Cleaning Tips / Baking Soda
Baking soda on a damp sponge removes grease easily from stove, back splash etc.
• Also works great for carpet deodorizing, just sprinkle onto carpet before going to bed and vacuum in the morning.
• Baking Soda can be used for many jobs around the house, scrubbing sinks, bath tub, stove, refrigerator and laundry. It leaves everything smelling nice and cleans just as good as any cleanser without scratching enamel.
• Also for keeping pipes clean under the sink - pour about one quarter cup of baking soda down the drain with about 1 cup of vinegar, this makes a chemical reaction, then pour some hot water down the drain. Hey Presto!
• Baking soda or Borax is also good for getting rid of unwanted insects, just sprinkle around cabinets and cupboards and other places the insects might run.
• If you burn a saucepan put in some baking soda and believe it or not Avon's Skin So Soft whilst it is still hot and allow to soak. Apparently comes clean.
• To minimize odors in your fridge, remove top from box of baking soda and place it on one of the shelves. From time to time stir contents.
