2 tips for removing orange stains from toilets and bathtubs

Lemon juice and water

A simple and safe alternative to bleach can be made by mixing lemon juice with warm water. Squeeze lemons into a spray bottle and apply to stains, making sure to cover all of them.

Leave the lemon juice to act for 10 minutes, then scrub well with a sponge or toothbrush and rinse thoroughly with warm water. Repeat if necessary.

Baking soda and white vinegar

When these two ingredients are mixed, they generate a chemical reaction which is also one of the most effective products for cleaning, disinfecting and degreasing surfaces.

Mix two parts white vinegar with one part water and pour into a spray bottle, then spray on orange stains.

Wait about 15 minutes, then sprinkle with baking soda and wait for the chemical reaction to finish. Leave on for at least an hour before scrubbing with a sponge and rinsing. If necessary, repeat more than once.

How to prevent orange spots

Remember to dry the surfaces of the shower or tub immediately after use. Bacteria thrive in moist environments.

There are filters on the market that can block most of the iron and magnesium present in water. By installing it at home you can prevent annoying orange stains from forming
