When I embark on my bathroom cleaning routine, I always start by letting my toilet bowl cleaner sit while I tackle the rest of the bathroom. This gives it time to work its magic, making the toilet cleaning process more effective.
1. Pour the Washing Powder
Now, for the star of our show – washing powder. Begin your toilet cleaning process by pouring a cup of your preferred laundry detergent into the bowl. Ensure it's evenly distributed for optimal cleaning coverage.
2. Brush Away Grime
Get your toilet brush wet and swish it around the bowl, making sure to rub the detergent into all the cracks and crevices. This step ensures a thorough cleaning and tackles those hard-to-reach spots.
Leave the detergent to work its wonders.
3. Flush and Wipe
After completing the rest of your bathroom, return to the toilet. Give it a flush, and don't be surprised if it's extra bubbly – that's the washing powder doing its job.
Use the toilet brush again to rub off any residue, and then give it a final rinse with another flush.

Maureen Cox on Dec 20, 2023Why not? If your washing machine water goes in septic its no dif, which mine does. It's probably better than a bleach cleaner. I also flush a pkg of yeast couple times a year into septic so septic functions properly. This from my septic cleaning guy.
