One time my husband caught me cleaning my dust pan and he said "you really are crazy". I said you have to take care of the things that take care of you ☺

We use biodegradable sponges and use them until they're discolored, and then chuck them in the compost. We started only buying cleaning tools that are biodegradable. Throwing away foam sponges every few weeks, a plastic toilet brush, a plastic toothbrush - all of these things add up and will literally never go away.

I put on some clean my space for 3 mins next thing I know I'm 6 hours into deep cleaning my house 🤣🤣🤣 she motivates me to clean and once I start I get obsessive and just want everything else clean... Its not a bad thing my house needed it because I get lazy but let me tell you I LOVE this channel it motivates you I swear... 😃

Thank you for putting time stamps in your description box . It’s really helpful

I clean my cleaning products, including the toilet bowl brushes. Prefer to reduce how much plastic I buy, use and dispose of.

CMS POLL: Do you CLEAN your toilet brush, or do you REPLACE it?

[melrose]

If you clean your vacuum, are you...a vacuum cleaner? 🤔


Oof thank you ma’am. 🙏🏻

[chickadeeacres]

Oh gosh yes, I wash and maintain anything that’s washable. Even the shopvac and toilet brush. Nothing goes to landfill if I can help it. You could do an episode on personal care product cleaning, like make up btushes and sponges, hair brushes, combs, curling irons and hair dryers etc...

Question about cleaning toilet brushes in a bucket. I’d like to but it grosses me out thinking about the bucket ever being used for anything other than toilet brushes. Do all of you who do the bucket method have a separate bucket designated for only cleaning toilet brushes??

I clean our toilet twice a week I believe the brush stays clean enough like that because of the toilet bowl cleaner and I rinse it while flushing the cleaner out then while i leave it to dry between the seat and toilet bowl i spray it with dissenfectant and wipe down the handle of the brush. Everytime the toilet brush bowl looks dirty i spray it with an all purpose cleaner then wipe with a paper towel, getting every part bottum and inside included. Then dissenfect that as well. But since I wouldn't touch my brush part I think this is a great idea I'll have to try it thank you!

I have a silikone toilet cleaner, absolutely love it, so much better than the plastic brush 🙂

[craigbryan]

I love how you tell us without all the fluff super informative thankyou

[jasonstokes]

I chose to replace my toilet brushes with silicone brushes that I got off Amazon. Silicon won't stain like the nylon brushes so from now on I should just be able to clean them instead of replacing them.

I have never used a sponge for dishes. I use a dishcloth, I swap out for a clean one every day, I let it dry over night and then put it in a container under my sink, at the end of the week I boil all of my dishcloths for 20 minutes. Once they've cooled off I pour out the water and add the dishcloths to my laundry. My dishcloths almost never sour and always come out smelling fresh. If I ever do have a sour dishcloth I just add some baking soda to the boiling water, problem solved.

I clean my toilet brush. I have four bathrooms so I have my hands full. I have taken vases that I have gotten with flower arrangements and I put a mixture of Pine-Sol and hot water and have the toilet brush in that so that it kills bacteria when it is in it's spot waiting to be used. Each time I clean the bathroom which is about weekly I change the water and Pine-Sol. I clean the toilet brush as well

Great tip for vacuum maintenance! Own a Miele vacuum and change the bag, filters, and clean the roller brush! Great tips! 👍

[lynnettawilliams]

Love watching you're ideas they work well

[singit]

Woohoo! That sponge tip was 'handy'! 😉👍

[tuva]

How do I clean the bucket used to clean the toilet brush? Should I have a bucket dedicated to that brush only?
