The standard use of baking soda that all housewives know about is its use as a leavening agent for dough.

However, the capabilities of baking powder do not end there.

It turns out that if you put an open pack of baking soda in the refrigerator, the unpleasant smell that appeared there earlier will soon disappear from the refrigerator.

In addition, baking soda, mixed in equal quantities with hydrogen peroxide and dishwashing liquid, turns into an excellent stain remover.

If you are thinking about cleaning your carpet, do not rush to contact a specialized organization: you can simply sprinkle a small amount of soda on the carpet, and after some time, vacuum it thoroughly.

To clean your mattress and make it smell good, add 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oil to a packet of baking soda and then mix well.

Pour a pack of the resulting “aromatized” soda onto the mattress and massage it thoroughly, and after an hour, vacuum it.

Finally, you can achieve a sparkling clean toilet by using a cleaning solution made from half a tablespoon of baking soda, a quarter tablespoon of olive oil soap, vinegar and hydrogen peroxide, 10 drops of essential oil with your favorite scent and 1 cup of hot water.
