A cleaning hack using denture tablets to remove limescale and stains from household items has gone viral on social media.
For those thinking you need to toss out your tarnished pots and plates before Christmas - a new hack might just save you some cash. A cleaning expert claims her 'magic' technique will get your old stuff sparkling - and requires very little effort and money. Applauded by followers on the famed Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips Facebook group, the woman's hack is believed to work on other items in your house too.
So you're probably wondering, 'What is this miraculous cleaner?' and 'Do I need to splurge or search far and wide for it?' As it turns out, the solution is incredibly humble: denture-cleaning tablets, reports the Mirror. The clever cleaner shared the tip on Facebook. She wrote: 'I was sorting out some items to take to a charity shop. I always wash things first. I found a bowl that used to have a plant pot in it.' She explained how the local water full of limescale left its mark, clearly evident on the bowl. However: 'This area has a lot of limescale in the water, as you can see from the bowl. A denture-cleaning tablet removed it. I don't wear dentures, but also use the tablets to soak net curtains in before washing. Very useful.' The post included striking 'before' and 'after' images showcasing the magic at work; the once-marked bowl was left impeccable and stain-free in the latter picture. One commenter, impressed by the results, exclaimed: 'Wow very impressed.' While another lauded her with 'Great job.' The tip seemed to resonate with many, who mentioned they use denture tablets for more than just crockery, with one commenter divulging, 'I use these all the time to get stains out of cups and dishes I even put one down the loo before I go to bed at night,' echoing the sentiment of a multi-purpose cleaning hack.

A second added their own cleaning tip, 'I drop them down the toilet and leave overnight also keeps the bowl clean'
