The humble, no-frills bottle of vinegar in your kitchen isn’t just a convenient salad dressing, it’s an effective household cleaning agent. Here, 10 practical (and surprising!) uses for the acidic wonder.
1. Keep your morning cup of coffee fresh. Mix two cups of water with one cup of undiluted white vinegar. Run it through your coffee maker and repeat the process two to three times before brewing a fresh pot.
2. Disinfect household sponges. Soak sponges in undiluted white vinegar overnight, and let air-dry before reuse.
3. Dissolve crayon marks from the walls. Moisten a toothbrush with undiluted white vinegar, lightly scrub the scribble and voila—your walls no longer resemble giant pages out of your kid’s coloring book.

4. Eliminate hard-water rings in flower vases. Pour undiluted white vinegar slightly past the dirty line. Cover the opening with a cloth, swish the liquid around and let it sit overnight. Dump, and rinse with warm water to remove any remaining remnants.
5. Prevent germaphalaba from happening on your cutting board. Dampen a clean cloth with undiluted white vinegar and wipe the board down after each use.
6. Make a quick substitute for gum remover. Scrape off as much of the wad as you can from the fabric (e.g. pants, carpet, etc.). Heat up undiluted white vinegar in a microwave-safe container. Soak the head of a toothbrush in the solution, and scrub at the remaining gum until it’s gone.
7 . When your scissor blades get sticky or grimy, don’t use water to wash them off; you’re far more likely to rust the fastener that holds the blades together — or the blades themselves — than get them clean. Instead, wipe down the blades with a cloth dipped in vinegar, and then dry it off with a rag or dish towel.
8. Do away with the gunk on chrome hardware. Soak a few stacked paper towels in vinegar, ring them out and wrap around the faucet, handles or shower head for 10 minutes. Remove the wrap, and let dry.9. Salvage a shirt with mild sweat stains. Turn the shirt inside out and soak the perspiration-stained areas with undiluted white vinegar. Let it sit for 15 minutes, and then gently scrub with a toothbrush. Wash the shirt in a normal rinse cycle using warm water to remove any excess build-up.
10. Keep the car windshield and windows frost-free. Moisten a cloth or a sponge with undiluted white vinegar and wipe down to prevent ice from forming overnight.
