VINEGAR USES FOR FLOORS, WALLS & FURNITURE
Floors: sponge mop with 1 cup of white vinegar in a bucket of warm water. Also removes dull residue left by most commercial toxic cleaners.
Carpets: light stains are extracted by using a mix of 2 Tbsps. salt and 1/2 cup white vinegar, rub paste into carpet and allow to dry before vacuuming.
Furniture: remove cloudy look and brighten by rubbing with mixture of 1 Tbsp. vinegar in quart warm water, then buff with soft cloth. Remove white rings/scratches from wood tables with mix of 50/50 vinegar and olive oil or use only olive oil.
Vinyl surfaces: wipe down with 2 Tbsps. liquid soap and 1/2 cup vinegar, then water rinse and dry.
Toys: Clean and disinfect with a light spray of vinegar (50/50 vinegar-water solution) and brush or wipe clean.
Air Freshener: mask kitchen odors by simmering a pot of water with 1/2 cup white vinegar.
Windows(also shower doors): spray 50/50 vinegar-water mix, then wipe clean with squeegee. (Great for eyeglasses.)
VINEGAR USES FOR OUTSIDE
Ants: spray equal parts vinegar and water on areas where ant invasions start and surrounding areas. (Chili powder and salt also work.) Vinegar works as a non-toxic pesticide. If you do get an ant bite immediately make paste of meat tenderizer and a little water, apply. This mixture also works on wasps or bee stings.
Car & Car Windows: Keep frost-free with coating solution of 50/50 white vinegar to water. Also, dissolve old decals and chewing gum with straight white vinegar.
Paint Brushes: soften by soaking in boiling white vinegar; also, remember that vinegar absorbs paint odors!
Fresh-Cut Flowers: to preserve add 2 tsps. white vinegar to quart warm water in vase, renew water every 2-3- days.
Unwanted Grass & Weeds: pour on straight vinegar.
My most favorite use for apple cider vinegar (Bragg raw, organic unfiltered - with the "mother") is 1 tsp. in 1 8 oz glass of choice of juice in the morning to curb appetite. Also doing this is known to keep viruses and colds away.
