When it comes to cleaning toilets, there is a variety of choices for you to pick one up out of them, but they usually demand some kind of cleaning products, and if you are running out of cleaners, then this method is for you. Grab your shampoo and squirt it inside of your toilet bowl and scrub it normally, or apply some shampoo to a damp sponge and use it to scrub the toilet seat and the top side of the bowl.
2. Unclog a bathtub
A clogged tub is such a frustrating event to deal with because not there are not many effective solutions to solve it and after a few attempts you feel frustrated and end up calling a plumber. But if you use shampoo, the story takes an unexpected turn.
