Household Cleaning Tips

We all have a lot of bottles. And, they are in all shapes and sizes. Bottles with small necks are hard to clean.

Fill 1/3 of the bottle with warm, soapy water. Add some gravel. Then, shake and stir the bottle. Pour out the contents and rinse out the bottle with clean, warm water. If you want to save the gravel, rinse it off to remove dirt and gunk.

In addition to bottles in your house, it works on vases, and even hummingbird feeders.
