Foil tricks are a simple and effective way to solve everyday household problems. Here are seven of the best foil tricks you should try:
1. Dryer – Softer laundry without fabric softener
To soften your laundry in the dryer, you can roll a piece of aluminum foil into a ball and throw it in the dryer. The aluminum helps reduce static and ensures soft laundry without the need for chemical fabric softeners.
2. Dishwasher – Shiny dishes without residue
Put a small piece of aluminum foil crumpled up on the bottom of your dishwasher to remove stubborn limescale or water stains from your dishes. The foil acts as a kind of “scouring agent” that helps remove stains while improving the washing result.
3. Oven – Better cleaning with aluminum foil
Cover the bottom of your oven with aluminum foil to protect it from stains caused by food or liquids dripping out. Therefore, you don’t have to do a lot of cleaning of the oven after baking.
4. Cookware – Clean pots and pans faster
