I’m a pro cleaner – these are three ways I use leftover lemons to clean my kitchen

CLEANING hacks lover Chantel Mila recently shared how she uses leftover lemons in her kitchen to keep it shining.

She says there’s no need for pricey products full of chemicals, just use this citrus fruit instead.

The Melbourne mum of two shared on Instagram some of the genius ways she uses the fruit.

Her first tip is to pop any leftover lemon into your daily dishwasher cycle.

She says that the citric acid helps banish limescale and “leaves your dishes sparkling!”

The cleaning whizz’s next tip is to put some salt onto used lemons, then simply wipe it all over your sink to give it a brand new shine.

Her final way to reuse the citrus fruit is to mix roughly 30 grams on lemon juice and 60 grams of baking soda together.

Pour this solution down your drains to remove any nasty smells.

The lemon lover say this trick can get rid of odours for weeks, and you wont have to spend any money on fancy products.

Keen kitchen cleaners loved the simple hacks: Lemon’s are one of the best things nature has given us!” One said.

Another had another use for the fruit: “These are awesome! I use half a lemon in water in the microwave to clean it. It softens the gunk to wipe down and leaves a lovely smell!”

While a third suggested freezing leftover lemons to use for cleaning later if you don’t need them right away.

“I’m so excited to get even more use out of my lemons now!” Another commented.
