When cleaning the bathroom make sure that you don't waste time by redoing the same areas. Concentrate on the cleaning in hand and you will get it done faster and better.

I find that a hard bristled toothbrush is the best cleaning tool for the bathroom. It really gets hard dried on gunk loosened up nicely

to clean a shower curtain, toss it in the washer on gentle with a couple of dirty towels (because the curtain likely isn't absorbant) along with a cup of baking soda and vinegar, or bleach. i saw aggie demonstrate another method (tossing it in the tub and stomping it like you're stomping grapes), but honestly - this is much easier. :-P

If you’ve got a partial blockage in your bath drain, try filling the bath to the top with water and leave. The weight of the water sometimes clears the blockage. Don’t try with a completely blocked pipe as you could find yourself wading in lots of water trying to fix it.

I put my children's bath toys into the dishwasher to clean them. If they are really funky I will soak them in bleach solution first. If the toy won't make it through the dishwasher, it wasn't really worth it! Also, I removed the squeaky from the toy shark, after discovering that it was growing black mold inside. It doesn't make noise anymore, but I know it won't hurt the kids either. :) Love Kim & Aggie my heroes!

to get candle wax off of most anything, heat it with a hairdryer and rub it off.

If you have had a sore throught or your kids have dropped their toothbrush">toothbrush, use orange flavored listerine to soak your toothbrush">toothbrush in for ten minutes. I also like to rinse out the tooth brush holder with this. It has a nice fresh smell .

louise....if your tub is either ceramic/porcelain or fiberglass type, try dilute white vinegar, spray on and let sit for a while, then soap using either a grease cutting dish washing detergent or a shampoo for oily hair without built in conditioner. Rinse well. For stubborn rings,a paste of water and baking soda or those new erasure cleaning pads ( Mr. Clean) and some elbow grease should do it. Let me know how it goes.....Sparky

I buy a heavy duty shower curtain, so when it gets dirty I throw it in the washing maching with my towels in hot water with a little bleach. Put the load in the dryer but be sure to only leave the shower cutain in for 5 to 8 minutes ( depending how hot you have your setting). The shower curtain comes out pliable and clean as a whistle! Hang it right up again and enjoy the sparkle!!

A quick and easy way to clean a moldy, scaly shower curtain is to simply toss it into the washing machine with a cup or two of white vinegar and a small amount of laundry detergent (with the machine set on "warm water"). All hail Kim and Aggie!

This is actually a question! I have white tiles in my bathroom, and I was wondering how you would clean and take out all the dirt from between the tiles. It is a rented house.

Cleaning out the plug hole in a shower tray can be pretty gruesome with lots of slimy hair and stuff? I have found the perfect tool. Use a cheap hairbrush, the type with bristles all the way round. Push into the hole, turn it around and all the hairs blocking the plug will be pulled onto the brush. You can rinse off the brush and use it again. Takes seconds.

To clean tile grout line mix 2cup of bicarbonate soda, 1cup borax, and about 1cup of hot water. This will make a paste. Smear some of the paste in grout line and scurb with a grout brush. Second have some clean hot water in another bucket for rinseing.

When I got tired of trying to remove soap scum from the tub and shower I switched to using a shower gel instead of bar soap. Bar soap contains fat, shower gel doesn't. Much easier to clean and maintain.
