Disinfect Your Toothbrush
Toothbrushes can harbor bacteria and food debris after each use, so it’s important to disinfect them regularly. Soak your toothbrush in mouthwash for 2 minutes to ensure it’s free of harmful bacteria.
Before brushing your teeth, disinfect your toothbrush by soaking it in mouthwash for 2 minutes. Here’s another tip for disinfecting household items:
Clean Your Microwave
Sponges used for washing dishes can harbor large amounts of harmful bacteria. To disinfect your sponge, wet it and place it in the microwave for 1 minute. The high heat will kill any bacteria. Do this every few days, especially if your sponge starts to smell.
Restore Silver Jewelry
To bring back the shine to your silver jewelry, use a tray lined with aluminum foil. Add 2 spoons of baking soda and 1 spoon of salt, then place your jewelry on top. Pour boiling water over it and let it soak overnight. This will remove any tarnish and dirt from your silver accessories.
Keep Window Sills Clean
Don’t forget to clean your window sills regularly, as they can accumulate condensation and become a breeding ground for mold and bacteria.
Clean Your Hairbrush
Hairbrushes can become dirty and harbor bacteria from your hair. At least once a month, remove any hair caught in the brush, soak it in a shampoo solution overnight, and then rinse it with clean water.
Care for Wooden Kitchen Utensils
Wooden spoons and utensils can be affected by moisture and heat in the kitchen. Rub them with a slice of lemon to remove any odors, and treat them with vegetable or coconut oil to keep them looking shiny and protect them from harmful moisture.
Excess moisture can lead to the growth of mold and bacteria, which can be harmful to your health.
Clean Your Oven
Heat your oven to 65°C, then turn it off. Place 1/5 cup of ammonia on the top rack and a bowl of boiling water on the bottom rack. Close the door and let it sit overnight. In the morning, wipe away the loosened grime.
