Mrs Hinch fan shares 47p trick to tackling tough toilet limescale - without scrubbing

A cleaning enthusiast has recommended a super simple and affordable way of ridding your toilet bowl of tough-to-tackle limescale, all without the need to reach for your scrubbing brush. The Mrs Hinch fan shared the hack on a household tips Facebook page, suggesting it as a thrifty alternative to pricey shop-bought cleaning products.

Limescale is a hard, chalky substance made up mostly of calcium and magnesium, and can be found in any place where hard water has evaporated, from shower heads to dishwashers to toilets. As well as being unsightly, it can also lead to your pipes getting clogged up, meaning you shouldn't delay in taking action.
