Lemons are not just for making a pitcher of lemonade anymore. Besides its obvious uses for making lemonade and adding zing tea, lemons have many more uses around the house. Here are some of its uses when cleaning up:
Lemons are acidic and can provide some antibacterial and antiseptic properties for cleaning.
Countertop stains can be removed by allowing lemon juice to sit on the stain for a few minutes. Scrub the area with baking soda and watch the stains disappear. Don't leave the lemon juice sitting for too long. It can be powerful stuff.
Clean drains by grinding lemon grinds in the garbage disposal to freshen the drain. Hot water with a little lemon poured down a drain will also freshen the drain.
Lemon juice acts as a natural bleaching agent. Put lemon juice onto white linens and clothing and allow them to dry in the sun. Stains will be bleached away.
Clean copper-bottomed pots and pans. Cut a lemon in half. Dip it in some salt, and clean spots from your copper.
Leave a fresh lasting scent. Vinegar can be a great cleaning ingredient, but many people dislike the vinegar smell. Adding lemon juice to vinegar when cleaning can help neutralize the vinegar smell.
