Clean a\u00a0bathtub without chemicals\n\n\n\n

If\u00a0you\u2019re not a\u00a0fan of\u00a0using chemicals while cleaning, or\u00a0they run out when you urgently need to\u00a0clean your bathtub, this advice is\u00a0for you. To\u00a0remove dirt and make your bathtub smell better, take a\u00a0quarter of\u00a0a\u00a0grapefruit, dip it\u00a0in\u00a0sugar, and wipe the surface of\u00a0the tub with\u00a0it. Sugar, in\u00a0this case, works as\u00a0an\u00a0abrasive agent that, when combined with acid, gets rid of\u00a0dirt perfectly.\n\n\n\n

How to remove grease without clogging your sink\n\n\n\n

In order not to clog your kitchen sink, the easiest way to dispose of grease left in a pan after cooking bacon, sausage, or fatty meat is by sending it to the trash. To do this, cover any bowl with foil, pour the grease into it, and wait until it hardens. After that, you can simply take the greasy foil out and throw it away.\n\n\n\n

A\u00a0cost-effective lint roller that you can clean your furniture with\n\n\n\n

If you have pets, you\u2019ll need endless refills for your sticky lint roller, especially if you want to clean your furniture and other surfaces. In such cases, a velour lint roller is your best choice. Its advantage over a conventional velour brush is that it has a built-in container that accumulates all fur and hair. This prevents it from clogging, and you don\u2019t have to clean it in the process.\n\n\n\n

How to dry a dish sponge\n\n\n\n

A\u00a0dish sponge almost never dries out on\u00a0its special stand. The hanging holder can help with this. However, if\u00a0this option is\u00a0not for you, there is\u00a0another idea: cut the sponge in\u00a0the middle and make a\u00a0small hole in\u00a0the center. This will allow you to\u00a0hang it\u00a0on\u00a0the faucet so\u00a0that the water can drain into the sink.\n\n\n\n

Lemon oil instead of\u00a0sunflower oil to\u00a0remove stickers\n\n\n\n

Perhaps everyone knows that sunflower oil helps to get rid of stickers and glue residue on different objects. But it\u2019s not really pleasant to use because of the specific smell and oily base that forces you to separately wash off your hands and the cleaned surface. In this regard, lemon oil works much better: it doesn\u2019t leave a greasy layer and has a pleasant aroma.\n\n\n\n

How to remove oil stains from a plastic container\n\n\n\n

This trick is unlikely to work with very old stains since, in this case, the stain is completely absorbed by the plastic. But if the stain is new, pour water into the container, add detergent, and put a couple of paper towel pieces inside. Then close it and shake it thoroughly. The paper will absorb the oil, and you\u2019ll just have to rinse the container.\n\n\n\n

Organizing cleaning appliances\n\n\n\n

We have nothing against the neat storage of cleaning products and accessories on shelves. However, all of us must have noticed how tiring it is to run between the rooms in order to grab some kind of spray or sponge during cleaning (especially if your house is big). To save yourself from this hassle, you can store everything you need in a trolley on wheels and just roll it along while cleaning.\n\n\n\n

A hidden source of a pleasant aroma in your bathroom\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t like to use air fresheners because of allergies or because you think their smell is too intense, there is a little trick on how to make your bathroom smell nice. To do this, take your favorite essential oil and apply a few drops to the inside of the toilet paper roll.\n\n\n\n

How to wash a blender easily\n\n\n\n

Many of us wash blender containers like any other dish. However, it\u2019s easier to do this with the help of the blender itself: you just need to pour water into the container, add detergent, and turn the blender on for about 10 seconds. This will be enough to remove the obvious dirt. All you have to do after that is rinse the container with water.\n\n\n\n

How to clean a hairbrush\n\n\n\n

For hygiene reasons, you should clean your brush not just from hair, but also wash it\u00a0thoroughly. A\u00a0brush accumulates sebum, skin particles, and remnants of\u00a0styling products. Fortunately, this is\u00a0easy to\u00a0do. Just fill a\u00a0bowl or\u00a0sink with water, add baking soda and any shampoo, and soak your hairbrushes. In\u00a0about 30\u00a0minutes, rub them to\u00a0remove the dirt, then rinse under running water.\n\n\n\n

An easy way to clean the bottom of an iron\n\n\n\n

The dirty bottom of\u00a0iron is\u00a0a\u00a0headache for anyone who irons frequently. We\u00a0will share a\u00a0method of\u00a0how to\u00a0clean it\u00a0without chemicals and complex actions. You\u2019ll need a\u00a0paracetamol tablet: squeeze it\u00a0with eyebrow tweezers, turn on\u00a0the iron (just turn off the automatic steam function so\u00a0as\u00a0not to\u00a0burn yourself), and when it\u00a0warms\u00a0up, start cleaning. The tablet will begin to\u00a0melt from the heat and dissolve dirt along the way. Lastly, gently wipe the surface with a\u00a0towel or\u00a0another cloth.\n\n\n\n
