 Toilet bombs… This whole post is really funny for me to write because the bathrooms in a home with three
 boys?! Yeah, let’s just say I know all about bombs in the toilet, pee on the floor, that funky odor that smells
 like a train station urinal, the shreds of toilet paper on the floor. Yep, I know ALL about toilet bombs.

 I’ve seriously thought about tell the boys to just pee outside on a tree, but I have a feeling the neighbors
 won’t like that. But I’ve been desperate. When you live with that gross urine smell in your bathroom, you’ll
 do anything to get rid of it.

 Well, thankfully I found it with these Homemade Toilet Bombs. It’s made with baking soda (helps to gently
 clean and whiten), hydrogen peroxide (helps to naturally sanitize), citric acid (helps to get rid of dirt/grime
 and helps with hard water spots), and essential oils for a naturally clean scent.

                              Try G Suite free for 14 days and
                              schedule meetings easier.                                                    GET STARTED

 My Bathroom Cleaning Routine
 First, spray down the toilet and the tile around the toilet (even the walls and cabinets) with Thieves
 Household Cleaner. I then clean the toilet lid, seat, and pretty much every area except in the toilet bowl
 itself. Thieves Household Cleaner gently cleans and can get rid of the smell without harsh chemicals.

 Then, use these Homemade Toilet Bombs in the bowl itself. It will replace those toxic toilet bowl cleaners
 and clean just as well (if not better).

 Finally, I spray down the toilet and the bathroom with this DIY Air Freshener. Purification essential oil
 blend is one of my favorites in this air freshener recipe, as well as Lemon and Lavender essential oils
 mixed together.

 Okay, are you ready to get that funky odor out of your bathroom? Here’s how you can make
 these Homemade Toilet Bombs.

 Homemade Toilet Bomb Fizzies
 Ingredients
         2 cups baking soda
         1/2 cup citric acid
         2 tbsp hydrogen peroxide

https://dontmesswithmama.com/homemade-toilet-bomb-fizzies-clean-and-deodorize-toilets/                                   2/10

         15 drops essential oils (where to buy), such as Thieves, Purification, Tea Tree, Lemongrass or
         Peppermint (I really love 10 drops Lemongrass + 5 drops Peppermint together or if you’re going for
         simple try 15 drops of Purification)
         Silicone mold or sheet pan and parchment paper

 Instructions
     1. In a large bowl, mix baking soda and citric acid ingredients
         together well.
     2. Very slowly (a few drops at a time) add hydrogen peroxide
         to baking soda/citric acid mixture. Mix well as you
         continue to add hydrogen peroxide. You may notice some
         fizzing – just keep stirring. (Note: Don’t dump the
         hydrogen peroxide all at once as it will activate the baking
         soda and citric acid. It’s important to stir it in very slowly.)
     3. Slowly add essential oils to mixture and keep mixing well
         as you add the essential oils.
     4. Test mixture. You should be able to clump it together to mold. It shouldn’t be too wet or too dry. If it’s
         too dry, add a couple of drops of hydrogen peroxide.
     5. Fill a silicone mold with mixture OR form small balls (about the size of Brussel sprouts) with your
         hands and place on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper (to avoid sticking).
     6. Allow molds to air dry – about 6-8 hours. Then transfer to a glass jar and store in the bathroom.

 How to Use

 These Homemade Toilet Bomb Fizzies are really easy to use. Simply take 1-2 toilet bombs and drop it
 directly into the toilet. The toilet bombs will fizz as the baking soda and citric acid react together in the
 water. Use a toilet brush to gently scrub all surfaces inside the toilet.

        Great idea! I have those exact same molds, too. About how long will they last, do you think?

              They can last for months. I still have some that I made 3 months ago as I made a huge
              batch.

        Hey Tracey,

        I found it helpful to add half a teaspoon Vinegar to the mixture. This helped solve the problem of
        crumbling. Also after trying several different Oils, Lemongrass has been by far my favorite. Lovely
        smell

        I used the smallest (about 1 tsp) scooper and they practically tripled in size before I finished
        scooping! Clearly something went wrong on this end. I loved the smell though.

        Do you know if these are safe for septic tanks?

        Thanks

              The ingredients do dissolve and are non-toxic, so you should be fine. If you’re unsure, look it
              up with the septic tank manufacturer.
