Toilet Bomb Recipe Instructions

Just follow this simple process to make the easiest way to clean your toilet tank. Just think – you’ll soon have cleaner toilets with less work!

Step 1

Add the dry ingredients for your toilet bomb tabs (baking soda and corn starch) to the resealable bag. Seal the bag, then knead to combine the ingredients and remove any lumps.

Step 2

Spray a few drops of water or hydrogen peroxide into the bag, then knead again. The mixture will fizz a little.

Repeat this process until the mixture stays clumped together when you squeeze the bag.

Step 3

Add the essential oils and knead everything together again. You can use any essential oils you prefer, but tea tree, eucalyptus, and lemon are great options for their cleaning and freshening properties.

Step 4

If the mixture is too dry, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of water to help it stick together.

Step 5

Use a spoon to add the mixture to your mold cavities.

Step 6

Allow the toilet bowl bombs to dry for at least 4-6 hours or overnight until they are completely dry and hard.

Step 7

Once the toilet bombs are dry, gently pop them out of the molds and store them in an airtight container until ready to use.

Storing and Using Easy Toilet Bombs

Storing Them

Once you have made your toilet bombs, it’s important to store them properly to keep them fresh and effective.

You can store them in an airtight container or a glass jar with a lid to help prevent moisture from getting in and activating the citric acid prematurely.

Pro Tip: Make sure to label your container with the date you made the toilet bombs and the scent you used. This will help you keep track of how long they have been stored and which scent you prefer.

Using Your Fizzy Toilet Bombs

To use your new powerful toilet bowl cleaner, simply drop one fizzy tablet into the toilet bowl and let it fizz and dissolve. Then use a brush to scrub before flushing to keep your toilet looking its best.

You can use them once a week or as needed to keep your toilet fresh and clean.

It’s important to note that while toilet bombs are a great way to keep your toilet clean and fresh, they should not be used as a replacement for regular toilet cleaning.

Make sure to clean your toilet bowl and tank regularly to prevent buildup and keep your toilet in good condition.
