How often do you launder your bathroom mats?
How do you pick up hair off the floor?
Do you scrub grooves and rims and edges around faucets or just spray randomly and wipe?
Do you disinfect separately or just do with the cleaner?
If you have shower curtains, how do you prevent mold/mildew on them?
Air fresheners?

Yes, fabric curtains are better, but what about the liners. I know they have mildew protectant ones. I just answered.

How often do you launder your bathroom mats?
Once a week. I have 2 sets, when washing one, replace with other. They r white so i can get a way with adding a little bleach to the wash.

How do you pick up hair off the floor?
Every so often with some tissue if its noticable, and weekly with the mop.

Do you scrub grooves and rims and edges around faucets or just spray randomly and wipe?
Edges n behind taps.

Do you disinfect separately or just do with the cleaner?
Mix thin bleach, washing up liquid with hot water in a spray bottle, this cleans and disinfects everything, from floor to tub.

If you have shower curtains, how do you prevent mold/mildew on them?
Air fresheners?
In the interest of hygiene, i get cheap white shower curtain and replace when necessary. Treat the cheap ones like disposables.


End of interview...

We have a pretty old house with poor ventilation in the bathroom so its a breeding ground for mold. I used to use bleach and burning hot water and even then could not get all the mold in the grout, between the tiles. Then my mom convinced me to try Tilex bathroom mold and mildew remover. My GOODness that stuff works like a charm! You spray it on and wait like 10 minutes and then rinse it away. It leaves the tiles and grout sparkly clean.

We don't have bathroom mats - my dad doesn't like the idea.

But, yes, pick up hair with the tissue anytime you see them, but weekly mops also do the job.

Use cleaner with bleach to clean - no separate disinfectant.

Use Ajax bleach powder to wipe shower curtain with whenever cleaning bathroom.

Always scrub everything

I need to try Tilex - because my hands hurt scrubing all those tiles.

How often do you launder your bathroom mats?
Not everyweek like RupayHalwa -oops!
But I do vaccum and frebreeze them regularly

How do you pick up hair off the floor?
Broom and mop everyweek
If I ever see hair on the floor I take a kitchen paper towel and wipe the floor

Do you scrub grooves and rims and edges around faucets or just spray randomly and wipe?
Scrub, spray & wipe -all of the above

Do you disinfect separately or just do with the cleaner?
Do both seperately

If you have shower curtains, how do you prevent mold/mildew on them?
No curtains, just a glass door. I wipe it with Windex

Air fresheners?
Frebreeze




Here's another one:

and it peferably should be stainless steel or aluminium .. finish can be chrome or brushed alumnium type finish.

a proper high quality, decent capcity lota with a good flow rate is very important.

rebel against mediocrity, rebel against fob-pana, throw away those plastic watering cans you ppl have sawed the spout down..tsk tsk..

there is only one realistic option in this list, the first one


2) it does not provide targeting capabilities for surgical strikes

3) reminds me of jummah bazaar

4) better suited to pour lassi out off
