HOMEMADE TOILET BOWL CLEANER TABLETS
Here’s the instructions on how to make safe, homemade toilet bowl cleaner tablets using natural ingredients.
MATERIALS:
1 cup Baking soda
½ cup Citric acid
1 tbsp. Hydrogen peroxide
½ tsp. Vinegar (Here’s the best kinds of vinegar to clean with.)
Eye dropper
20 Drops peppermint essential oil
Blue mica natural mineral powder(optional)
Popsicle stick
Spoon
Mixing bowl
Small bath bomb mold or other moulds like an ice cube tray
Colour of your choice.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Pour 1 cup of baking soda into a mixing bowl.
Add in ½ cup of citric acid.
In a separate small bowl or cup, mix together ½ teaspoon of vinegar and 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide, and set it aside.
To the mixing bowl, add in a few scoops of blue mica natural mineral powder to color your mixture if desired. These are all natural mineral powders made to color bath bombs. Mix thoroughly with a spoon to distribute the color evenly.
Slowly drop 20 drops of peppermint essential oil along the top of the baking soda mixture. Do not pour all 20 drops in at once, do them one at a time and distribute them throughout the surface of the mixture. If you place too much liquid in the mixture at one time, you risk setting off the chemical reaction that causes the toilet cleaning fizzies to fizz when placed into the toilet bowl.
Stir the essential oil in completely, making sure to break up any clumps.
Next, drop the vinegar and hydrogen peroxide mixture into the bowl with the eyedropper, one drop at a time. You likely will not need to use the entire mixture. After you have a layer of dots added, stir the mixture well. Mixing it with your hands is best, to make sure you are breaking up the clumps. Again, you do not want to add too much liquid at one time, or you will start the chemical reaction.
Once the mixture has the consistency of damp sand, and stays in a loose clump when you squeeze it, then it is ready. If you accidentally make the mixture too wet, you can add in some more baking soda/citric acid mixture.
Press the mixture into your moulds tightly, and allow them to dry overnight. The next day, dump out the moulds, and store your cleaners in an airtight container until ready to use. (Mason Jars are great ways to store the toilet bowl cleaners with a farmhouse look.)
To use, drop a toilet cleaning fizzy into the toilet toilet bowl,Let it sit for several minutes and then flush, or use the toilet brush for additional cleaning power.
