Experienced housewives consider it necessary to renew their starch supplies. Even if it is not used in the kitchen, it will help solve more than one household problem.
We can say that this is a universal product that can help out in a variety of situations.
We will tell you how to use starch in everyday life.
First: Fighting odors
This mainly concerns the unpleasant smell of feet that shoes emit. Starch, if you pour it into shoes or sneakers, will absorb excess moisture, and with it the unpleasant smell.
Second: ironing
You can not only starch shirt collars, but also smooth out creases in clothing. To do this, dissolve starch in water and treat the wrinkled fabric with the solution.
When the moisture is absorbed and the material begins to dry, smooth the garment with your hands – there will be no creases left.
Third: cleaning jewelry
You can clean metal jewelry by making a cleaning paste from cornstarch and a small amount of water.
Fourth: stain remover
Make a paste of water and starch and apply it to the greasy stain. When it dries, simply brush it off or vacuum it up.
It removes unpleasant odors well, including from upholstered furniture and carpets.
