The cleaning pros from @home_reimagined2 on Instagram explained you don’t need to spend a lot of money on cleaning products if you know how to keep mould at bay in the first place.

Their first tip, though no technically one for the bathroom, is one for your washing machine.

“After using your washing machine leave it open to get proper ventilation,” the explained.

Allowing the air to circulate in the drum is one of the most effective ways to prevent mould from forming in the first place.

Another simple trick that will make all the difference is to “always expand your shower curtain to the fullest extent in order to avoid mould in the creases.”

Your shower curtain might not be the first place you look for mould, but if it stays damp for too long it’s bound to harbour some pretty grim bacteria.

You can also give it a good spritz whenever you also clean your bathroom for some extra protection.

As for inside your shower, you’ve got two options according to the keen cleaners.

One is to spray it with hydrogen peroxide to “reduce the build up of the bacteria that causes mould and odours.”

Of course, you should always wear cleaning gloves and make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated if you try this method.

Alternatively, you can use a homemade solution of vinegar and water if you don’t want spend anything.

It will do “pretty much the same thing,” the pros added.

Not only that, but it means you’ll be able to stretch out the time in between cleaning your shower this way.

Fellow cleaning fans loved the tips as well, one wrote: “Yes the hydrogen peroxide sprayed safely after a shower is my favourite to keep the shower mould free!”

A second commented: “‘I’ve done the vinegar in the shower but stopped for some reason, need to get back to that!”
