Hydrogen peroxide is a household staple that most of us have tucked away in our cabinets, but its potential goes far beyond the occasional first-aid kit inclusion. This remarkable chemical can be found in an array of everyday health and cleaning products, from bleach to whitening toothpaste. However, its utility extends well beyond these common uses. Here are 12 innovative and unexpected ways you can harness the power of hydrogen peroxide in your home:
Shine Your Kitchen Glass
Give your glass surfaces, like stove tops, oven doors, and mirrors, a sparkling makeover. Just spritz hydrogen peroxide directly onto the glass and wipe away dirt and grime with a microfiber cloth.
Disinfect Countertops
Your kitchen can be a haven for microbes and bacteria, particularly on countertops and sinks. To effectively disinfect your kitchen, spray hydrogen peroxide on these surfaces, allowing it to sit for a few minutes before wiping away.
Revitalize Cutting Boards
Cutting boards can harbor harmful germs and bacteria if not cleaned properly. Safeguard your family’s health by cleaning and disinfecting them with hydrogen peroxide.
Freshen Fruits
For a thorough fruit cleanse, dip them in a hydrogen peroxide solution for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water. Surprisingly, hydrogen peroxide is safe for this purpose.
Decontaminate Refrigerators
Overlooked cleaning can turn your fridge into a breeding ground for bacteria. Combat this by spraying the inside of your refrigerator with hydrogen peroxide, letting it sit, and then wiping it away with a microfiber cloth.
