We all know that having vinegar in the house comes in handy when we’re cooking. But there are also a lot of other reasons you should have vinegar in your house. Vinegar can help you with a surprising number of other household chores. It not only has a potent powerful smell but it is excellent for cleaning.
But that’s not all, it can be a game changer when it comes to tasks around the house such as a stinky trash can, pesky fruit flies, wrinkly shirts and more.
Here are 10 brilliant vinegar life hacks you can use on a day-to-day basis ranging from your kitchen, to life in general, making it a little easier to do your everyday tasks.
1) Stained Cooking Ware
Get those stains out of your cookware with some vinegar. Mix about a cup of water with a half cup of vinegar in your cookware. Boil cookware for five minutes and clean normally to get rid of all your stains.
2) Unclog a Sink
Clogged sink? Pour half a cup of baking soda into your drain followed by a cup of vinegar. The sink should foam up. Run your faucet once the foam stops to free the clog and rinse out your sink.
3) Remove Sticky Residue
Is there some sticky residue left behind? Spray vinegar over it and let it sit for a few seconds. The residue will come up when you scrub it.
4) Deodorize a Trash Can
Soak a piece of bread in vinegar and toss it at the bottom of your empty trash can. Let it sit overnight. Remove your bread the next day and enjoy a stink-free trash can.
5) All-Purpose Cleaner
Don’t buy expensive cleaners. Make your own all-purpose cleaner with vinegar. Just pour some vinegar, water, and a little dishwashing liquid into a spray bottle.
6) Catch Fruit Flies
Are fruit flies overtaking your home? Pour a cup of apple cider and cover it with plastic wrap. Poke some holes in the top to catch your fruit flies.
7) Spray To Remove Wrinkles
Need to de-wrinkle but don’t want to bust out the iron? Mix one part of vinegar with three parts of water in a spray bottle and spray your clothing. The wrinkles should be gone once your garment dries.
8) Keep The Cat Off Furniture
Is your cat scratching up your couch? Spray your furniture with some vinegar. The cats will be repelled by the smell.
9) Keep Flowers Alive
Extend the life of cut flowers with vinegar. Mix a little bit into the water in your flower vase. This should help them stay fresh looking for longer.
10) Clean Eyeglasses
