Here are 15 genius cleaning hacks to make your life easier
#1. . Clean your ear pods with a little amount of warm liquid or a dry tooth brush.
Ear pods need to be cleaned. Don’t believe people if they tell you otherwise. Just put some warm water on your finger tip, yes that’s what we mean by ‘little’ and rub the ear buds. You could use rubbing alcohol as well, although rubbing with a dry brush will do the job too.
#2. Grate raw potato to clean your grater.
The grater is another tool that’s hard to clean, especially, if you grated cheese with it, because that refuses to go away. We use potato because its hardness along with the oxalic acid helps in bidding goodbye to sticky cheese.
#3. Remove stains on cloth with a chalk
Chalk has superb absorbing qualities. All you have to do is rub the stain with chalk.

Pour some acetone on a microfiber cloth and apply it on the stain, and it should vanish within seconds.
