    If you cover the tips of bananas with foil, it will slow down the release of ethylene, and, consequently, the bananas will ripen more slowly, too.

    Mix two cups of baking soda and borax with half a glass of salt and vinegar. Leave it in the fridge for 24 hours. Always store them in a closed container.

    Put a few pieces of lemon or half a glass of vinegar into a bowl of water. Heat it for about four minutes. The steaming water will slowly, but very effectively, melt the dirt and grease. You will easily remove it with a cloth.

    Lids and caps often fly all over the inside of the dishwasher. You can prevent that by putting them all into a bag, in much the same way as we do while doing the laundry.
