What are the ingredients in Blueland’s Toilet Bowl Cleaner Tablets
Blueland is very transparent about its ingredients in its cleaning products, which I love. Here is the list of ingredients for the toilet cleaner tablets with an explanation of use. All ingredients are listed as “Naturally Derived.”
Toilet Bowl Cleaner Ingredients:
- Sodium Bicarbonate – Mineral-based cleaner that breaks down dirt, grime, and stains, commonly known as baking soda
- Citric Acid – Citrus fruit-derived cleaner that cuts through grease and grime
- Maltodextrin – Starch-derived ingredient that ensures the tablet holds together before use and that it will dissolve easily in water
- Water/Aqua – Local water used during manufacturing to help mix the ingredients (is evaporated out of the final tablet)
- Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate – Natural cleaner that breaks down stains and grime
- Brassica Napus (Canola) Seed Oil – Vegetable oil used to help the tablets form into shape during manufacturing
- Limonene – 100% natural essential oil extracted from orange peels to break down stains and grime
- Cymbopogon Flexuosus (Lemongrass) Oil – 100% natural essential oil extracted from Indian Lemongrass plants to fragrance the tablets
- Sodium Benzoate – Food grade preservative to help maintain shelf life

Do Blueland’s Toilet Bowl Cleaner Tablets really work?
Yes, they work just as good if not better than other toilet bowl cleaners I have tried. The fizzy toilet tablets eat away stains and stuck-on particles with ease. I was impressed by how well it cleaned under the lip of the bowl, where hard water stains and grimy buildup can accumulate. I only had to take a few swipes of my toilet brush to get the whole thing clean. You can smell the lemon scent immediately upon opening the package and dissolving the tablet, which makes for a nice fresh scent in your bathroom.

Are they safe for septic tanks?
Yes, I reached out to the company because I couldn’t find anything on the internet about this. This is what they said:
“All septic systems are different, but we don’t use solvents, chlorine bleach, or other harsh chemicals, all of which may cause septic system issues.”
