On the surface, cleaning your floor may seem like a tedious but absolutely simple job. However, when it comes to a more thorough cleaning, including bleaching the grout, the situation is completely different.
Dirt, grease and bacteria collect in the grout, causing it to turn black and unsightly, especially if the tiles are white or light in color.
If keeping your floors clean is also important to you, you’ll be happy to know that it’s possible to bleach grout naturally and without much effort. Below we present the four most effective methods.
Sodium carbonate
In combination with water, it is one of the most effective cleaning products for various types of surfaces.
Pour water and baking soda into a bowl and mix until you get a creamy mixture.
Apply the paste to the grout with a toothbrush and let it work for 5 minutes.
Scrub between the joints with a toothbrush to remove dirt, then rinse off.
Hydrogen peroxide
A product that is part of the first aid kit, but is also very useful for cleaning, disinfecting, and whitewashing grout.
Sprinkle a little baking soda powder on the floor grout.
Add a little hydrogen peroxide and a little liquid dish soap.
Let it soak for 5 minutes, then scrub it well with a toothbrush and rinse it off.
White vinegar
White vinegar can be used in countless ways. In addition to thoroughly cleaning grout, it is also effective against limescale and mold.
