Homeowners are only just realising little-known cleaning hack using 75p item that’s a staple in every house
HOMEOWNERS are only just realising a cleaning trick using a 75p item that’s a staple in Brits’ houses.
Experts say using items you have in your pantry at home can work just as well as expensive cleaning products when it comes to getting sparkling windows.
And there’s one piece – or slice – of food that they say works wonders.
Soft white bread is said to be a great way to remove smudges from windows.
Rubbing a slice over the dirty area will pull the grime from the glass, leaving a streak-free window.
And if there are any crumbs or residue left over, running a soft cloth will finish the job off.
John Cutts, founder of MeandMyGlass.co.uk said: “You don’t need to buy any expensive cleaning products to remove smudges, dirt and grime from your glass windows and mirrors.
“Instead, there are lots of food items sitting in the back of your kitchen cupboards that are really effective as natural cleaning products.
“Use cornstarch mixed with cold water to remove more stubborn marks on glass and tea bags rubbed across the surface will remove smudges.
“Ketchup is another kitchen staple which acts as a glass cleaner – just let the condiment sit for a couple of minutes on any stains and wipe clean with a damp cloth.”
It’s not unusual for cleaning experts to share easy and cheap tips and tricks of the trade for homeowners.
One wizz recently revealed the 99p item in everyone’s household which is ideal for cleaning.
Brits are only just finding out that a product in your cupboard could remove stains from any place in your home.
