Thankfully, cleaning pros have revealed a product you can grab on the high street to tackle even the toughest of stains.
Even if you clean your bathroom daily, mould is a common problem because of the humidity levels caused by showers and baths.
Mould can grow on sealant around the windows, bath, and sink, making your bathroom look dirty no matter what you do.
It can look unsightly in the home - but that's not the only problem mould causes.

HOUSE THAT? Mould covered the bathroom of my new home but I banished it in minutes
The NHS states if you have damp and mould in your home you're more likely to have respiratory problems, respiratory infections, allergies or asthma.
Damp and mould can also affect the immune system.
Taking to Instagram, the pros from @thecleangroup have revealed how a supermarket buy can make all the difference - and there's no scrubbing involved.
"Totally natural & totally powerful. You don't need to use toxic chemicals to banish black mould," they captioned the viral post.
So, what's the secret?
The combination of hydrogen peroxide and some simple kitchen roll is all you need.
New Build Home Full Of Mould
The best part is you don't need to break the bank to get your hands on it either, since hydrogen peroxide can be bought from B&Q for just £8.99.
Of course, you won't need to use a full bottle since you'll only need to cover the affected areas, meaning the trick will work out to as little as 30p.
First decant 6% Hydrogen Peroxide into a spray bottle and spritz any areas with black mould.
Then line the same areas with kitchen roll and spray again before waiting 30 minutes to remove everything - you should make sure to wear gloves when using hydrogen peroxide as well.
Finish up by rinsing the same area thoroughly and you'll be left with a bathroom that looks as good as new.
"That's it! No scrubbing, no toxic chemicals and no bleach," the pros said.
After sharing the trick on Instagram other cleaning fans couldn't believe how well it worked.
One said: "This is brilliant, thank you!"
And a second commented: "I'm giving my daughters house a full reset while she's off for the weekend and I know she had this problem so thanks for sharing this."
"I've never tried this, I always use white vinegar but great results," another wrote.

Daughter of anti-vaxxer nurse died of blood cancer after refusing treatment following mums advice, say brothers
Brothers Gabriel and Sebastian said she might still be alive if she had not caved in to pressure CANCER TRAGEDY Daughter of anti-vaxxer nurse died of blood cancer after refusing treatment following mums advice, say brothers Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE daughter of an anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist nurse died of blood cancer after listening to her and refusing treatment, her brothers claim. Cambridge graduate Paloma Shemirani, 23, died last year after being diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Paloma Shemirani, 23, died last year after being diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma The Miss Brighton finalist refused chemo despite doctors saying it would give her an 80 per cent chance of survival. Instead, she listened to her mum Kate, 60, who was struck off the UK's nursing register in 2021 for discouraging masks and Covid vaccines. She claimed the Covid virus was linked to the roll-out of 5G technology, and a political tool to gain access to and change people's DNA. Brothers Gabriel and Sebastian said she might still be alive if she had not caved in to pressure. Sebastian told the BBC: 'My sister has passed away as a direct consequence of my mum's actions and beliefs.' Kate, now 60, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012 and had the tumour removed through surgery, undergoing a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. But online, she appears to suggest she was healed following 'Gerson therapy' - a baseless form of alternative medicine. Mrs Shemirani has not commented on the claim. Anti-vaxxer parents 'murdered' eight-year-old daughter after 'stopping life-saving medication & PRAYED instead'

I've lost 4st on Mounjaro – the foods you can't eat because they'll give you a belly ache, it's not takeaway
Read on to see the effects of Mounjaro WEIGHT TO GO I've lost 4st on Mounjaro – the foods you can't eat because they'll give you a belly ache, it's not takeaway Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WOMAN who lost 4 stone using the weight loss jab Mounjaro has shared what it's really like. Ken, from the UK, took to social media, sharing how the injection can affect what you're allowed to eat. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Ken shared the foods you can't eat while on the fat loss jabs Credit: tiktok/@itsken_x 3 Takeaway was still okay for Ken to eat Credit: Alamy In the clip, she said: "Hi my name is Ken and I have been on Mounjaro for the last seven months. "I've lost over 4 stone and gone from obese to overweight in that time. "Should you be avoiding any foods on Mounjaro? Potentially. It's all trial and error." Ken revealed that she had certain food she loved but now had to cut out of her diet due to an upset stomach and 'sulfur burps'. Most burps are odourless but sulfur burps can smell like rotten eggs and be a sign of digestive issues. While it won't happen to everyone on fat loss jabs, some have reported it as a side effect. To avoid it, Ken recommended keeping a food diary to see what could be triggering it. She added: "Because often food choices can make a difference with our side effects. "Some people say that greasy or fried food can really unsettle their stomach and for me, spicy food or garlic can trigger my sulfur burps." Ken said she was still able to enjoy a takeaway without any negative effects but that it differs from person to person. I'm on Mounjaro & having a kebab for dinner left me bedbound for 24 hours - but I'm trolled for not eating healthily 3 She found garlic and chili to be a trigger Credit: Getty "So don't necessarily restrict things if you like to eat them and your stomach can handle it," she continued. "Don't necessarily restrict things because it's all about eating anything you want but in moderation." The clip was shared on her TikTok account @itsken_x which went viral with over 46k views. People were quick to share their own experiences and what food they couldn't handle while being on the drug. What to do if you lose too much weight too quickly whilst on Mounjaro IF you're losing too much weight too quickly while on Mounjaro, it's important to take action to avoid potential health risks like muscle loss, malnutrition, dehydration, and fatigue. Here's what you can do: Evaluate Your Caloric Intake Mounjaro reduces appetite, which can make it easy to eat too little. If you're losing weight too fast (more than two to three lbs per week after the initial adjustment period), try: Tracking your food intake to ensure you're eating enough calories (apps like MyFitnessPal can help). Increasing protein intake to preserve muscle mass (aim for 0.6–1g per pound of body weight). Adding healthy fats and complex carbs (e.g., avocados, nuts, whole grains) for balanced energy. Adjust Your Dosage (With Doctor's Approval) If your weight loss is too rapid or causing side effects, your doctor may: Pause dose increases or lower your dosage. Adjust your treatment plan to stabilise your weight loss. Strength Training & Exercise To prevent muscle loss: Incorporate resistance training at least two to three times per week. Stay active with low-impact exercises like walking or yoga. Hydrate & Manage Electrolytes Drink enough water (Mounjaro can reduce thirst). Electrolytes matter - Consider adding magnesium, sodium, and potassium if you feel weak or fatigued. Monitor for Malnutrition & Deficiencies Rapid weight loss can cause vitamin/mineral deficiencies (especially B12, iron, and electrolytes). If you experience: Fatigue, hair loss, or dizziness, ask your doctor about supplements. Consider Further Medical Guidance If your weight loss is excessive or causing health concerns, speak with your healthcare provider. They might adjust your dosage, diet, or exercise plan to help stabilise your weight loss. One person wrote: "Spring onions for me and I have them in everything usually." Another commented: 'The only thing that I have found that doesn't agree with me so far is alcohol." "I can't even get a meal down me," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "Bread and cheese give me a bloated stomach and headache." "Carbonate drinks,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: 'Had a Chinese for the first time last night since being on MJ for 4 months and it was the biggest mistake of my life."
