Clean spills and deodorize your microwave

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • coffee mug
  • water
  • lemon
  • soapy washcloth or sponge
  • dry clean dishcloth
  1. Step 1

    Fill a coffee mug with water and a few slices of lemon; put it in the middle of the microwave's tray. Cook on a high setting for about three minutes, then turn off the microwave.

  2. Step 2

    Leave the mug inside for another three minutes or so. The steam will soften food spills, and the hot lemon will get rid of those lingering odors.

  3. Step 3

    Open the door and take out the mug. Wipe down the walls with warm, soapy water to remove residue and food. Then rinse and dry with a clean dishcloth.
