One of the “most effective” ways to get rid of limescale in your toilet bowl is not with white vinegar or baking soda, but another natural ingredient that you likely already have in your kitchen.

Cleaning the toilet can be one of the most dreaded chores in the home as it can be incredibly difficult to remove stains and limescale if you are not using the right products…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Limescale can be tricky to clean as it is mainly made up of a compound called calcium carbonate, which clings to surfaces and is resistant to most cleaning products.

Luckily, Nathaniel Jamesson, an expert from the cleaning service Get It Cleaned, has shared there is one simple kitchen item that can break down toilet imescale without having to scrub at it for ages.

She said: “One of the most cost-effective and efficient cleaning products that will help you get rid of limescale in your toilet is lemon juice.”

It may seem strange but lemon juice can naturally dissolve the calcium carbonate in limescale due to how acidic it is as is also slightly abrasive it will be easy to remove without scrubbing.

How to clean limescale from a toilet with lemon juice

All you need to do is pour lemon juice down the toilet bowl and then leave it without flushing for at least 10 minutes but may need longer depending on how much limescale there is.

Once the time is up, gently wipe the toilet bowl with a sponge on your toilet brush to remove the now-dissolved limescale.

The residue should come away easily, then all you have to do is flush the toilet and it should be sparkling clean once more. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Nathaniel said: “In addition to being fairly cheap and efficient, lemon juice is a natural product that will not pose the health risks of the harsh chemicals some dedicated limescale cleaners use.”

What else can you use to get rid of limescale?

If the limescale is partially stubborn or you do not have any lemon juice then another way to clean your toilet is with cola, which may be strange but it is highly effective.

Nathaniel said: “Some find it surprising that its cleaning qualities are not just a myth. In reality, cola is one of the most effective and budget-friendly solutions for removing limescale from your toilet.

“Just open the bottle of cola and guide it around the toilet bowl’s rim. Let the cola sit and work its magic as a powerful limescale remover.”

Cola is acidic and fizzy which both help to loosen up the limescale. Once you flush the toilet most of it should come away without having to scrub at it.

Your toilet should be limescale-free without too much effort or time using only natural items you likely already had in your kitchen.

Scientists from Norway, Sweden, Germany, and the UK are warning us about some serious problems happening in the ocean because of how fast our planet is heating up. They studied a major ocean current called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC for short.

This current acts like a giant conveyor belt, moving warm and cold water around the Atlantic Ocean. It helps keep the climate balanced, especially in the Northern parts of the world like North America and Europe. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

What the scientists found is worrying. There’s another ocean current up in the Arctic called the Beaufort Gyre.

When a Florida mom hired a nanny to help care for her son, she never thought the decision would make her a grandma. After realizing the nanny had given birth to her 11-year-old’s baby, the distraught mother says she “threw up.” Five years later, the young father decided to speak out.

Chris McBride was only 11 years old when his family’s live-in nanny changed the Florida boy’s life forever. Marissa Mowry, then 22, was hired by Chris’s mom Nadean Campbell to care for the child in their Hillsborough County home. Instead, the Port Richey woman sexually assaulted the 11-year-old boy and even gave birth to his baby. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

But, behind closed doors, Mowry was grooming young Chris. “It was a game called ‘are you nervous,’ and the object of that game was she’d place her hands somewhere on my body and I’d say if I was nervous or not and things escalated from there,” a 17-year-old Chris told Inside Edition…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
