Bi-Carb Soda

[icyfroth]

I used some on my kitchen benchtop as per my neighbour's recommendation. Came up a treat!

Then I used it on the floor. It lifted a lot of grime off I didn't even realise was there!

Didn't like using it in the bathroom though. I took heaps off rinsing to get the white residue off.

I like the microfibre sponges for the bathroom.

bi carb is a life saver when house training puppies

my lil Bella would have accidents or deliberates on the carpet, sprinkle over bi carb (a fair amount to cover the wet patch), leave to dry and brush up the now dried excess with a dustpan and broom and use a vaccum to get rid of the last of it

no odour, no stains....easy peasy~!

Bi carb in the vegies depletes the vitamin content.

That's what I thought - wasn't sure though

Chinese use it to tenderise meat - it works but it

just starts the putrefaction process though

Someone told me just this morning that a paste of bi-carb and water put on (and left on) a tick will make it fall off by itself and stop any itching.

Yep.   Also good for mozzie bites

Great for teeth whitening...I use twice a week for lovely pearly whites

I have a friend who uses it as deodorant.
Apply with a brush or powder puff.
Swears by it as shampoo as well...
I wouldn't be game 😄
