Helpful Household Hints

Here are some helpful household hints.  KITCHEN: Keep a large bottle of 3% hydrogen peroxide under the kitchen sink, it has multiple uses.  Sanitize plastic cutting boards, wipe off dirty can opener blades and kill bacteria in the kitchen sink drain.  BATHROOM: You can clean the bathroom sink, bathtub and shower for just pennies with the cheapest hair shampoo.  Use a plastic scrubber to apply straight from the bottle, then rinse off.  Do this after showering and the gunk will not build up.  LAUNDRY: For under a quarter you can make a pre-wash stain remover for washable clothes.  Mix 1/3- cup nonsudsing clear ammonia, 1/3- cup regular dishwashing liquid and 1/3- cup water. Pour and mix in a clearly labeled spray bottle.  Apply to stains and allow to sit for 5 minutes, then wash immediately.  De Hart Plumbing, serving Manhattan Kansas, Junction City Kansas and Wamego Kansas.
