Vinegar, baking soda and salt. If you add rubbing alcohol to that list (and maybe hydrogen peroxide) there is almost no cleaning task in your home that you can't tackle. So let's take a look at a few more cleaning problems that can be solved with these cheap, simple, miracle products.

Hint 1: Clean Cloudy Glasses
If you use your dishwasher regularly you have almost certainly noticed the phenomenon of cloudy glassware. There always seems to be a secret when it comes to having sparkly and smear-free drinking glasses. Here is an easy tip to let you in on that secret.
Fill a bowl with water and some white vinegar. Let your drinking glasses soak in the mixture for about fifteen minutes. Remove them and rinse. You should no longer have cloudy glasses in your kitchen.
Hint 2: Cleaning Greasy Kitchenware with Baking Soda
Greasy pots and pans can make doing the dishes a night-mare. But there is always an easy way to get things done.
Sprinkle baking soda on greasy kitchenware. Add some dish soap and rub the grease away. Baking soda is ever so slightly abrasive, but won't damage non-stick surfaces like a scouring pad would. Then you can finish washing and rinsing them as you normally would. Works just as well on plates and flatware.
'Go Green' Hint: Clean Wood Utensils With Lime
Wood utensils can become easily dried out and splinter when you use a lot of soap on them. That is so because they are made of wood.
It is better to use natural cleaners to sanitize them. Limes and lemons are great options, as the juice will help to eliminate bacteria and won't dry out the wood as much as regular soap would. If you need a little abrasion try adding salt when you scrub them.
