Odor Removal in the Toilet: Coarse salt is a common ingredient in cleaning solutions and is excellent at removing offensive smells.

To finish, fill the toilet with hot water from a kettle in the morning.
Drain Cleaner: To unclog a drain without calling a plumber, pour a large amount of salt down the drain, just like you would in a dishwasher. Let it sit, preferably overnight, and then rinse with hot, almost boiling water in the morning.
Using Salt to Remove Stains: A Natural Substitute for Chemicals It might be difficult to remove tough stains from walls, bathtubs, or toilet bowls.

Apply the paste to the spots, let it sit overnight, give the area a light rub in the morning, rinse, and watch the stains go.
Whitening pottery: To easily revitalize pottery, just put some fine or coarse salt in a dish. To get cleaner, brighter surfaces, use a brush and salt to scrape the ceramics.
