Familiar objects like foil, rubber gloves, or cat litter can sometimes be truly multifunctional.

For example, foil can be used for more than just cooking in the oven.

Crumple a rustling leaf into a tight ball and try rubbing pots and pans with it – this will make the dishwashing process go much faster.

If you accidentally dropped your phone or other gadget into water, don’t rush to the store for a new one.

Instead, place the device in rice cereal, or better yet, in cat litter, which is an excellent absorbent and will easily rid you of the trouble of moisture where it should not be.

Did you know that you can easily remove pet hair from carpet and upholstered furniture using rubber gloves?

It is enough to slightly wet your hand with the glove on it in water, and then run it over the “wool” surface, and all the hairs will stick to the product.

And using white wine to get rid of red stains may seem like a mind-blowing trick to some. We don’t know how, but the main thing is that it works.

But if there is a trace of ink on the clothes, in this case, an antiseptic that we are used to using for hands will come to the rescue. Apply a small amount to the fabric, and after some time wash it in the usual way - nothing will remain of the stain.
