Want a cleaner, fresher toilet without harsh chemicals? Grab the salt shaker. Salt’s coarse crystals act like a gentle scouring agent in the bowl: they help loosen grime, encourage toilet paper to break down more easily, and naturally absorb moisture and odors.

How to use it Pour about 1 cup of coarse salt (rock, kosher, or sea salt) into the bowl. Let it sit—overnight is ideal so the crystals can work. Scrub with a toilet brush. Flush. Done. Do this every few…

I wanted to believe him. But the stories never quite fit. The truth arrived…
