Mix ½ cup lemon juice with a bucket of warm water for a gentle floor cleaner. Works great on ceramic tile or linoleum—just avoid natural stone (it’s too acidic).
11. Remove Rust Stains
Sprinkle salt over a rust stain (on metal or fabric), then pour lemon juice on top. Let it sit in the sun for a few hours, then rinse. The combination is a natural rust-busting powerhouse.
12. Refrigerator Deodorizer
Soak a cotton ball in lemon juice and place it in your fridge. It neutralizes odors and keeps your fridge smelling clean and fresh.
13. Coffee Pot Cleaner
Add lemon slices and a few tablespoons of baking soda to your coffee pot, fill with hot water, and let it soak for an hour. Swirl and rinse to clean out built-up oils and stains.
14. Remove Soap Scum
Apply lemon juice directly to shower doors or bathtub edges where soap scum builds up. Let it sit for a few minutes, then wipe with a damp sponge.
