Aussie mum’s brilliant toilet cleaning hack goes viral

This product isn’t meant for cleaning, but an entire online community is raving about its magic power to keep your loo looking brand new.

A cheap generic toiletry is being praised online for its special ability to transform your toilet.

Mums in the Facebook cleaning group Mums Who Clean are raving about good ‘ole shaving cream, which you can pick up for as little as $2.30 from Woolworths.

As Aussie mum shared the hack, saying she loves that she can easily rely on it to keep her toilet area looking fresh and odour-free.

And the best part: no scrubbing required!

Sharing some before and after pics of her gleaming toilets, one mum found it works wonders for transforming the smelliest area of the house (where accidents often happen).

All you have to do is apply a thick coat of foam on everything that needs a good clean – toilet seat, floors, fixtures, you name it!

Then, leave it all to soak for up to 30 minutes and let the shaving foam do all the hard work for you.

When half an hour has passed, feel free to wipe it all off with a mop and hot water.

Member Nadi gave it a shot and reported back saying, “Thanks ladies! Left it for 1.5 hours and the bathroom smells amazing right now!

“Usually It still smells musty after a scrub so it’s definitely worked. All shiny and clean. And smells amazing in here. For now …”

While the hack had most mums raving, some warned against leaving the foam on too long as it would be harder to remove once hardened.

“Definitely works … it get rid of the urine smell and marks on the tile.....just don’t let it dry … I do mine every week,” one wrote.

“I’ve done this. Leaves it smelling great. Did a good job on the grout around it too,” another added.

“The only thing that removes wee smell. It’s a must for mums with boys!!” commented a third member.
