However, garlic does not have to be only a great natural disinfectant, it also works great for removing unpleasant dirt and especially brown and yellowish stains that can form on the toilet. If you prefer natural cleaning products, the following tip will come in handy. You simply make an infusion of garlic and tea, which you then use to clean the aforementioned stains. You prepare the infusion from half a liter of water, which you bring to a boil. You then add one bag of black tea and at least three or four cloves of garlic to the boiling water, which you crush with a knife beforehand.

First let the decoction cool to room temperature and then pour it into the toilet bowl.

The solution should remove the stains completely on its own, but if any stains still remain, you can repeat the process. It is ideal to repeat this procedure a few times a week.
