Did you know that vinegar is not just for cooking?

It is also a great eco-friendly cleaner. That’s why in this blog we want to show you “10 Things You Can Clean with Vinegar”

1- Microwave.

Pour equal parts of water and vinegar and heat in the microwave for three to four minutes. This will release all the dirt that is stuck, making it much easier to clean. This will also remove any type of odor that be in the microwave.

2- Scissors

If your scissors are not working cutting the way they should, they probably have something stuck on the blades. Put vinegar directly on a microfiber cloth and wipe the blades, this will remove any sticky film and leave your scissors like new.

3- Stainless steel appliances

4- Dishes

5- Deodorize the towels

Add a cup of vinegar when you are washing towels (and sheets) and this will not only take away the smell, but they will also be smooth, since vinegar works as a softener.

6- Mirrors and windows

In a spray bottle put a cup of water, half a cup of vinegar, and a couple drops of dish soap. This mix is great for mirrors and windows as the acidity of vinegar will remove film on the surface made by dirt, dust, and debris.

7- Pet accident

If you have a puppy and is not fully trained you're probably experiencing some accidents. Do not worry! Dry the accident area, mix equal parts of water and vinegar and spray on the area. This completely eliminates the smell and the puppy no longer knows that this is his place to go to the bathroom.

8- Handles and switches

Especially during flu season, make sure you clean high touch surfaces such as door handles and light switches with a mixture of equal parts water and vinegar.

9- Trash can

Soak a sheet of paper towel in pure vinegar and put it in the bottom of the garbage can, this will absorb all bad odor from food, trash, etc.

10- The faucet

You have probably seen this method in shower heads, but don't forget the kitchen faucet is the same just smaller. Put full strength white vinegar directly in a plastic bag, tie it with an elastic and soak for about two or three hours (or overnight!). This will remove all gunk from the holes where water runs. Make sure you brush off all dirt, and rinse it. There you have a clean faucet where water can go through completely clean.
