Limescale causes a lot of inconvenience, and not only when you have to use an electric kettle to heat water.

The scale layer itself cannot cause harm to health, unless you drink water with the red flakes that have fallen off. There are other reasons.

The thicker the limestone layer on the surface of the kettle, the longer it takes to heat the water. This primarily applies to electrical household appliances.

In addition, scale tends to flake off, after which it ends up in tea or other drinks and food products.

How to clean dishes

Most often, kitchen utensils are cleaned with citric acid, vinegar, and some housewives boil soda.

Compared to the method proposed in this article, all of these are expensive options, implying, albeit insignificant, expenses for getting rid of garbage.

Here's how to get rid of plaque using some not-so-helpful things.

You will need peelings from apples and pears, as well as other waste, including cores. That is, everything that cannot be eaten or used to make compote.

It is enough to put the fruit waste in a container that you plan to tidy up, fill it with water, bring it to a boil and leave it for several hours.

After this, the scale will begin to fall off in layers.
