 When it comes to keeping the bathroom not only smelling clean, but actually really clean drastic times call for drastic measures. Everyone has times when visiting the bathroom can fill you with dread. It may be you have littlies toilet training or illness in the house or a dozen other reasons. Bathrooms are a thriving bacteria factory.
Deodorize and kill all those unwanted germs with some MOO toilet bombs. You will need: 1/3 cup bicarbonate soda 1/2 cup citric acid 30 drops of lavender, peppermint and lemon essential oils Water A tray to use as a mould - a flexible ice cube tray is good for this Step 1. Mix the bicarb soda and citric acid together and add the oils (if the mixture is not damp add a little water to the mixture). Step 2. Press the mixture into a mould (an ice cube tray is ideal) and leave to set for around 6 – 8 hours until they are dry. Once set, they are ready to use. Drop one or two in the toilet last thing at night, let them fizz and bubble and work their wonder overnight. In the morning just flush for a sparkling toilet.

I'm just questioning the amount of bi-carb? I have just made bulk amounts, for Xmas gifts. The recipe I used was: 1 & 1/3 cups bi-carb, 1/2 cup citric acid and then the essential oils (I used cheap oils bought in Bali). Great gift idea - everyone likes a clean loo.

No, my recipe is the way I've been making them for about 10 years and is what I put on the blog for MOO Month back in 2014.

Thanks Cath - for clarifying. What you say makes sense. I'll give your recipe a go next time.

30 drops in total - any combination of those essential oils, or if you prefer just a single scent, then 30 drops of a single oil.

Just wondering how many this recipe makes, in say a normal ice cube tray?

Hello Cath, can I put these into the cistern or only the toilet bowl?

Yes, if you want to. They will dissolve and be washed out with the next flush. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
