spray it down with this mixture. No need to wipe or rinse. This will help soap scum from building up. When it comes time for your “real cleaning,” there are lots of DIYs out there, but I use traditional products, as I find they work best in most cases. Spray your whole tub area with “Fantastic.” Leave it for 10 minutes. Get a clean microfiber cloth and put it on the end of a Swiffer pole. Sound familiar? Either with a bit of a hot water running in the tub, or a bucket of hot water near by, wipe the whole thing down. Again, no bending or reaching. NOTE: If you have some areas with serious soap scum, and need more elbow grease, you can simply attach one of those thin, green cleaning pads (I forget the name!) with rubber bands to the Swiffer pole and go in with that first. Obviously if your disability is a respiratory issue, wear a mask or use more “green” products. Let me know if you need some more ideas. There are two channels here on YT, you may find helpful. GOOD LUCK!!

Hi Melissa I just want to share my Idea I’ve very been very happy with. My hack is when there is the need to rinse a tight space, for instance under the rim of a bathroom sink or around the bathroom faucet I use an old Waterpik Water Flosser. I can control the pressure and angle of water flow. I find it most useful, also in tight spaces of other items. I use so many of your ideas and hacks nearly everyday. Thanks so much for sharing all that you do! You’re the best!!

Thank you for your tips on baking soda! When we bought our very old house the white tub was so old it was yellow and rough feeling. I first sprayed with a can of Scrubbing Bubbles and let sit 10 minutes and then it washed down the drain with a scrubbing sponge and then immediately sprinkled the wet tub with Bon-Ami powder completely covering it and let it sit wet for 20 minutes. Then I scrubbed it with the abrasive side of a sponge. It got off all the yellow and the tub looked good enough not to need to replace it. For some reason these two products used in that particular order work so very well together, much better than separately. The Scrubbing Bubbles must soften the grime enough to allowed the Bon-Ami powder to get into it to remove it. Scrubbing Bubbles spray alone works fantastic on faucets- don't even need to scrub them really, just rinse and they shine!

You did a master class for Get organized HQ on how to clean your bathroom. I really LOVED it. Only difference between that class was that you told us about letting it sit and how important it was to give it time to work and that if it was to dry you need to soak it back down with the dawn vinegar spray. Also to just throw all microfiber rags in a center of the bathroom when we're done with them. To then use them now to hand mop the floor out.

Vileda Bath Magic Bathroom Mop. No bending over the tub with this. I also wrap a microfiber cloth around the head and use it for mopping tight areas behind the toilet and such.

I add more alcohol to dish soap. Once that is rinsed through, I spot spray any mold as we have stone walls. I let it evaporate and dry. Then rinse.

I use just straight baking soda. Fill the tub about 1/4 full hot water, pour in about 2 cups baking soda. Then use a non-scratching scrubbie (e.g. a white 3M pad) to scrub around the tub. Drain the tub, then fill 1/4 full again with water to rinse.

This is pretty great, thanks for sharing. I will try this method on cleaning day this week. I also use baking soda, but I mix with vinegar for that same foaming effect. I let it sit for a little and use circular bristle brush to get into crevices, because my tub bottom is textured. Then I usually cover the area in soap and bleach and cover the whole area. It’s terrible for my lungs, but it’s been working so far hehe

I use Ajax and a broom from the Dollar Tree since I can’t bend very well. It’s quick and easy.

I love using a mix of vinegar and dish soap on my tub. Dawn power spray works well also. I've lived in my home for 4 years, the tub is still as white as the day I moved in.

I might need to start buying dawn power spray, I know their regular dish soap is the bomb.

That's also what I use. I spray it all over, wait about 20 minutes, then go back and scrub it off. My tub has a this non-skid textured bottom and it was really hard to clean until I started using that spray. I also use a Mr. Clean magic eraser. I haven' t tried Dawn power spray yet, but maybe I will next time.

I switched up the essential oil for combat petitgrain (kaffir lime leaf and twig) which turned out nicely

Thanks for this recommendation. We had really really bad soap scum and it helped a lot…. There is still a little bit left, but I hate using chemicals if I don’t have to. How to figure out how to deal with wood floors.

I typically use Method shower spray to clean my tub. If there is yellow-orange mildew then I mix baking soda with bleach to make a thick paste and spread it only on the mildew and leave it on for 30 minutes then scrub the area and it gets it clean and white again.

@@gaynorpatterson2915 Hello there. If I’m using it right away I do equal parts of each (1 cup of Dawn dish soap and 1 cup of vinegar). The mixture tends to thicken over time. You can add more vinegar or water to thin it out. Use a gentle shake to mix the two together. Hope this helps 😃

After taking a bath, put a little shampoo (whichever one is cheapest) on the wash cloth and wipe down the sides of the tub as the water drains out. Helps to eliminate the dreaded bathtub ring between deep cleanings.
