This fruit’s antibacterial properties can be used to disinfect a variety of household surfaces.

To prepare: Peel a lemon in a bowl, and pour white vinegar over the peel. The next day, add some water and shake well.

2. Disinfecting the chopping board

Although it is impossible to see with your eyes, the chopping board in the kitchen is one of the aspects of the home that contains the most bacteria.

You can utilize it without exposing yourself to the dangers that these germs carry by making use of the lemon’s antimicrobial function.

You don’t need any special preparation for this, just use lemon juice to clean your chopping board properly before use.

3. Natural deodorant

This fruit’s penetrating scent is perfect for removing smells that have built up in the house or small places like closets and refrigerators.

To prepare: Peel some lemons in a pot and add some water. Put it on the site for a few minutes. Once it gets hot, bring it down, and left it cool, you are good to go.

You can also spray the liquid using a spray bottle (which is the correct method to combat body odour)
