But what I&#8217;ve realized lately is that fly catching is probably just one of the very few things that vinegar cannot do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s been a huge buzz lately about all-natural cleaning products and managing a &#8220;greener&#8221; household. We all want to protect our families from the harsh effects of the chemicals in most cleaning supplies. Generally, I try to stick by the rules of, &#8220;If I can&#8217;t pronounce the first three ingredients, then I&#8217;m not using it to clean my house.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why vinegar is the perfect tool to use for everyday cleaning. It&#8217;s such a versatile and natural product that it seems like its powers are unlimited.<\/p>\n<p>Here are just a few ways that vinegar can change your life (just trust me):<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Pour white&nbsp;vinegar (with just a little bit of water) into an empty spray bottle<br \/>\nand spray to your heart&#8217;s content to deodorize a room. This works especially<br \/>\nwell for those lingering Saturday morning breakfast smells or cigarette<br \/>\nsmoke.<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Soak a slice of bread in white vinegar and leave it in your kid&#8217;s lunchbox or<br \/>\nthe refrigerator to remove the smell of tuna casserole from a week ago.<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Get stubborn stains out of pots by boiling 2 parts white vinegar and 1 part<br \/>\nwater. The stains should magically lift, so you only have to wipe down to<br \/>\nfinish&nbsp;cleaning. (No more wrinkly hands from spending twenty minutes<br \/>\nscrubbing!)<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Add a cup of distilled vinegar to the wash cycle to make towels fluffier, sheets<br \/>\nfresher, and blankets softer.<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; To prevent that gross soap film from clinging to your glasses, put a cup of<br \/>\nwhite vinegar in the bottom of your dishwasher and run for a few minutes.<br \/>\nTake the cup out and run a normal cycle.<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If your windshield wipers seem like they&#8217;re doing more damage than good,<br \/>\nthen maybe it&#8217;s time to clean them with some vinegar! Just dampen a cloth<br \/>\nwith white vinegar and run it completely up and down the blade twice. Voila!<\/p>\n<p>There are hundreds of more ways to clean with vinegar, but these are just a few of my favorites. Just remember to use white or distilled vinegar and always combine with some water before cleaning to dilute the acid a bit.<\/p>\n<p>Happy cleaning Kiwi Lovers!<\/p>\n<address>&nbsp;<\/address>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The old adage is that you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
