Lime and Salt – A powerful Ally for Cleaning your House
I'm pretty sure that you have salt and some lemons at home, right? This simple combination is natural, non-toxic, and efficient. So, let's use it!
Equipment
- A knife to cut the lemon
- Glass Jar ( For the Natural Air Freshener )
Materials
- 1 Lemon or Lime
- A Handful of Fine Salt
Instructions
- Simple as that - lemon and salt. You can use it for:
- Natural Air Freshener
- Pour lemon peels and salt into a glass container and place it in the kitchen (near the garbage, for example)
- Cheese Grated Cleaner
- Clogged graters are not fun to clean, but the process doesn't have to be difficult. Rub 1/2 lemon with salt in the holes where the rest of the grated cheese is. The fat particles from the cheese will come off, then just wash with detergent, and rinse it off with hot water.
- Sanitize The Trash Can
- To sanitize the trash can, clean it with a mixture made with lemon juice, vinegar, and salt. The stink will disappear!
- Shoes – No more cheesy feet
- A great way to remove shoe odors is to revitalize them with a more pleasant smell (the citrus lemon smell). You can put some fresh lemon or lime peel inside your shoes (overnight) and/or add a few drops of lemon essential oil in a cotton ball and left inside your shoes during the night ( Attention: do not use essential oil in white fabric or suede shoes )
- Salty Lemon Scrub for your grill!
- Combine salt and lemon juice in a paste, and scrub with half a potato. Lemon juice, salt, and potatoes have great abrasive qualities!
- The use of baking soda in place of salt is another great solution. In combination with the acid of the lemon juice, the baking soda works as an effective degreaser.
- Cutting Board Cleaner
- Plastic or wood doesn't matter. Residues in cutting boards are easy to clean; You just need to rub half a lemon with salt over the entire surface before washing.
