Miniml Refillable Eco Toilet Cleaner
Miniml Eco-Friendly Toilet Cleaner is sold in a 1 litre bottle with refill bottle. To use, pour around the top of the bowl and allow to run down sides. Let stand for at least 5 to 10 minutes, before flushing. For tough stains, use a sponge or cloth.
- Use unscented products for pregnancy/nursing and near babies or pets. Citrus oils in particular are toxic to pets (even if rinsed and dried, residue could be licked from paws).
- Never mix vinegar or lemon juice with any bleach (causes toxic gas).
Use with SEEP plastic-free cleaning cloths and sponges (they also make fair trade rubber gloves in eco packs. Read how to clean floors naturally (without harming spiders).
What’s wrong with conventional toilet brushes?
Most toilet brushes are made with nylon (plastic). So each time you brush the toilet, you leach microplastics down the pan and out to sea.
Most toilet brushes are also cheap so bristles flay off easily. If you do use one, choose a quality brand like Joseph Joseph (partly silicone and the bristles should stay put).
Toilet brushes are also pretty yucky, and not very hygnenic to use. You’re better off with a plastic-free cloth and rubber gloves and some eco-bathroom cleaner).
Anti-Bac eco bathroom cleaner
Miniml Anti-Bac Bathroom Cleaner again is sold with refill bottles will last you ages! This tackles 99.9% of bacteria, to banish limescale and grim with ease, leaving a cucumber mint scent.
Where to recycle cleaning products
If you have some toxic products that you no longer wish to use, don’t pour them down the sink, as this can harm waterways. You can recycle empty containers with household waste. With bottles still containing product, your council should be able to collect via the hazardous waste department. The fact that this is where they should be taken, is good reason to switch to a more natural brand!
