One mother said she discovered a hack that rids your bathroom floor of any lingering pee stains or smells—something that will come in handy especially if you have young boys around.

Posting to the Facebook Group called “Cleaning & Organising Inspiration Australia,” she revealed her solution: shaving cream.

The product, which is likely lying around your home and only costs a few bucks at a convenience store, apparently serves as an unexpected toilet floor scrub and air freshener.

The woman said she used a generous amount of shaving cream and put it on the floor all around her toilet—an area that can easily accumulate drops of urine.

“Three boys in the house including a two and three-year-old. Finished the first and smelt nice so now on to second bathroom,” she posted.

Her post garnered the attention of hundreds of other members of the group, and it racked up 570 comments.

Many users admitted that they do the same thing and have had successful results.

“It eliminates the urine odor. I have two pre-teens and make them do this in their toilet every week!” one person wrote.

Others explained how the trick works: you should leave the shaving cream on the floor from anywhere between 10 minutes to an hour, and then mop it up a few times to get it sparkly again.

“Not easy to clean, but the results are undeniable (and it really is only an extra mop of the area after the main bulk has been lifted the first time). Didn’t believe it until I tried it,” a commenter shared.

The only problem is, you’ll likely have to engage in this shaving cream routine a few times a week as the fresh scent doesn’t always last many days.

“I find it lasts for two days too. I’m gonna try a different brand though as you only get half the damn bottle from the home brand when the gas runs out,” one person commented.

Be sure to buy a big bottle because you’ll need a thick layer of cream to cover the ground around the toilet.
