Bounce- 1. It will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them. It also repels mice.… 4. It repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season. 5. Eliminate static electricity from your television (or computer) screen. 6. Since... {hmmm.}

Cleaning Uses for Vinegar You Probably Never Thought Of

Cheap all-purpose natural cleaner: Put orange peels + vinegar in a jar, let sit for 10 days, strain liquid and use {If I could get past peeling all those oranges, I wonder if it remains sticky.}
1 The first step is to apply some toothpaste on a dry cloth. 2 Once the toothpaste is on the cloth, begin to rub the headlight cover with it until the grime comes off. 3 Keep rubbing the toothpaste in circular motions until the grime breaks down all the way. After that proceed to rinse with water and wipe down with a wet cloth.
Daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal cleaning checklists from Martha.
Use baking soda and vinegar to fix funky towels. Over time, and with many washes, your bath towels will build up detergent and fabric softener residue, leaving them both unable to absorb as much water and smelling kinda funky when they do. Rather than give Target another lump sum, run them through the wash once with hot water and a cup of vinegar, then again with hot water and a half-cup of baking soda, as wikiHow suggests. That strips the residue from them, leaves them smelling fairly fresh again, and makes your post-shower experience a dryer one,

Take a spray bottle, fill it about 1/8th full with rubbing alcohol, add a drop of Dawn dishwashing soap, a few drops of scented oil (optional, but makes it smell so good), fill the rest of the way with water, shake together, and you're good to go! It makes your granite (or any countertop) shine and feel so smooth at a fraction of the price~I have loved it and use it on my appliances as well.
Another pinner said....I just tried this - I will NEVER buy Comet, Soft Scrub, etc again. Used in the tub - sprayed on, left for about 1/2 hr - wiped down like nothing there. It is sparkling!
Heat a bowl of water and vinegar for 5 minutes in the microwave. The steam will get rid of stains and then you simply wipe it off. {You can actually just spray with your favorite cleaner, heat, then wipe.}
Hmm... I'll have to see if it's true. "My bathtub has never been whiter!! Works great on glass shower doors too- no more soap residue!" Martha Stewart's Tub Scrub - works better than any other cleaning product to get off hard water and soap residue.
clean ceiling fan blades with a pillowcase - slip pillowcase over blade and slide off, dirt stays inside case, take pillowcase outside and shake dust out - brilliant!

To help protect your fabrics, try tossing your linens and clothes into the wash with a tablespoon of salt. The chloride will help seal the color in and keep it looking fresher longer. It works for rugs, it works for scarves, it works for anything that's machine washable. As Martha would say, "It's a good thing."

Scrub your cast iron with coarse salt and a soft sponge. The salt is a natural abrasive and will absorb oil and lift away bits of food while preserving the pan's seasoning. Rinse away salt and wipe dry. {yes.}

Wish I knew this earlier!! --> Who Knew?? Sprinkle a little on the shirt’s underarms and collar, then iron to prevent sweat stains on white shirts. The powder forms a barrier that keeps oil and grime from seeping into the threads.

Turn a clorox wipe container into a grocery bag dispenser!
The "miracle" of baking soda and peroxide. Put 1/4 cup of baking soda in a bowl.....add enough peroxide to make a paste. Rub on with fingers or sponge. Cleans EVERYTHING! Stove, oven, pans, stainless steel appliances, even the white handles of the fridge door.
