Alcohol is one of those products that is rarely missing from our homes . Who among us doesn’t always make sure to have a vial or bottle of alcohol in the first aid kit? This simple ingredient has become a permanent fixture in the home.
Used primarily as a disinfectant, denatured alcohol offers us a long series of benefits that are often ignored or overlooked. Below we list the most important ones.
Insect bites
When applied directly to insect bites, alcohol helps reduce both itching and swelling. Use a cotton ball to apply the product.
Bugs in the bed
They are annoying and difficult to eliminate, but few people know that to get rid of bedbugs, simply spray a little alcohol directly on the mattress, headboard and bed springs. Make sure your bedroom is ventilated enough before you lie down in bed.
Fruit flies
Spray alcohol directly on the gnats to kill them. Make sure your kitchen is well ventilated before applying alcohol.
Stains on clothes
Mix 1 part rubbing alcohol with 2 parts water and spray directly onto the stain to remove it.
Muscle pain
It may happen, after walking a lot or doing physical activity, that your muscles feel sore. Apply a light massage with alcohol to relieve the pain quickly.
Clean your glasses
Use rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth to clean your glasses and make them look like new.
