Old toothbrushes, which might look like just garbage, actually have a lot of useful purposes that not many people realize. You can connect two old toothbrushes to tackle some tricky tasks easily and affordably.
Cleaning Your Faucet
To clean your faucet, grab two old toothbrushes and tie them together using a rubber band. Dip the brushes in water, then open them up and scrub the faucet. The space around the faucet can be hard to reach, but by tying two brushes together it becomes much simpler for you.
Cracking Hard Nuts
Breaking hard-shelled nuts by hand can be tough and exhausting. To make this easier, use old toothbrushes! First cut the bristles short; then tie two brushes facing each other with a rubber band and place a piece of folded paper between them. Now you have a handy tool to crack open nuts like pistachios or peanuts.
Cleaning Your Bike Chain
Bicycle chains often get covered in oil and dirt which adds weight and shortens their lifespan. To clean them up, tape two old toothbrushes together so that their bristles face each other. Then put the bike chain between these brushes while rotating the pedals; this makes cleaning super easy!
Cleaning Your Keyboard
Computer keyboards collect dust over time. Just take an old toothbrush to brush off the keyboard; it will help remove dust quickly.
Cleaning a Comb
A hairbrush gets dirty from sweat, dirt, or dandruff easily! To clean it up, use an old toothbrush dipped in some water mixed with soap; brush along its teeth to get rid of stains fast.
Scrubbing Toilet Corners
The toilet has tight spots that are hard to clean with regular tools. Heat up the handle of an old toothbrush over fire until it’s soft enough to bend into an L shape! Add some toilet cleaner on it then start scrubbing those tricky corners—this makes cleaning way easier!
Cleansing Cup Bottoms
The bottom of cups is often tough to scrub especially if they have narrow openings! Burn the back part of an old brush head slightly then bend it at 90 degrees—this turns your brush into a perfect tool for reaching deep inside cups or bottles!
