We've been giving both kids a bath together, and dang... it feels like the bath tub is getting dirtier more than twice as fast! We're working on a plan to put the tub on a weekly scrubdown schedule...
How often do you scrub your bath tub?
-
Weekly! And I clean the jets in our big tub every other week.
-
ummm....not often enough. Probably just once a month. But it's only DH and I and we only take showers.
-
Weekly, at least! I try to do it after DS has a bath, I still use his infant tub, and he's 2.5 years old!
-
I scrub it every other week. It has jets so I fill it up with water and bleach and turn them on for ten minutes. Then I wipe it down as scrub any dirty spots off.
-
My husband and I have separate bathrooms and I used to scrub the tubs every other week. Lately he has been using mine to 'change it up' because he's weird and I feel like I have to clean it every week at least! It's amazing what a difference it makes for one person using a tub vs. two.
-
I try to do it weekly, but my tub cleaner is making me sick to my stomach, so I need to find a new one.
-
Weekly, but it is by far my least favorite chore (combined with the shower). We use natural cleaners and that is the one place where I can never seem to get them to work well enough! So much scrubbing!
-
We do ours usually once a week. We both use the guest bath/shower because it's larger, and it gets grungy pretty fast!
-
Um.. hardly ever. It's just the two of us and we take showers, and I loath cleaning the tub and shower, so it's not nearly as often as we should. We'll have to when LO gets here since while a less than spotless tub is fine for us, I'm not putting the baby in a dirty tub.
We just got some greener cleaners since I was uncomfortable breathing in all those bleachy chemicals while pregnant. We'll see how well they work!
-
Ugh, not as often as I should! Every 3 weeks? We use Scrubbing Bubbles Foam Spray (one of the few chemical cleaners I will never give up) and everything just wipes off. We have hard water, and the soap scum gets pretty gross!
-
Never? But my cleaning lady is scrubbing it today
-
I guess like every other week. We have 2 bathrooms and mostly DH uses the "shower" one, and I take baths in the "bath" one. So it's just me in there. I used a lot of essential oils in there last time so I need to scrub before I use it again!
-
not enough!
-
same as some PPs, it was only DH and I showering so I would wipe it down with magic erasers every other week or so.. but we also have hard water, so it takes SERIOUS scrubbing to get the scum off the bottom. or maybe it's just dirt..idk. it's awful.
I use an inflatable tub for the baby because I just can't keep up with it. I'm going to have to figure out a system soon, when she outgrows the inflatable tub!
-
Uhm, once a month when the cleaning lady comes... I'm terrible.
-
I do every week now, used to be every other week but now E takes baths in the big tub so I like it to be spotless.
-
Whenever the maid comes, so... every two weeks.
-
Eeek. Not often enough. There's usually a unmentioned standoff between DH & I to see who'll break down & do it.
-
Uhm... not nearly often enough.
-
Every week. When I was growing up, my mum had a rule tha the last person to use the tub had to wash it out. Every.Single.Day. Ugh.
-
Another not enougher here! We all rake showers though so it's not too bad! (P takes a bath in her tub & I clean when needed)
-
Not very much, it's my least favorite chore
It never seems to be that dirty though.
-
My DH scrubs is every weekend. I hate cleaning the bathroom so he does that chore (thank goodness!)
-
Cleaning lady does it every other week.
-
Not often enough. We do it (I mean cleaning person) biweekly.
-
Once a week for our bath. We clean our son's bath after we bathe him.
-
Once a week unless we are away for the weekend, then I'll do it the following week. DH and I clean together every Sunday and my job is the bathroom (we only have one) so I take two minutes to scrub it. I don't anticipate this lasting much longer though as my belly continues to grow - our tub is really tall and deep but narrow and the angle is getting more and more challenging for me since I'm so short.
I also use 'green' cleaners and I have yet to find one that is really good with soap scum and mold. I find that once a month I have to bust out the 409 for the soap scum and clorox spray on the shower curtain.
-
Uhhh, never? It's just the two of us and we take showers. Bathroom needs to be updated anyways, so if it gets too gross, it'll be a good excuse to get started on those updates!
-
At least once a month.. aka whenever we have overnight guests!! haha. DH uses our master bath and I use the spare bathroom.. I don't clean the master because it skeeves me out!! He has to do that one
