Summer Stay-Clean Bathroom Tips

Anni Sofferet

Keeping your bathroom clean in summer isn't easy. With the higher humidity, mildew seems to grew in your shower as fast as weeds in your garden. Mirrors become gunky in a matter of days and toilets develop their own eco-system in less than a week. To help free up your time for better things, here are a few summer stay-clean bathroom tips with product recommendations for getting the job done quick and easy.

Automatic shower cleaner

From Scrubbing Bubbles comes a product called Automatic Shower Cleaner, which you simply spray on all your shower surfaces and leave on for five to ten minutes. The cleaner will slowly drip down the wall of your shower, but you can wash it clean with water. This summer stay-clean bathroom tip will keep your shower looking clean without scrubbing or hard work on your part.

Super shine surfaces

From Windex Comes a product called the Original Glass Wipes which makes cleaning surfaces super easy. Use the wipes on glass, granite, UV-protected windows, tile, plastic, vinyl and any other surface you wish to give a streak-free shine to. This summer stay-clean bathroom tip is especially useful on bathroom mirrors, as it will help reduce the gunk that collects on them in summer, due to rising humidity.

Easy lasting toilet cleaner

Yet another great product from Scrubbing Bubbles is the Fresh Brush 2-in-1, invented to make toilet cleaning easy and lasting. You'll need to invest in a Starter Kit, which includes a handle, storage hook and two Max pads which clean even tough stains like hard water, lime scale and rust. For a summer stay-clean bathroom tip that skips the need for a toilet brush altogether, check out the Fresh Brush Flushables, which work for days to loosen and clear away daily soils and stains.

Dust free everything

For your towel cabinets, bathroom lights and everything else, check out Duster Plus from Pledge. The fluffy, 360 degree duster fits virtually everywhere and is soft on every type of surface. It's ideal for your bathroom lights which get too hot for dusting with simple clothes. And it will also make dusting behind your toilet a breeze. Use this summer stay-clean bathroom tip every two weeks for a dust free environment.

Disinfect everything

In our warm bathrooms, bacteria have a field day. From Lysol come disinfectant sprays for easy use everywhere in our bathrooms. Disinfect your showerhead, toilet bowl and tank, sink, bathtubs and trash cans.

Stainless steel faucet sparkle

To wipe your stainless steel faucets or sinks in a flash, check out Scotch Brite's Stainless Steel Cleaner, a pre-moistened pad that will leave your surfaces looking streak free and beautiful. This summer stay-clean bathroom tip works best if you keep your Scotch Brite pad nearby for quick wiping when needed.
