Can You Make Your Own Toilet Bowl Cleaner?

Whether you just ran out of your regular cleaner, are looking for a natural alternative, or are just wondering if you can make your own toilet bowl cleaner… the answer is YES, you sure can!

It’s so quick and simple to make, and works SO well!

What Are The Ingredients in Toilet Bowl Cleaner?

Well, you’ll just need the following two all-natural ingredients:

  • Baking Soda
  • Essential Oil for Scent {I like to use Orange or Lemon}

DIY Toilet Bowl Cleaner – Supplies Needed:

  • 1 1/2 cups Baking Soda
  • 50 drops of Orange or Lemon Essential Oil
  • 16 oz. Mason Jar
  • Optional: Old Lid from Parmesan Cheese Shaker

How Do You Make A Homemade Toilet Bowl Cleaner?

  1. Add Baking Soda, then Essential Oil drops to medium mixing bowl, and stir until well combined.
  2. Transfer mixture to mason jar, and if you have an old lid from a parmesan cheese shaker, you can affix the lid so you have an easy flip up sprinkle top!
  3. When it’s time to clean your toilet, sprinkle 1/4 cup of the mixture inside your toilet bowl… up around the sides and where the ‘ring’ likes to form. Let it sit for 10 minutes, scrub well with a toilet scrub brush, and then flush! Easy-peasy!

    I am happy that you are using natural homemade toilet cleaner instead of toxic toilet cleaning agents. I personally use the vinegar solution to clean my toilet.

    It is always nice when you can make some homemade cleaners. Big plus with the toilet bowl cleaner because the last thing you want is to discard hazardous chemicals into the sewage line. I like that it is as easy as using baking soda! Thanks for sharing!
