Citric acid

As an alternative to vinegar, you can also use citric acid , which is a godsend for removing mold and even limescale. We remind you, in fact, that it is often used to thoroughly clean household appliances!

Mix 150 grams of citric acid in 1 liter of water, then pour this mixture directly onto the shower tray and onto the corners affected by mold. After that, leave it on for a few minutes and rub with a non-abrasive sponge to remove the dirt: your shower will be like new!

Lemon

After the ingredients already mentioned, how could I not mention lemon, which has a great degreasing action and can be an excellent ally to say goodbye to mold in the shower?

You can use it in two ways. The first is to mix half a glass of lemon juice with 4 tablespoons of baking soda to form a sort of paste, then apply it along the surface of the shower tray. Then scrub with a toothbrush or non-abrasive sponge and rinse.

If you want to focus more on the moldy corners, then we advise you to filter the juice of 1 large lemon , then pour it onto a cloth which you will place directly on the affected areas. Leave it on for about 1 hour and rinse thoroughly with a sponge to remove the last residue: your shower will be cleaner than ever!

Cotton tip

This tip is particularly suitable for shower corners , as it aims to eliminate the black mold stain. To do this, equip yourself with:

- 400 ml of water
- 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide

- 1 tablespoon of fine salt
- 2 tablespoons of baking soda
- Cotton, as needed

Start by dissolving the baking soda and salt in water in a saucepan and bring to a boil, then add the hydrogen peroxide, turn off the heat and wait until the mixture becomes lukewarm so as not to burn yourself.

Next, completely submerge the cotton balls or cotton pads in the solution and, without wringing them out, place them along the area where the mold is present to form a sort of barrier. Leave it on for about an hour , then move the balls and rinse: the black stain from the corners of your shower will be nothing more than a bad memory!
