Uses for vinegar

Get rid of ants

When they aren’t swarming your kitchen, ants are fascinating creatures. But since ants are drawn to so many things in your home, many question whether a vinegar solution will genuinely repel them from attacking your supplies. Fortunately, the answer is an emphatic yes. The vinegar repels ants due to their inability to cope with the strong odor that vinegar leaves. When ants walk, they create pheromone trails to follow each other. The vinegar hides this with its potent aroma, preventing the ants from sensing anything with their antennae.

Cleanse a toothbrush

We don’t think about cleaning our toothbrushes very often. Our toothbrushes, however, can carry a lot of bacteria. The good news is that by sanitizing your toothbrush with vinegar, you may prevent germs and bacteria from accumulating on it. The process is as follows: Combine 1/2 cup water, 2 tablespoons vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda in a mixing bowl. For 30 minutes, soak your toothbrush in this. Do this weekly if it isn’t too much of a hassle for you.
