Don't waste precious fridge space with bowls of baking soda or coffee - pop in a whole lemon (or two) to absorb smells & deodorise your fridge naturally. Replace it every few months.

i found out that if you clean your dirty grout with lemon juice and salt and a old toothbrush and scrub with this it really does clean your dirty grout

I have seen a few microwave solutions that include a bowl of water ad a slice of lemon and I agree but would like to add that if you alow the bowl to sit for five to ten minutes and then come into the microwave with a clean dry cloth starting from the top nearly every bit will just wipe away from the soaking in the steam.

i had a red wine stains on my light ivory coloured leather sofa we had a few people over and the wine wasnt noticed until the next day. i used lemon cif on my sofa to remove a wine stain and wiped it off with a baby wipe. i regularly clean it with a lemon and always wipe it off with a baby wipe. this has completely removed the stain no hard rubbing needed, it keeps it nice and fresh also.

Instead of using a feather duster which will just move dust around your room, fill a bowl with hot water and add a few drops of your favourite essential oil (I recommend lemon and lavender). Then soak a clean rag in the bowl, wring out and use to pick up dust. You'll enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy while giving your house a great smell and an eco friendly clean!

this is from a rerun of K&A here in the states, for dusting use 2 parts water to 1 part lemon oil keep rag in screw lid glass jar. works wonders just like i have finished spring cleaning.

After you have finished sqeezing the juice of a lemon, put half in your dishwasher and put on quick wash. It's a cheap way to clean your dishwasher and get rid of nasty smells. Fill the other half lemon with salt and sit in the fridge to absorb nasty smells.

For burnt items in a microwave (esp. popcorn) try NON acetone nail polish remover. Steam a little lemon in water after for the smell.

About the microwave, the best thing that I have done is put a cup of water in with some lemon juice and let it boil for a few minutes and then wipe out the microwave and it smells good and all the goop comes out as nice as pie. crazyknittincook

Help. How can I best clean my vitroceramic hob with out scarring it. I have tried baking soda and lemon but it's to tough. All help much appreciated.

I found the best way to clean a dirty toilet is to use 5 tspoons of baking soda mixed with boiling water. If you leave this in the toilet overnight the dirt should just fall off the next day. And for an even nice odour use the zest of a lemon aswell.
