If you're in the middle of cleaning and you've run out of household chemicals, these products will help clean tough stains.

Most of them are likely to be found in the kitchen.

Citrus

Housewives use citrus peels to make cleaning products. Lemon juice can even kill mold.

You can clean your bathtub with grapefruit, which you should also sprinkle with salt. You can also walk on the tiles with this fruit.

Bananas

The pulp can be eaten, but the peel should be left. It is used to polish leather shoes and furniture, and the leaves of houseplants until they shine. After use, the peel is dried, then ground and poured into flower pots.

Ketchup

The product contains citric and acetic acid, so the product can be used to remove plaque on metal. For example, ketchup can be used to clean copper items, faucets, and pots.

Olive oil

Special chemicals have a strong odor and often contain harmful compounds. It is dangerous to use them without gloves.

A safe and effective alternative is olive oil. Mix it with lemon juice in a 1:2 ratio, shake, and then apply it to wooden furniture and wipe with a clean, dry cloth.

It is important not to overdo it, so that there are no greasy stains that stain clothes. Olive oil removes traces of gouache, stickers and returns the shine of newness.

Starch

Potato or corn flour is a powerful absorbent that absorbs not only water but also fat. The product will help remove a greasy stain from clothing, carpet or upholstery.

Starch is a non-abrasive cleaner that removes burnt-on stains from frying pans, pots, and cooktops.
