Read on for the ingredients.

What You'll Need:

1/2 cup baking soda
1/4 cup hydrogen peroxide
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup liquid castile soap
1 cup hot water
10 drops essential oil (optional)
Squeeze bottle
Large mixing bowl
Measuring cups
Whisk
Funnel
Directions:

Measure and add the baking soda to a large bowl along with the liquid castile soap, which you can find at your local health food store.


If you'd like to personalize the scent of your commode cleaner, then add several drops of essential oil. Eucalyptus, lemon, orange, or rosemary give this cleaner a lovely scent and are also antibacterial. Measure and add the hydrogen peroxide to the mixture, which is a natural whitener.


Now measure and slowly add the hot water, whisking gently until things are incorporated. Get ready for some action, and add the vinegar. Give things a stir until the foaming stops.


Use a funnel to carefully add the toilet bowl cleaner to a squeeze-top bottle, and you're ready to tackle that bathroom!


Squeeze the cleaner under the rim of your commode, and let it do its job for five to 10 minutes. Give a quick scrub with a toilet bowl brush, then flush.
