You usually find hydrogen peroxide in the first-aid or your first-aid kit at home but there are so many extra uses for hydrogen peroxide. Aside from just taking care of wounds and scrapes and burns so stick around and I'll describe you the applications of hydrogen peroxide against infection.

If you have a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in your first-aid kit so what's the deal with hydrogen peroxide and why does it work. So well you normally find in your first-aid kit because it's great at cleaning your wound so you put a little bit on the wound. It helps bubble up any of that bacteria or dirt right to the surface and it keeps things clean helping you not get an infection. So think about that science and kind of apply it to cleaning it disinfects as well but it does so many other things too. 

Now, something to know about hydrogen peroxide remains in a brown bottle at all times until just before you're going to use it. When it's in this brown bottle it is protected and the minute that it's exposed to light like the rest of us it becomes unstable not like the rest of us. So you want to make sure that it's always locked up until you need it.

Let's start things off in the application that most of you guys know about already hydrogen peroxide as a stain remover. It's a great alternative to bleach except its not chlorine bleach and you use it for first aid. So I feel a lot better about applications of hydrogen peroxide against infection. The way I like to use hydrogen peroxide is in a solution of two parts hydrogen peroxide and then one part dish soap mix that all together blot up your steam. First, apply this solution to your stain and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes and then launder it. As usual, this solution helps remove stains and you can also use it on carpet stains or upholstery stains. 

To make a solution you can use one liter or one quart of water and they're about the same too that you're going to add a cup hydrogen peroxide. There's your solution dump in your product that you want to wash. Leave it there for a few minutes give it a good rinse, give it the old patent dry, and that way your product will be ready for you.

To eat no bacteria and no pesticides we get asked a lot about how to clean grout and recently we had a little bit of a garbage spill at the house and some garbage juice got into a grout line and there was a really quick solution for that using hydrogen peroxide. So I will share that with you guys all you need to do is mix two parts baking soda to 1 part hydrogen peroxide. Get out a cleaning toothbrush give it a good stir. Apply that paste to the affected grout line leave it for a few minutes give it a good scrub with that. Cleaning toothbrush rinse well because the baking soda is going to leave a fine gritty kind of feel behind. So you got to get rid of that. But once that's gone your grout is gonna look amazing. 

A lot of people use bleach to clean their toilet bowls and here's a quick distinction bleach that can help whiten stains. Well if you don't want to use bleach you can sub in hydrogen peroxide. All you need to do is pour about a cup to a half cup whatever you got lying around in the toilet bowl. Leave it there for a couple of hours then get your toilet bowl brush to give it a really good swish. This will do is help break down stains and get rid of any lingering bacteria.

In the laundry room, hydrogen peroxide can be used in place of using bleach. You can use hydrogen peroxide but frankly, I'd argue that hydrogen peroxide performs even better not only does it white and white but new moms who asked me all the time how to deal with baby stains or cloth diaper stains. Here's all you have to do take a cup of hydrogen peroxide add it to the bleach compartment in your machine or just add it to your wash as you normally would with bleach. Let your machine do its thing hydrogen peroxide has this amazing ability especially with protein stains to break the bond between the dirt and the material and that way your steam will loosen up. It'll be able to wash out much easier and you will have better-looking laundry. 

If you've ever looked at your toothbrush and got in a case of the loo then this is what you need to do fill a cup halfway with hydrogen peroxide and take your toothbrush and dunk it in there. Leave it for about 30 minutes or so the hydrogen peroxide will help get rid of any bacteria on your toothbrush making it smell better. If you ever sniff your toothbrush just take my word on it. It will smell better and it will also be free of bacteria which will help keep you healthier especially with folding.

If you're looking for a quick easy disinfectant in your kitchen look no further than the friendly brown bottle of hydrogen peroxide. Now quick note here you want to make sure that you test it in a hidden area on your kitchen surface before you use it as it can bleach things and causes discoloration. So if you want to use it in a kitchen to disinfect an area say you've got some meat on the counter you want to give it a good cleaning afterward. Here's what you need to do take some hydrogen peroxide and spray it onto the surface or you can just sort of sprinkle it out from the bottle on the surface. Leave it for about 10 minutes that will give the hydrogen peroxide the ability to do its thing. Then you want to wipe the surface clean and then if you want to you can give it a good final rinse and the surface will be clean and most bacteria-free. 

One of my favorite things about doing all of this clean my space stuff is that I get to share with you guys all of the great applications for household items like for example hydrogen peroxide that you would find in your first-aid kit we talked about baking soda, rubbing alcohol, dish soap, vinegar, lemon salt all kinds of stuff.
