I don't even start general cleaning without peroxide: methods every housewife should know about
I have always been amazed at housewives who literally buy boxes of expensive, narrowly focused products in the household chemicals departments. Powder for tulle, products for removing sweat stains, mold remover, and so on. Such an arsenal of narrow action “flies” into a penny. I prefer to save on such products. I have been using peroxide-based products for a long time and I can say for sure that they work no worse than store-bought ones, and often even better, informs Ukr.Media.
Warning! You can find many ways to use peroxide in everyday life on the Internet. Sometimes the authors of such articles advise mixing peroxide with vinegar. Do not do this under any circumstances. As a result, you will get peracetic acid, which can severely damage your respiratory organs.
I really like this method of cleaning tile joints. I prepare the product in a half-liter jar, not in a cup, and now you will understand why.
-
Pour in half a cup of baking soda and add a quarter cup of peroxide, then add literally a teaspoon of dishwashing gel.
-
Shake and apply the paste to the seams.
-
After 5 minutes, rinse it off. You will see that the seams have become much lighter.
I make a mattress cleaning solution from peroxide and water.
I'm sure you vacuum your mattress every six months, as you should. But in addition to dust, it also accumulates the smell of sweat, and if you have small children, there may be other stains of organic origin.
Prepare a solution of peroxide and water in a 1:1 ratio. Apply the mixture to the stains with a sponge or soft cloth and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. The stain should lighten, if this does not happen, repeat the procedure. To quickly dry the mattress, use a hairdryer.
-
If your bathtub has become dull and has a build-up of plaque, prepare a paste of 2/3 baking soda and 1/3 peroxide. Apply this solution to the surface of the bathtub, plumbing fixtures, and shower screen.
-
After 30 minutes, rinse and observe the perfect result. I would like to note that this product is much more gentle than store-bought toothpastes with bleach, ammonia, and chemical fragrances.
Every month I disinfect all my toothbrushes with peroxide. I pour literally 100 ml of peroxide into a glass and dip the brushes in it with the bristles down. I leave it for 30-40 minutes. Then I rinse thoroughly.
Every few months I clean the entire refrigerator with peroxide. It perfectly whitens the surface and removes all unpleasant odors.
-
I pour the peroxide into a spray bottle and spread the product over the entire surface.
-
Afterwards, I wipe it clean with a soft cloth.
-
If the refrigerator has become very dirty, I add a tablespoon of dishwashing detergent to the peroxide.
-
You can enhance the remedy by adding a tablespoon of baking soda.
You will see how not only the dirt will be removed from the refrigerator, but the surface will also become lighter.
I also use peroxide to disinfect cutting boards.
Many housewives neglect this cleaning, and it's in vain.
-
First, spray peroxide on the surface.
-
After 10 minutes, sprinkle salt on the board and use half a lemon to rub the salt into the surface. This procedure will not only “kill” all foreign odors, but also whiten the boards.
Can't find an effective way to make your mirrors shine? Simply pour peroxide into a spray bottle and use it instead of mirror cleaner. Your mirrors will shine like new.
