Mrs Hinch fans praise £1.25 item that removes toilet limescale

Limescale is a chalky substance that often builds up around toilet bowls and can be very difficult to get rid of.

While many may be tempted to use bleach to vanish this scourge, such attempts are unlikely to clear the limescale.

However, one cleaning fanatic online has found a solution to this issue, adding that they were "gobsmacked" by the results.
