Starch is in every kitchen and is often used in cooking. Experienced housewives know that it is a universal product and use it everywhere: to clean, wash, feed.
Here are some illustrative examples of where this natural product is used.
1. Removing stains from clothes
Mix starch with water and apply to the stain, leave for a few minutes, then wash as usual.
2. Cleaning carpets and upholstered furniture
Apply a small amount of starch to the surface and rub it in with a brush or sponge, then remove excess starch with a vacuum cleaner.
3. Removing odors from the refrigerator
Sprinkle a small amount of starch into the refrigerator and leave it overnight, then air it out in the morning.
4. Cleaning glass
Apply starch to the glass and wipe it with a soft cloth or paper towel.
5. Removing glue and marker stains
Mix a small amount of water and starch to form a paste and apply to the stain, then wipe with a soft cloth.
6. Cleaning the keyboard
Mix some cornstarch and water to form a paste. Apply it to the keyboard and wipe it with a soft cloth or paper towel.
7. Removing adhesive residue from tape
Apply a small amount of water to the glue and mix it with starch until you get a paste. Apply it to the glue and leave it for a few minutes. Then remove the remaining glue with a soft cloth.
8. Rust removal
To clean metal surfaces, mix water and starch to form a paste, then apply it to the rusty areas. Leave for a few hours, then wipe with a damp cloth.
9. Removing ink from a pen
Apply a little water to the paper, then mix it with a little starch. When the ink is absorbed, remove the starch with a soft cloth.
It is worth noting from personal experience: starch works no worse than expensive industrial products, but at the same time it is a product of natural origin and does not cause harm to health.
