4 Reasons Not To Throw Away Your Used Teabags
Did you know that teabags can clean your kitchen?

We've all reused a teabag to make a second cup of tea (hey, it saves you a bit of money). But did you know you could use those teabags as an all-natural home care ingredient? Here are a few ways to recycle those bags in the kitchen after you've had a hot cuppa.
Â
1. Deodorize funky corners in the kitchen
Tea can act as a natural deodorizer. Cut up your used teabags, and pour the loose leaves into a container to dry. Scatter these in potentially stinky spots around the house to neutralize the smell, such as the bottom of your trash bin in the kitchen.
Â
2. Make an all-natural pesticide
Tea can protect your houseplants from fungal disease (and the caffeine also helps repel insects). Make a weak brew from your used teabags, let cool, and spritz with a sprayer onto the leaves and stems.
Â
3. Use it to "soap up" in the kitchen
Have you just deboned a fish or crushed garlic? Get a used teabag and rub it over your hands to deodorize them, before moving on to real soap.
Â
4. De-grease your pots and pans
Throw your greasy pots and pans into a basin of warm water with a bunch of teabags. The solution will help loosen the grime and grease before you wash them.
