But as disgusting as it may seem, it is also crucial to keep your bathrooms clean and germ-free for you and your family’s well-being. That’s not all, considering all the personal time you spend in the bathroom, cleaning your body in and out, this space also screams for some care and cleanliness. So, here we have listed an easy step by step cleaning process to maintain a pristine bathroom on a regular basis.
Before you start, there are certain tips that will make this chore a little more effortless. When you stick to these easy-peasy one-time tips, you can follow the 7 steps every day and be amazed by your own efficiency.
Back to our 7 step cleaning process, this is a regular routine that will make bathroom clean-up less of a chore but inculcate a good habit. It would eventually make your bathroom demand less work less often.
Starting with your mirrors and countertops, wipe everything down with a microfiber, paper towel or your usual wiping cloth you are comfortable with. You can also use a glass spray or bathroom clean-up agent in a spray bottle. This not only helps in clearing your mirrors and countertop sparkling clean but also disinfects them all. If time permits, also quickly wipe down the bath faucets and parts of wall tiles that have drops of water splashed on. Particularly the back of your washbasin and near your shower area might need attention.
Wipe the toilet seat brim, its cover and from outside. While you are at it, just give a quick 30-second swish inside with the toilet brush. Use a toilet cleaner once in three days.
Sure, there is dust around in the washroom. We here, are actually asking you to dust it off. Dust the window or ventilator if there is any, and surely dust the outlet vent. The dusty exhaust fan is not only terrible looking but also unhygienic.
To make sure your garbage isn’t kept hostage in the bathroom for long, empty your wastebasket regularly. Use garbage bags or liners to ensure it’s easy to empty the trash and the waste bin doesn’t need thorough washing every time.
Bathroom corners are vulnerable to dirt, grime and scrap. Usually, the smaller dust particles, lost hair shampoo sachet and earbuds reach the corners with the flow of the water and get stuck there forever. Clean the corners specifically so it doesn’t spread throughout when you sweep later. Make sure your drain covers are clean and there isn’t any hair stuck at the strainer. Wipe the build-up around the drain area with the toilet paper before it turns slimy and leaves a stain.
Pick up anything unessential from the floor like used towel, clothes or anything that’s been just lying there unattended. Dust the bath mats to get off any gunk and quickly sweep the floor. If you see spots and blotches, or stubborn stains, you might want to mop it too.
Take a quick look for whatever you are running out of. Be it toilet roll or toothpaste or as a matter of fact, fresh towels, just replenish your comfort station with everything it needs for smooth functioning. Tidy up the towel on the bath rod, remove any unwanted clothes hanging behind the door.
Light a candle or use a diffuser to make your bathroom smell good. Scented candles can do wonders for an everlasting freshness.
