      Thinking of sharing with fellow KSP methods and products that I have tried and tested and finds it useful.


      Fellow KSP, if you do have any good recommendations or methods to make our daily chores easier, please share too :celebrate:

      For a start.

      I use coke to soak and wash the pigs stomach. Coke can get rid of the strong smell.

          Kiasimom,


          Interesting thread πŸ˜„

          My mom taught me this trick of putting cloves (a type of spice) in the kitchen cabinet and also in the cabinet under the sink so as to 'drive away' the cockroaches.

          So I just scatter a few in all my kitchen cabinets. We (my mom and I) do not have any major problems with roaches so far :xedfingers:

            Hi autumnbronze,

            That's amazing. I will try this method as I hate cockroaches 😞

              Yes, autumnbronze, I use that for the kitchen cabinets, and pandan leaves for the car coz DH doesn't like the smell of cloves except in his tau you bak πŸ˜‰

              I also use expired tealeaves in a tea bag and loop them over the bar in my closet or in my drawers to get rid of smell.

                This is a useful thread.

                Unused ones? Thanks, I may try this.

                I use oil to remove traces of the sticky bits left behind by stickers.

                    I used "used" tealeaves for my eyebag treatment.


                    I will store the used teabag in the fridge so that it will be cooling when I use it for eyebag treatment.

                        The Chinese term for cloves is ding xiang [丁香]
