How to clean the inside of bottles
On many occasions, we have endless bottles accumulated at home that we want to reuse but we don’t really know how we can clean them inside and leave them impeccable to give them that new use. If you also find yourself in this situation, at FoxWiki we help you by showing you a very simple trick with which you can clean the inside of the bottles easily. Take note!
Steps to follow:
1
Once you have collected the bottles that you need to clean inside, the first thing you will have to do is place them under running tap water to rinse them and remove any dirt or residue they may have. Once this is done, dry the bottle with a clean cloth.

Next, we show you a cleaning trick which will help you leave the inside of the bottles impeccable and free of stains. First, you will need to gather the following ingredients: warm water, detergent, and rice. Once ready, you must fill the bottle in question with warm water until it covers 3/4 of the way, add a little detergent and, then, a small spoonful of raw rice. If the bottle is large, add a larger amount of each of the ingredients.
3
Now, cap the bottle with its stopper or cork if you still have it, and if not, place some adhesive tape on the mouthpiece so that it is completely covered. Shake the bottle vigorously from top to bottom so that the rice is stirred little by little. Be especially careful with bottles that are more fragile, since if the movements are too sudden you could fracture it.
4
After a few minutes, the bottle should be clean inside; so it’s time to rinse it well to remove all the rice grains and soapy water. Then, let the bottle dry with the air without being covered.
5
In the event that the bottle has a crusty layer or very difficult stains to take out, try to pour inside it a white vinegar and warm water solution in equal parts and leave it like that for hours or even rest overnight. The next day, when you rinse the bottle it should be completely clean.
6
As you see, with this trick you can clean the inside of the bottles and then reuse them for whatever you want, although a good option is to use them to make some crafts and create beautiful or useful objects for your home.
