Lemons are an excellent source of vitamins.

Fruits can be added to drinks and baked goods.

But citrus fruits are also effective in cleaning when you need to get rid of old plaque on plumbing.

But not everyone knows how to store such citrus fruits so that they last as long as possible.

If you plan to eat the fruit soon, you can leave it at room temperature. In this case, the taste and aroma will be perfectly preserved. It is better to choose a dark cabinet for storage, where sunlight does not reach.
