Hannah shows how to squeeze more use out of your citrus peels! Subscribe 🔔 [ Ссылка ]

Fire starters:
Dried citrus peels make an excellent fire starter as they have a high oil content.
1. Dry peels by placing on top of a fireplace or in the oven on a low heat.
2. Store them in a jar until ready to use.
3. Nestle a few peels amongst the kindling and it’ll get the fire roaring!

Cleaning spray:
Citrus oil is a natural solvent so it’s great at getting rid of grease.
1. Add chopped peels to a glass jar and cover with white vinegar.
2. Seal with a lid and leave for a couple of weeks for the oils to diffuse into the vinegar.
3. Strain the mixture into a spray bottle and pop the peels into the compost.

The added bonus? Your home will smell delicious!
