11 Green & Inexpensive DIY Solutions for Cleaning Your Toilet

In addition to unclogging your toilet using common household items, you can also clean and disinfect your toilet for cheap without ever having to use expensive and chemically-toxic toilet cleaners ever again.

To prevent toilet rings from ever forming in your toilet bowl, periodically add a cup or two of distilled white vinegar into the bowl, let it sit for a few hours, and then flush. To remove stubborn toilet rings after they've already formed, try a more potent method by adding baking soda to the vinegar in the toilet bowl and scrub with a toilet brush before flushing.

Other cheap methods for cleaning your toilet include a can of Coke, Kool-Aid powder, rubbing alcohol, borax, and more.

To get rid of a rust stain, use a pumice stone. Be sure to thoroughly soak the pumice stone in warm water before using so that the pumice doesn't scratch the porcelain surface.
