As a professional housekeeper, I thoroughly enjoy finding innovative cleaning and cooking techniques. These tips often come from everyday objects that most people would overlook for their extraordinary benefits. Whenever I come across something, I am constantly thinking about how it can be applied to improve household chores.
With diligent research and resourceful utilization, I have discovered that even the smallest and seemingly insignificant objects can greatly enhance comfort and save valuable time during housekeeping tasks.
For instance, one day while opening a new bottle of cooking oil, I paused before discarding the small cap into the trash. I questioned whether this tiny cap served any purpose beyond sealing the oil bottle during transportation. A quick online search yielded surprising results, and I decided to wash and keep the cap for further use.

Surprisingly, this small cap can be used to easily untie knots in plastic bags. I stumbled upon a video online demonstrating this technique, which made untying knots quicker and simpler using the cap.
Untying knots in plastic bags can often be a hassle, and at times, it may lead to accidental nail breakages or cuts. However, with this simple method, tying and untying plastic bags will cease to be a problem for you.
Here’s how it works: place the circular part of the cap on one of the bag handles before tying it. Whenever you need to untie the knot, simply pull the circular part, and it will loosen the knot, making the process much easier.
To see a video demonstration on how to implement this technique, watch the video below. After watching, make sure to keep the small caps from your cooking oil bottles, as they prove to be incredibly convenient.
