  Uses of pomelo peel

  Removing odors: Pomelo peel, like the peel of other citrus fruits, has a deodorizing effect. Placed in the refrigerator or in a newly renovated house, it can effectively remove odors and help freshen the air. Put pomelo peel into sneakers or leather shoes, and after three days the odor inside the shoes will also disappear completely.

  Cleaning: Put pomelo peel into water and boil for about 30 minutes. While pouring the boiled pomelo peel water into the drain holes in the home, scrub with a brush. This can not only remove the dirt around the drain holes, but also eliminate unpleasant odors. In addition, pomelo peel water can also be used to wipe wooden furniture, and it also has a very good cleaning effect. What is worth recommending is that the white pith just peeled from the pomelo has a strong adsorption capacity and ability to remove oil stains. Used to wash dishes, it can clean them thoroughly without dish soap.

  Exfoliating: Pomelo peel can effectively remove dead skin from the hands. You only need to rub your hands with pomelo peel to remove dead skin, then moisturize your hands with hand cream.

  Repelling insects: Place pomelo peel in the corners inside cabinets to prevent insects and ants, or put it in a rice container to prevent small insects. In addition, although placing pomelo peel in a wardrobe can repel insects, it cannot be used for one or two months like mothballs. It generally needs to be replaced after about 2 to 3 days. It is not very convenient.
