Sanitize Containers Using Vinegar

You loathe the thought of reusing mayonnaise, peanut butter, or mustard since you have to scrape it out of the jar. For that matter, what could be more difficult than removing debris from a sticky vase, decanter, or container? What you could do is the following: To clean an object, half-fill it with vinegar and half-fill it with warm, soapy water, and leave it for 10-15 minutes. In either case, close the container and shake it vigorously; alternatively, scrape off any leftover residue with a bottle brush before thoroughly rinsing the container.

Is there a presence of moths or other insects in your pantry or cabinet? In a small basin, combine 1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar with a few drops of liquid dish detergent. It’s best to leave it in there for a week because the bugs will be drawn to it and will drown if they fall into the bowl. Afterwards, empty the shelves and scrub the interior with dishwashing soap or two cups of baking soda in one gallon (1 liter) of water, as desired. It is recommended that you discard all wheat items (including bread, pasta, flour, and so on), and that you thoroughly clean all canned foods before reusing them.
