These are all the things you can do with it!
Useful
- Clean your blowdryer: If you blow-dry your hair on a regular basis, quite a lot of dust will gather behind the grill. This can cause the dryer to be less powerful and it can actually be a fire hazard. The solution: clean the grill with a toothbrush!

- Seams in your bathroom floor: The most stubborn filth usually gets stuck in the seams of your bathroom floor and this can be really difficult to clean with sponge. Dip your brush into a bit of bleach and use it to scrub the floor with. Success guaranteed!
- Taps: The taps in your bathroom and kitchen can develop limescale pretty quickly. It can be difficult to clean, but if you use your trusty brush it’ll be done in jiffy
- Keyboard: A lot of dust, food scraps and hairs gather between the keys of your keyboard. Clean it in no time with your toothbrush!
- Rubbers of your fridge: This is a chore a lot of people forget about, but it is important. In between the rubbers bacteria can breed, but mold can also grow there.
