The bathroom is truly one of the grossest areas in your home. With these tips and tricks, you can combat dangerous germs and microbes lingering on your bathroom surfaces.

How to Really Deep Clean Your Bathroom

1. Tackle Grout. More than likely, your bathroom is tiled. Messy, grimy grout can make your bathroom look dirty (even after you’ve cleaned it). Not only that, but it is a breeding ground for bacteria. Dip a toothbrush in bleach and scrub. Make sure to rinse well!

2. Disinfect your sink. The faucet is one of the most bacteria ridden places of your bathroom, and it makes sense! Use an antibacterial wipe to kill bacteria. To clean your sink even further, pour vinegar and baking soda down the drain. Use floss (yes, floss) to clean that difficult area where the base of the faucet meets the sink.

3. Clean your hand towels. Now, this sounds obvious, but it is commonly looked over. Wash them in the sanitizing setting, or wash with bleach. Definitely make sure to clean your towel bar too!

4. Scrub your fan. I would have never thought this would be a place where mold and mildew grew, but I now realize that it is a perfect place for such things to grow! Use a vacuum to get rid of dust and gunk. Wipe with a damp cloth. Also make sure to run the fan for 30 minutes after a shower!
