Coffee grounds are a versatile and eco-friendly resource that can be used in various ways both at home and in the garden. Here are some practical uses:
At Home
- Odor Neutralizer:
- Place dried coffee grounds in a bowl to absorb odors in your refrigerator, freezer, or closet.
- Rub on hands after chopping garlic or onions to eliminate lingering smells.
- Cleaning Agent:
- Use as a gentle abrasive to clean pots, pans, and sinks without scratching surfaces. Mix with a little dish soap to create a scrub for tough stains.
- Natural Dye:
- Brewed coffee grounds can be used to dye fabric, paper, or even wood for a rustic, brown tint.
- Exfoliant for Skin:
- Mix with coconut oil or honey to create a natural body or face scrub that helps exfoliate dead skin.
- Pest Deterrent:
- Sprinkle grounds around your home to deter ants and other pests.
