Clean toilets that always smell good, anyone?
And all this naturally and saving money?
For that, there is no need to buy effervescent tablets which are chemical and expensive!
Fortunately, there is an easy and economical recipe for making your own toilet tablets (and better than Harpic's).
The trick is to mix baking soda, citric acid, soda crystals and percarbonate . Watch:
Preparation time: 5 minutes.
- 110 g baking soda
- 100g citric acid
- 25 g of soda crystals
- 10 g of percarbonate
- 5 g of sodium coco sulphate
- 25 drops of essential oils (tee tree, eucalyptus, lemon or mint)
- salad bowl
- 1 ice cube tray
- glass jar
- water
- gloves
1. Put on the gloves.
2. Mix all the solid ingredients in a bowl.
3. Add 25 drops of one of the essential oils.
4. Moisten very lightly with a little water.
5. Put the mixture in the ice cube tray.
6. Pack the powder firmly into the tray.
7. Let dry overnight.
8. Unmold and store in a glass jar.
9. Throw a tablet in the bottom of the bowl and let it act.
And There you go ! Your DIY toilet cleaning tablets are already ready :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
No more toilets full of limestone and smelling of pee!
Eco-friendly descaled toilets are yours without having used harmful products.
Know that you can replace essential oils with fragrance.
Choose the fragrance of your choice so that the pellets diffuse a good smell as they melt. Lemon or rose are my favorite scents.
Put on a pair of gloves to handle the soda crystals and the sodium coco sulphate.
Do not stir the mixture with a metal spoon, but rather a wooden one.
When you pour the water, the products react and foam. It must therefore be incorporated very very gently and in small quantities.
Once in the mould, the mixture continues to swell slightly, don't worry:it will stop on its own.
Store your pastilles in an airtight jar away from moisture.
Bicarbonate sanitizes and deodorizes toilets. With its grainy side, it helps to loosen dirt or limestone.
Citric acid effectively cleans and disinfects just like soda crystals. Citric acid also dissolves limescale.
Percarbonate whitens and stains surfaces.
SCS foams on contact with water and activates the effervescent reaction which helps loosen grime or limescale.
