If the grouting in your bathroom is covered in mould, but you don’t want to use chemical sprays on it, douse in vodka instead.
Leave to soak for a good 15 minutes and then scrub off – you should be left mould-free.

Some loo cleaners can damage permanently.
And if it gets colour spots or the wood becomes bleached, there’s no easy remedy.
Clean the seat with plain water and a microfibre cloth (pop in the washing machine afterwards).

You might think an enamel bath would withstand any amount of elbow grease, but you’d be wrong – the shiny surface is actually very delicate and you should clean only with either a microfibre cloth or a product that bears the logo of the Vitreous Enamel Association (Cif, for example, carries the mark).
If you scrub too hard, you’ll remove the surface and thereafter it takes on stains. And re-enamelling a bath is costly.

If your electric toothbrush starts whimpering instead of buzzing, get an emery board and rub the top off and all around the spindle – chances are that’ll clear the blockage and sort it!

If you don’t have an extractor fan, try to open the window as much as possible after a shower or bath for a good airflow.
If you’re having a bath, run the cold tap first, followed by the hot, which will reduce steam (safer, too, if children are around).
For a mouldy shower curtain, machine-wash on a wool cycle with a capful of bleach added to the drawer; rehang straight from the machine.

There’s no need to resort to expensive, strong products to attack limescale.
Much better to stick to homemade remedies, which are just as effective, and a lot cheaper.
If your chrome showerhead is caked with scale, unscrew it, and steep overnight in a bowl containing half clear vinegar and half warm water. In the morning the scale will flake off and the head will only need a little rub with a cloth. Note: don’t use on special metal finishes, as vinegar can damage.
For scale in an enamel bath or porcelain sink, dampen a pumice stone and rub away at the mark. Don’t worry about scratching: the pumice is hard enough to deal with the scale but soft enough not to damage the surfaces
