With our iron and sulfur problem, the only thing (so far) I’ve found to clean the toilets with is a product called “The Works” toilet bowl cleaner. I try to clean with natural stuff as much as possible, but none of the natural things I’ve found will get the iron stains out of the toilet bowls. - I’ve found that putting a good bit of 3% hydrogen peroxide in some water in my glass coffee pot and letting it set for a couple of hours or so will clean it better than anything. I may have to use a gentle scrubber sponge on it also, but it works better than the stuff I’ve used on it so far. Not a big problem really, but it does get sort of off-putting when it gets really built up. - We’ve lived with this water for almost 25 yrs., so I got used to my white clothes being sort of a cream color after a few washes. Out well is deep, but we can’t escape the sulfur. - I envy you your great water! Be thankful; I know you are!!

I don’t know where you live but here in the Philly suburbs we can buy The Works for $1 at the local $ store!

just use bleach and water in the coffee pot, wait a short while, then pour it out, rinse and let dry... no more residue ...
