A professional cleaner has revealed a cheap and easy method to remove yellow stains in your toilet as Britons fight a long and arduous battle to keep their houses clean.
Taking to TikTok to share their wisdom, MaidofGoldCleaning demonstrated how a single versatile item can wipe away stubborn marks from the seat and bowl.
In a helpful video, the content creator showed how easy it is to banish the grime, later revealing the magic behind the hack.
But some are saying that it could leave a bit of damage over time.
“Magic Erasers are a fantastic way to remove stains off your toilet seat,” MaidofGoldCleaning wrote.
Some decided to test out the trick and complimented the advice.
A number of people said that they use the Magic Eraser for all sorts of cleaning jobs around the house, but hadn’t so far had a “light bulb” moment when they realised that it could be used as a loo scrubber.
Amazon sells four Magic Erasers online for £5.75. Sainsbury’s is selling a pack of two from Flash for £3.
Comments came pouring in, reports The Mirror.
One person said: “I do everything with Magic Eraser sponge, why I haven’t thought of doing the toilet seat also, thank you!!”
Another user commented: “This is actually so helpful. My kids have stained one of our toilets and nothing gets it off, not even bleach. I never thought to use a magic eraser.”
Although, a mood of caution emerged, as it is advisable to make sure to have spares.
This is because, since once it’s used on the loo, disinfecting the sponge itself could be tricky.
One user asked: “But now how do you disinfect the Magic Eraser?” This person added that they didn’t want to keep repurchasing items.
Meanwhile, someone else advised that the eraser might leave marks or cause damage over time.
They posted: “Takes off the sealant and makes the plastic porous and worse over time.”
Despite concerns that the “abrasive” magic erasers can wear things down, their ability to clean a toilet bowl remarkably well is not in question.
