Last week, Grady's GreenLiving Tips detailed the natural cleaning power of lemons and highlighted areas in the home that can be cleaned with lemons and lemon juice. This week's blog will focus on the cleaning power of vinegar. Vinegar is available at any grocery store and many home good stores. Unlike lemons, vinegar can be saved and stored for repeated uses. Read about several ways to clean with vinegar here:
1. Unclog drains: Vinegar is great at cleaning out blockages. Mixed with a little baking soda and poured down the drain, the drain should clear faster than before.
2. Eliminate stains: Different types of vinegar are great at getting stains out of the carpet or clothing items. Vinegar can remove coffee, grass, rust, even ink stains- and many more. Several stain removing tips are provided in the article "How To Remove Laundry Stains With Vinegar" from The Balance at thebalance.com.
3. Clean glasses and cups: Pour a little vinegar into the dishwasher along with regular dishwashing soap to see a dramatic clean on glassware.
4. Remove stickers: Have any pesky stickers stuck on furniture that are tough to remove? Rub the sticker with vinegar, wait ten seconds, and then try again: the sticker should peel off easier.
5. Prevent mold and mildew: Mix water and vinegar into a spray bottle and spray onto areas of the bathroom such as the inside of the shower or sink. This will prevent the build-up of mildew and mold.
These tips are included in the article "Clean Your Whole House With Vinegar, Baking Soda, and Lemon" posted on Earth911.
