The Magic of Vinegar: 1000+ Uses

I've mentioned the amazing versatility of vinegar before. Today I'm going to share some of the vinegar tips that seemed interesting and give you some links to even more tips on this surprisingly useful household item.

Here are just a few of the tips:

  • Kill weeds and grass growing in unwanted places by pouring full-strength white distilled vinegar on them. This works especially well in crevices and cracks of walkways and driveways.
  • Prevent lint from clinging to clothes by adding 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar to the wash cycle.
  • Lighten body freckles (not facial freckles) by rubbing on full-strength white distilled vinegar.
  • Create an all-purpose window cleaner with a few ounces of white distilled vinegar in a quart of water.
  • Kill fleas by adding a little white distilled vinegar to your dog or cat’s drinking water.
  • Clean under arm stains - Soak stained shirts in vinegar for a few minutes and wash. (Thanks Cece!)


Here are some good sites where I found these tips. There are plenty more where these came from.
Now I need to go out and buy a big jug of vinegar! :)
