Bathroom cleaning?

How do you all clean your bathrooms? Like what products do you use when you clean the bathroom?

I HATE cleaning the bathroom, but I like it to be very clean. In between cleanings, I use clorox anti bacterial wipes to clean the sink, toilet handle, etc. Then on cleaning days, I use the following:

Toilet: Toilet bowl cleansing liquid (forgot brand), scrub with toilet brush

Sink: Soft Scrub, apply and wipe with sponge

Tub: Tilex Mildew spray and then Soft Scrub - the non slip mat always gets gross no matter how much I try to clean it so we just end up replacing it every couple of months.

Then sweep, and mop the floor.

Is there anything else I should be doing or something you would suggest I use/do instead? I was thinking of buying green products when my current supplies run out, so I'd love suggestions on those too.

Our routines seem pretty similar. I use...

Toilet: Clorox toilet bowl cleaner w/a scrub brush + Scrubbing Bubbles flushable bathroom wipes for the tank, etc.

Sink: Comet Soft Cleanser w/a sponge + Clorox wipes for the faucet (I also use the Clorox wipes on the door knobs & light switch)

Tub: Scrubbing Bubbles Mega Shower Foam for the tiles & tub...or the foam with Comet Soft Cleanser for the tub depending on my mood

Windex & Pledge for the mirrors, lights, vanity, towel bars, baseboard, etc.

Then I sweep & use my Shark Steam Mop

Start by putting toilet cleaner in toilet and let it sit.

Spray and wipe tiles on walls. Our walls are tiled up to 4 feet, so it's a lot of tile.

Spray shower walls with water, spray with cleaner, brush the walls.
Clean the tub.
Rinse the walls and tub.


Clean the toilet with brush.
Spray the seat, lid and base.
Wipe clean.

Remove stuff from sink area.
Fill sink with water, get sponge, add Mrs. Meyers or Citre Solve to water and sponge and clean way.
Rinse.
Wipe clean with paper towel.

Spray glass shelf and mirror and door with windex cleaner like stuff. Clean. Vaccuum. Mop. 30 minutes. Done. Sparkly!

Ok sounds pretty similar to what I've been doing... only I think it takes me like an hour to clean my small bathroom.

Re: Bathroom cleaning?

I use a homemade green cleaner that has baking soda, vinegar, Dr. Bronner's soap and Borax. No harsh smells and it cleans great. I use Clorox Green Works on the toilet bowl. My only non-green product that I can't give up is Scrubbing Bubbles - I use that on the sink and tub.

Takes me about 30 minutes and it's sparkly!
