Thanks to its abrasive action, salt helps descale surfaces and remove yellow stains embedded in the bottom of the toilet bowl and shower walls. In addition to being a natural stain remover, salt also helps eliminate bad odors and unclog toilet pipes. Moreover, the toilet can easily become clogged if you throw tampons or wipes into the bowl. This is why only natural waste and toilet paper should end up in the toilet bowl. The rest should be thrown in the trash.
If your toilet is clogged and smells bad, use salt. To do this, simply pour a glass of salt into the bowl, leave it to act for a few minutes and flush.
To maintain your toilet and prevent it from getting clogged, once a month, pour a tablespoon of salt into the bowl with boiling water. Leave it on for 15 minutes and flush the toilet. By the way, boiling water is also effective in unclogging the toilet pipe, provided that the blockage is not very large. You can pour a bucket of boiling water into the bowl, or heat half a liter of white vinegar with a liter of water to optimize the result. Pour your mixture into the bowl and leave to act for 30 minutes.
Note that you can use salt even to unclog pipes in the kitchen sink or bathroom sinks.
