It is no longer surprising that some spices can be used not only in cooking, but also in the garden to combat insect pests.
But they are no worse in everyday life, helping to tidy up the house, wash clothes or get rid of stains. Let's tell you in order.
Spices for washing
First of all, mustard powder will help remove greasy stains from clothes. It can be used even when washing wool or silk materials. In addition, mustard will help if you need to wash greasy dishes, but have nothing to wash them with. It will disinfect the surface and will not leave surfactants harmful to the body on the utensils.
Continuing with the topic of washing, we can’t help but mention vinegar, which works great as a rinse aid and also removes ingrained odors.
Spices against stains
Regular table salt works as a stain remover. It works best when the stains are still fresh. But you can do more than just sprinkle salt on the fabric. A paste of salt and water does the job perfectly. Leave it for at least an hour, and then wash the laundry.
You can simply wash your laundry with salt, and if you mix salt with vinegar, you can remove stains from glass.
