Not all housewives are ardent supporters of household chemicals - some of them are looking for alternative means of cleaning the house, including washing dishes.

And, it must be admitted, their efforts often end in success.

Thus, used tea bags filled with tea leaves can be used as a replacement for the usual store-bought dishwashing liquid.

To clean cups and plates from food residue, place them in the sink and fill with hot water, then add a few used tea bags.

It is worth soaking the dishes for several hours - this time is enough for the dishes to be easily washed.

By the way, the tea bags themselves can be used instead of a traditional sponge for washing dishes.

However, this is not the only way to use used tea bags.

They can also be used to eliminate unpleasant odors in the refrigerator or trash can. You just need to keep one condition - the bags must be dry.
