When you’re doing some deep cleaning around the house one of the grossest and most tedious areas you have to deal with is hands down the bathroom. As much as you may try to avoid it, at some point in time it must be scrubbed and disinfected, if you want all the surfaces and fixtures to stay looking as fresh and clean as possible.
There are all sorts of specific products that foam and penetrate for toilet’s, showers, sinks and mirrors, but what about tile floors? They seem to slowly build up dirt and gunk over time and nothing ever seems to actually clean the grout.
Mopping is ineffective and if you want it spick and span you basically have to get on your hands and knees and scrub the cracks with a toothbrush.
However, there is a much easier and preventative method for cleaning the grout in between tiles. Simply get a white candle stick and rub it directly onto and along the lines between the tiles. Make sure to firmly rub the wax on and go over the cracks a few times so you don’t miss a spot.
Also, clean the cracks before doing this, since it seals in the grout and whatever may happen to be on it as well, dirt included. The wax is hydrophobic, so when it’s really humid in the bathroom or water drips on the tiles, it repels the moisture and water off of them.
This means that mold and mildew won’t be able to grow and settle in between the cracks, which is what often makes them so hard to clean in the first place. That’s all you need to do to keep the grout from molding, getting clogged up with mildew, or becoming discolored.
Just rub a 50 cent, white colored candle on the cracks! It really works and is the best trick for this exact problem area. Please be kind and share this knowledge with all your friends and family to save them time and energy the next time their bathrooms need cleaning.
