Tuesday’s Tip – The Many Uses of White Vinegar

After seeing White Vinegar being used on a few TV programme for all sorts of weird and wonderful purposes I decided to do a little research. And low and behold, I came across not just dozens but actually hundreds of uses for this amazing liquid.

Here are a few of them:

Gardening: Kill weeds and grass growing in unwanted places by pouring full strength white vinegar in cracks and crevices of paths and driveways.

Cleaning: Clean and deodorise a drain by pouring one cup of baking soda (another amazing multi purpose product) and 1/2 cup of hot white vinegar down the drain. Let this soak for 5 minutes, then run hot water afterwards.

Laundry: To remove soap residue that makes black clothes look dull use white vinegar in the final rinse.

Health: Stop insect bites and stings from itching by dabbing them with a cotton ball saturated with white vinegar.

Automotive: Remove the hazy film that builds up on the inside of car windows by spraying with white vinegar.

Pets: Prevent your cat from eating your house plants by spraying the leaves with a solution of white vinegar and water.
