We all appreciate a pristine bathroom, but the effort to get it that way is something most of us would rather avoid. It’s often the messiest room in the house, filled with nooks and crannies that collect dust and grime.

The brush is useful on its own for light cleanings, but if the area behind your toilet needs some extra love, reach for a roll of paper towels. Wrap a sheet of paper towel around the bristles and spray it with your go-to cleaner before sliding the brush behind the toilet base and tank. This method picks up any dust or grime that may have been lurking in those overlooked areas. When you’re done, simply toss the paper towel. The extra layer also keeps your brush in good shape and ready for more cleanings to come.

One Pack, Endless Cleaning Uses

Since these narrow scrub brushes typically come in a multipack, you can use them for different cleaning tasks without worrying about cross-contamination. Designate one specifically for the toilet area and another for scrubbing around faucets and sink drains. The remaining brushes are ideal for cleaning window and sliding door tracks, the dryer’s lint trap compartment, and the rubber gasket around your dishwasher.
