Keeping the bathroom clean is essential for maintaining hygiene and a pleasant living environment. Here are some tips to help you keep your bathroom clean:
Remove unnecessary items from the bathroom. Clutter can make cleaning more difficult and create hiding spots for dirt and germs.
When feasible, open a window or use an exhaust fan to ensure adequate ventilation. Proper ventilation inhibits the growth of mold and mildew and helps lower humidity.
When cleaning, start with the highest surfaces (e.g., shelves, mirrors) and work your way down to the floor. This way, any dust or dirt that falls will be cleaned up as you go.
Pay special attention to high-touch and high-moisture areas like sinks, faucets, toilet handles, and shower/tub surfaces. Scrub these surfaces and disinfect them regularly to prevent the spread of germs.
Grout can accumulate dirt and grime. Use a grout brush and a mixture of baking soda and water or a specialized grout cleaner to clean and brighten the grout lines.
If you notice mold or mildew in your bathroom, use a mildew remover or a mixture of bleach and water.
Keep a small trash can in the bathroom to dispose of tissues, cotton balls, and other bathroom-related waste. Empty it regularly.
