Lemon is a fruit that is not only a source of vitamin C, but is also indispensable in the household.

We will tell you about several non-trivial ways of using it in everyday life.

Cleaning the microwave

Cut the lemon into wedges, squeeze the juice into a bowl, put the rest in a bowl and fill with water. Set the timer for 3 minutes and preheat the microwave.

Now all the grease and dirt will come off with a couple of strokes of a soft cloth.

Marinating meat

Instead of the usual kefir or vinegar marinade, try lemon. The acidity of the fruit will soften the toughest meat and add a unique aroma.

Stain removal

Lemon juice is the first remedy for berry stains and stains on clothes.

To wash your hands after cleaning berries, use juice mixed with corn flour. It is recommended to leave this mixture on the skin for a couple of minutes and then wash it off.

It will also help in the fight against stains. Pour lemon juice on the stain, add a spoonful of salt on top: such a mixture can remove, for example, deodorant stains.

Getting rid of weeds

All you need to do is spray lemon juice on the plants that you don't want in your garden, and they will die within a couple of days.
