Tip of the Day: Keep Alka Seltzer with your cleaning supplies


Take a look at all the things that Alka Seltzer can help with around the house!

A glass of water with two Alka Seltzer tablets dropped in, with a box of Alka Seltzer behind it.I had heard of using Alka Seltzer as a cleaning agent before, but I have only recently found resources that explain exactly how you do it. To be honest, I never looked. I simply used actual cleaning supplies, and I have never kept the heart burn reliever on hand.

After reading about all the things that Alka Seltzer do, though, I may have to rethink that. You can clean toilets, jewelry, and vases or cruets; unclog drains; soothe insect bites; and temporarily reduce nicotine withdrawals. Check out this and this for more information. If you keep Alka Seltzer on hand, you might just move it over to the cleaning cabinet. If you don't keep it in the house, you might want to grab a box next time you're at the store. I know I will.
