The gross-out factor of cleaning a toilet cannot be underestimated—but the gross-out factor of not cleaning a toilet is even worse. Better clean the toilet.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A pair of rubber gloves
Some toilet cleaner
All-purpose disinfectant spray cleaner
Paper towels
And a toilet brush
Goggles or glasses
An old toothbrush
And a wet pumice stone

Step 1: Ventilate room

Ventilate the room by turning on any fans and opening any doors or windows. Remove any items sitting on top of your toilet tank.

Step 2: Put on gloves

Put on the gloves.

Tip: If you're especially grossed out, or if you just want to look especially nutty, wear goggles or glasses to protect your eyes from being splashed with water or chemicals.

Step 3: Flush toilet

Flush the toilet.

Step 4: Lift seat

Lift the toilet seat.

Step 5: Apply cleaner

According to product instructions, apply toilet cleaner to the inside of your toilet bowl, making sure to reach under the rim. Allow the cleaner to stand, as directed, while you clean the rest of your toilet.

Step 6: Spray outside

Spray the outside surfaces of the toilet with the all-purpose cleaner, making sure to cover the entire commode, tank, handle, rim, both sides of the seat and lid, and the hinges.

Tip: To avoid creating toxic fumes, be careful not to mix your cleaning products.

Step 7: Wipe down toilet

Using paper towels, wipe down all of the areas of the toilet that you just sprayed.

Tip: You can use an old toothbrush to clean any cracks and crevices that are hard to reach.

Step 8: Scrub toilet

The bowl should be ready to clean by now. Scrub it thoroughly with the toilet brush, especially under the rim. Scrub as vigorously as you want, you're wearing your nutty goggles.

Tip: Scrub vigorously along the waterline, but if a ring remains, rub it with a wet pumice stone.

Step 9: Flush toilet

Flush the toilet and use the clean water to rinse the brush before you put it away. Just think: If you did this again soon, your toilet would never have the chance to get dirty...

  • I find that using my tongue to clean the toilet works best..but that's just me.

  • Wrong!! First thing that you don't do, when brushing the inside of the bowl avoid getting that close!! second thing is you do not bend on your knees close to the toilet mens tend to pee on the floor 3rd you dont start wiping off the bowl before the thank this one is usually cleaner than the bowl so start from top to bottom!! my personal opinion
