You can use a spoonful of the lemon paste to clean with a washcloth.\n</p><p>If your toilet is next to a bathtub with a shower curtain, toss the shower curtain in the washer and add 1\/2 cup of white vinegar to the final rinse cycle to freshen that up as well. After giving everything a good scrub you should notice a difference in the smell already. It\u2019s amazing to me how far and WHERE there seems to be urine in the bathroom\u2026.leave no wall unscrubbed or tile unwashed.\n</p><p>After 15 minutes, flush the toilet to wash out the water from the tank. Flush 2-3 times, then add in another 1\/2 cup of vinegar and allow to sit while you are finishing up the cleaning process. If there is visible build-up along the tank walls you\u2019ll need to scrub down the tank\u2026.but please make sure to wear a pair of gloves!\n</p><h4>Scrub with Vinegar and You\u2019re Done!\n</h4><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-10958 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/07%5C/get-rid-of-the-urine-smell-5.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"940\"' height='\"627\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/get-rid-of-the-urine-smell-5.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>Next, grab a toothbrush, pour vinegar over it, then scrub at the areas where the baking soda &amp; lemon paste is around the toilet. Scrub all areas well with the toothbrush, then pour small amounts of the vinegar over the paste and wipe away with a washcloth. If you see a residue build up along the water line in the toilet bowl, a pumice stone is a great way to scrub it off. I use this one and feel like it is very effective.\n</p><p>Flush the toilet another 2-3 times to once again flush out the vinegar in the tank.\n</p><h4>Goodbye Urine Smell!\n</h4><p>Once all of those steps are done, you will not only have a sparkling clean toilet, but the bathroom will be smelling MUCH better too!\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"</p><p>No matter how much you scrub, the urine smell may go away for a few hours but then return by the end of the day.
