The refrigerator gives off unpleasant smells

To neutralize bad smells, we usually use baking soda, but   ground coffee can also do this job   .

To use the absorbency, simply pour the ground coffee into a bowl and place it in the refrigerator. To ensure that the effects last for a long time, do not hesitate   to replace it every month.

Additionally, if you have some leftover coffee grounds, you can use them following the same procedure. The only difference is that unlike ground coffee, you have to replace it every 15 days. And in case you don’t know, coffee grounds can also act as a natural fertilizer.

More surprising uses for coffee

Regardless of its form, ground, ground or consumed, coffee can be used in surprising ways. Here are some of them:

Use coffee to unclog pipes

If you notice that your sink is clogged, an easy way to fix the problem is to use coffee grounds. Pour it into the pipes by adding 1 liter of   boiling water  .

Drain in the sink

Clean kitchen surfaces with coffee grounds

Hobs, stovetops, or dishes are all surfaces that you can clean with a cloth soaked in coffee grounds. You can perform this action without fear of possible damage to the affected surfaces. In fact, unlike baking powder, coffee grounds remain relatively abrasive.

Use coffee as an air purifier

In addition to being particularly pleasant for the senses, coffee is known for its ability to absorb bad odors. Therefore, it is logical that you can make an air purifier out of it. Take   a sock that you no longer use   and place a handful or two of coffee beans in it. Close the sock with an elastic band and place it in the space of your choice.

Use coffee as a hand cleaner

If your hands smell bad after handling garlic or other foods that leave a strong odor, consider coffee grounds. As with any other soap, scrub   your hands with the coffee residue   and you will have to say goodbye to all the unpleasant smells.

Get rid of ants with coffee grounds

Coffee grounds are one of the best natural ant repellents and can be a great solution if you want to get rid of these harmless insects without harming them. If you want to see them and keep them away, spread coffee grounds at the entrances to your home. Pests move away as soon as they come near.

In addition to its unique taste, coffee has numerous benefits that allow it to be used in different ways. Which, on the one hand, will make our everyday lives easier.
