How to Sanitize and Deodorize Your Toilet:

#1: Use Clothespins as Deodorizer

Pour some of your favorite fabric softener into a small container, then clip the clothespins around the side making sure the tips are submerged in the liquid, and leave them for around 20 minutes to soak. After a couple of minutes, transfer the clothespins and clip them on the edges of the toilet seat. This will help emit a fragrant smell not only on your toilet but the bathroom as well as it slowly releases the scent of the fabric softener.

#2: DIY Citrus Deodorizer

Take a large orange and peel off the skin, then shred or blend the peel until fine, and transfer it in a jar. Pour in some alcohol, then close the jar, and let it sit for 3 days. After a few days, strain the mixture, then pour the liquid into a spray bottle, and spray the solution to a toilet paper roll. This will make your whole bathroom smell nice every time you roll the toilet paper, you can also spray the mixture directly into the toilet to remove any bad odor.

#3: Clean Your Toilet with Coca-Cola

Stick some paper towels on the inside of your toilet, then pour in the Coca-Cola making sure most of it gets into the paper towel, and leave it for about 10 minutes. Remove the dirty paper, then scrub the bowl with a toilet brush, and rinse it well. For extra cleaning strength, you can also apply toothpaste as you scrub the entire toilet, then give it a good rinse. This will also make your toilet sparkling clean and smell fresh all day.
