That’s especially the case if you are strapped for time. So, how can you keep things clean if you only have five minutes to spare?

Step 2: Apply cleaning agents
Time: 1 minute
Drop a few squirts of your favorite toilet cleaner in the bowl. Follow this by spraying the toilet seat, sinks, counters and shower with a cleaner.
There are many bathroom cleaning hacks out there, each with a suggested cleaner. But generally, you want a formula that contains vinegar.
That’s because vinegar is a powerful acetic acid that can remove dirt, grease, mineral deposits, grime and (most importantly) bacteria.
Step 3: Scrub the toilet bowl
Time: 30 seconds
With your toilet brush, give the bowl a quick scrub. Make your scrubbing motions strong enough to get all the dirt and germs.
Rest the brush between the toilet seat and bowl, so that the seat holds it in place as it drips water into the bowl. Hence you won’t transfer toilet water into the brush holder.
Step 4: Clean the surfaces
Time: 2 minutes
The fourth step is all about cleaning the surfaces you sprayed in step 2. Use paper towels or a microfiber cloth to wipe them down.
Start with the mirror and work your way down to the countertops and sink. Finish with a quick wipe down of shower surfaces, toilet seat and toilet tank. These will certainly be your busiest two minutes of the five, but it’s possible to get all the surfaces properly clean within that time.
Step 5: Check the floor
Time: 1 minute
With clean bathroom sinks, surfaces and toilet, you can now shift attention to the floor. If it’s clean, then you are good to go. However, chances are you will need to wipe up dirt spots and disinfect the floor.
Many people often wonder, can you clean bathroom tiles with bleach? The answer is yes. In fact, bleach does an excellent job at killing germs, eliminating odors and brightening surfaces. Therefore, use it to quickly wipe up the floor.
And that’s how to clean your bathroom in 5 minutes or less.
