• Ammonia, diluted with 3 parts water in an empty spray bottle can be used to clean windows, appliances and countertops. Full strength it can remove wax build-up from the kitchen floor.
• An excellent way to scour copper and brass is 1/2 cup vinegar mixed with 1 tablespoon salt.
• Full strength pine oil is great for deodorising garbage cans, and scrubbing the kitchen and bathroom floor.
• Baking soda can be used instead of scouring powder and also removes stains and odours from refrigerators and coffee pots.
• A sprinkle of dry baking soda before vacuuming will freshen the carpeting. Try it as a deodoriser for diaper pails and kitty litter.
