Cleaning the toilet is no one’s favorite chore, but my grandpa’s simple trick makes it quick, natural, and nearly effortless. While most people only
scrub the bowl, the toilet tank collects hidden buildup—grime, rust, and bacteria—that can cause weak flushes, bad odors, and corrosion over time.
Why the Tank Matters
Ignoring the tank can lead to:
Poor flushing: Mineral deposits clog parts.
Odors and mold: Moist, enclosed spaces breed bacteria.
