Many housewives consider coffee grounds to be waste.

And in vain, because the mass remaining in the cup or in the paper filter can be useful during cleaning.

So, the grounds cope well with dirt and mask unpleasant odors well.

There are three very interesting options for using coffee grounds when cleaning your apartment.

Improve the appearance of wooden furniture

Know that damaged areas can be “masked” using coffee grounds.

Add some plain water and vegetable oil to this mixture.

Carefully wipe the areas of the furniture that need “masking” with the resulting “mush”.

After a quarter of an hour, “walk” over the surface with a clean piece of cloth.

Remove unpleasant odors from the refrigerator

You removed all expired products from the refrigerator, but the unpleasant smell remains?

No problem! Take a saucer, put some grounds on it and leave it on one of the shelves of the refrigerator.

After some time, the stench should disappear.

Important: you need to use dry coffee grounds. Wet grounds will not work.

Washing dishes

Coffee grounds are great for removing stains from pans and pots.

The mass left in the cup after drinking coffee copes well with fat without damaging even the Teflon coating.
