how to clean toilet with bleach Page 8

Yes, you can clean a toilet with bleach—just do it like you value your lungs. Crack a window, pull on gloves, flush first, then pour household bleach around the bowl rim and let it sit 5–10 minutes (do not add anything else). Scrub thoroughly with a toilet brush, including under the rim, and flush twice for good measure. For the seat, lid, and exterior, wash with mild detergent first; if you really must disinfect, wipe with a diluted bleach solution as directed on the label, then rinse with cold water and dry. Never mix bleach with ammonia, vinegar, acids, or any other cleaner, and keep pets and kids well away until everything’s rinsed and aired.
