  • 🌠🌠🌠 PeRFeCT FoR MY DiY ToiLeT CLeaNiNG BoMBS 🌠🌠🌠
Size: 5 Pound
This 5-pound bad of 100% pure, food-grade, non-GMO citric acid is exactly what I needed for my homemade toilet cleaning bombs. The quality is excellent—fine, clean, and easy to work with. I use it regularly and it never clumps or disappoints. Here’s my favorite recipe that I use to make my toilet cleaning bombs:: 1 1/4 c. baking soda 1/4 c. citric acid 1 T. water (added slowly) 25 drops orange/lemon/lavendar/peppermint essential oil 2 T. hydrogen peroxide (optional, but I add it for extra cleaning power) 1. I mix the baking soda and the citric together in a bowl. 2. In a separate bowl, I combine weather, essential oil and hydrogen peroxide. 3. I slowly add the wet mix to the dry mix stirring it constantly while I’m pouring it so it mixes well. 4. Once it starts to feel like wet sand, press it into the molds. 5. Allow it to mold and dry for 8-12 hours. 6. Store them in an airtight container. Whenever you want to use it in your toilet bowl, you drop it into the bowl itself and allow it to fizz. If you need to scrub with a brush, you can. I don’t because I use them often enough so nothing builds up. These leave the bathroom smelling so fresh and so clean! ⚠️⚠️⚠️ WARNING:: DO NOT mix this with any other cleaning products!! I ONLY use these solo by themselves!!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️ So, this citric acid is like a staaple in my home as I use it often in my DIY cleaning routine. Thus, I highly, highly recommend this for anyone making bath or toilet bombs. ... show more

  • It Cleans Toilets
Size: 32 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm a senior lady who's been around a long time and I had never heard of citric acid much less that it works really well to clean the toilet. We live in a rural area and have well water that - over time - leaves an ugly ring in the toilet bowl. I read the directions on the package and poured some in the bowl all around the sides and then left it for about an hour. Then I took the brush and worked it around, then flushed. What I had was a really clean bowl! Try it!!! ... show more

  • Fantastic for mixing into a chelation solution
Size: 32 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I used this Milliard Citric Acid Powder, mixed with washing soda and a bit of dish soap to make a chelating solution to clean some automotive parts I had difficulty finding replacements for. It worked fantastic and did everything I needed it to do, and at a pretty good price for the quantity. I've heard this can be used for many other cleaning solutions, so I would definitely give it a try! Need to get some more myself! ... show more

  • Buy it!

Had some repairs done on the dishwasher and was describing issues we were having and the repair man suggested this to clean the dishwasher. It looks brand new and smells great, we no longer have a fatty film after one wash with it. And did research, you can use it for so much more.

  • Here’s what happened…
Size: 32 Ounce (Pack of 1)
In search of a solution to my nasty SCRUD washing machine deposits, I viewed/read about the benefits and abilities of citric acid as a cleaner. [OxiClean + C.A.powder. (“Ben’s Appliances and Junk” on YouTube). Thanks, Ben!] I immediately ordered the 2# bag and began searching Google for the various things that it can clean and the ‘recipes’ to do so. Here’s what I’ve found thus far… Basic cleaning solution: 1 Tbsp. citric acid / 1 Cup of hot water (or) 1/4 Cup citric acid / gallon of hot water. Although, that differs from Milliard’s website and THEIR official recipe guide: https://www.milliardbrands.com/pages/citric-acid-user-guide-1 DISCLAIMER: I did not look for/find this information until AFTER my test cleanings (described below). I just began culling from a lot of different online sites. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<—————————>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> When it arrived, I began with the lime scale ring in my toilet’s bowl: I dumped 3 Tbsp. of powder into the bowl, dissolved it using the toilet brush, and waited 30 minutes. Well, as water in toilets finds its own level (due to gravity, traps, vents, etc.), the cleaning solution remained just UNDER the ring I was intending to remove. How is that going to work if the liquid is not even soaking the area I’m trying to clean? I added more water to the bowl until the level was back above the ring and the water line self-leveled again — to below the targeted area. I placed a bottle of water in the bowl, hoping the displacement would raise the cleaning solution enough — for long enough — to penetrate the stubborn ring and loosen the scale. Yet again, the water leveled-out to just under the ring. I give up! [Not knocking the Citric Acid at all…I’m sure it would do a fantastic job on bowl or tank stains that are UNDER the water line.] Ok, we’ll give this stuff another chance on the stubborn toilet ring — in a DRY bowl this time… I prepared the solution (4T/4C), turned off the water supply, flushed, and bailed as much water out of the bowl as possible. (Water level was 4-5” below the disgusting ring). I GENEROUSLY sprayed the bowl with the solution. I waited an hour and then saturated it again. Another hour elapsed and I returned to check the progress. Still a dried, rusty/yellow-colored ring remained. I scrubbed with the toilet brush…no change. I used a magic eraser dampened with the solution…not budging. And, not only does this stuff not work for me, it did NOT make the toilet smell any better, either! (NOPE!! Sticking to my Clorox T.B. cleaner, thanks.) Supposedly, it can de-gunk toilet TANKS as well: (Although mine were clean and I did NOT do this, I’m forwarding the method I’d found...) Turn off water supply. Flush to empty water from tank. Dump in 1 Cup citric acid powder and pour HOT water into the tank— to the stain line. Stir to dissolve. Let sit for at least an hour. Scrub down the insides a bit. Turn water supply back on. Flush. Let tank fill back up. Scrub again and flush again. Moving on…electric water kettle: As I only use fresh, filtered, dispensed refrigerator water in my kettle, I have never cleaned it. Whatever germs are in there are getting boiled and it’s left open to dry thoroughly after use. Plus, due to its electrical contacts, it cannot be submerged in water. Over many years of using it, a white, dotted limescale film has coated the bottom and pour spout. Not a big deal for me but it looks unsightly. I used 1 Tbsp. powder and 4 1/2 C of water in kettle, stirred to dissolve, let it come to a boil and then sit for 30 minutes. The limescale dots were softened and easily wiped off with a bottle brush. Rinsed out the kettle and it looks new inside! Ok…impressed. AND, no nasty vinegar odor in the house! Shower heads and faucet aerators: In a med/lg glass bowl, I dumped 1 TBSP citric acid and 4.5 Cups of boiling water. I stirred to dissolve, then tossed in my bathroom sinks’ aerators and shower head. I secured the shower head — water spray holes down — in the bowl so it would remain standing in the solution and not roll over on its side. I spooned some of the solution from the bowl into the threaded, upright end until it was full. I set my timer for the recommended 15 minutes… The aerators looked great! I rinsed them thoroughly with clean water and set them aside to dry. As for the shower head, I hadn’t cleaned it in awhile and the stubborn crust was still present after 15 minutes. Back into the bowl it went. I reset the timer for ANOTHER 15 and checked again… Well, with no scrubbing, the pinkish yuck was all gone! Some of the crusty white stuff remained, though. I proceeded to scrub the front of the head with a toothbrush and diligently poked a toothpick and/or paper clip into each of the various-sized spray holes as well. I then bobbed the shower head up and down in the bowl a few times before rinsing it out thoroughly with clean water. Reinstalled all — they work LIKE NEW! (Wonderful shower pressure now.) Patch of lime scale build-up on the dish drainer-side of stainless steel sink: I couldn’t get this one to work. I even gloved-up and tried with just a paste of citric acid on a brush and then on a paper towel…hoping both the chemical reaction and grittiness of the crystals would loosen the build-up — it didn’t budge. (More research required.) I tried again with 3 Tbsp. powder in a slurry mixture. I dabbed it on with a sponge, pressed plastic wrap down to cover the surfaces of application, and waited an hour. I then rubbed the sink with a damp, lightly-abrasive sponge and rinsed. This method DID NOT remove the thick patch. Water spots were still visible on the sides of the sink. The bottom of the sink looked a tad better, though the bottom isn’t really the problem. The next day, I sprayed the sink with the citric acid solution (above), let it sit for 20 minutes. Sprayed again and wiped it around with a sponge to eliminate the spotting of the spray. Waited an hour. Rinsed it all out…NOPE…still not satisfied. [I’ll be returning to my tried-and-true methods of Barkeeper’s Friend and Gel Gloss or Weiman’s S.S. cleaner/polish.] That annoying “DESCALE” message popped-up on the Keurig too. Trying that one next. Here’s what’s on the Milliard site: Coffee maker Add 2 TBSP of Milliard Citric Acid powder to your coffee maker and run it with 32 ounces of hot water for fresher and better-tasting coffee. I did this. Cannot tell if it’s properly descaled or not. Coffee tastes just as good as it did before, though. Certainly cheaper and less time-consuming than the recommended Keurig descale procedure — using their liquid descale solution. Hmmm….it’s been awhile. How do I get the ‘descale’ message to go off? FOUND IT: Make sure the power button is switched ‘OFF’. Press and hold the 8 oz. and 10oz. buttons — simultaneously — for 5+ seconds until the ‘descale’ light switches off. With all of this researching, boiling, measuring, stirring, soaking and scrubbing, I’ve failed to even TASTE this stuff… Taste-test: I stirred a 1/4 tsp. into 8 oz. of chilled water, as I wasn’t quite sure what the proper ratio should be. It DOES have a nice, lemon juice-like flavor. A tad sour with these measurements, though. A 1/4 tsp.+, with 16 oz. of water, might be a better mix if one prefers just a hint of something lemony in their water. If making a lemonade-type drink, and adding a sweetener, the 1/4 t. / 8 oz. + sweetness might just work! As I find more uses for this stuff, I’ll update this review. UPDATE: (kills bugs) Recently, I have absentmindedly left food bowls — that I set out for our neighbor’s visiting cat — outside. One still had food in it, the other was empty. Needless to say, hundreds of little piss-ants found both, and the bowls were COVERED with them! I’ve found that Windex works well to kill the ants instantly and enables me to then carry the bowls inside WITHOUT also bringing in any live 6-leggers. I used that method the first time on the bowl with remaining food (on the concrete). ALL DEAD! The second time (empty bowl on wood deck), I decided to grab my sprayer of citric acid solution to test IT out instead. WOW! It also worked great to kill those little b@$t@rd$ immediately! I’d read that it’s not good to spray this stuff on anything porous so, after I brought the bowls of dead ants in to clean them, I returned back to where I’d sprayed and rinsed the sprayed areas with water. Anyway, it seems to kill ants in a pinch. Who knew? A stink big made its way inside, too. I captured it in an empty PNB jar, sprayed some of the solution in there and capped it…within minutes, six toes up! ... show more
