It would blow your mind if you knew how many things you could clean using baking soda. Yup, that little box of white powder that just sits in your fridge can do a lot more than just sitting in your fridge. So what the heck is this baking soda stuff anyway? It's a type of salt that's made by mixing two very safe and naturally occuring compounds together: sodium carbonate and carbon dioxide. It is so versatile that it has uses in cooking, cleaning, medicine, personal hygiene, and putting out grease fires—no big deal. So today, just for you, my dear, dear viewer, I've put together a list of 10 great cleaning uses for baking soda.
如果你知道用小蘇打可以清洗多少東西，你會大吃一驚。沒錯，待在你冰箱內那一小盒白色粉末可以做的事比只是待在冰箱還要多很多。所以這小蘇打到底是什麼玩意？它是由混合兩樣非常安全且自然形成的化合物所製成的一種鹽：碳酸鈉和二氧化碳。小蘇打用途多多，它可用在煮飯、打掃、醫藥、個人衛生，還有撲滅廚房火勢－－沒什麼啦。所以今天，僅獻給你，我親愛、親愛的觀眾，我列出十個超棒小蘇打清潔用法的清單。
Number 10: Scrub away scuff marks on your wall. Make a 50-50 paste of baking soda and water and find any scuff mark or crayon art on your painted wall, gently rub it in and wipe away. You'll see the marks are gone.
十：擦掉牆上的磨損痕跡。製作小蘇打和水比例各半的漿糊，然後找出油漆牆面上任何磨損印或蠟筆創作，輕輕將漿糊擦進表面然後抹去。你會看到痕跡消失了。
Number 9: Use it as an underarm deodorant. Simply apply a pinch under dry arms, and even the worst body odor will be trapped and dominated by baking soda.
九：把小蘇打當腋下除臭劑使用。只要塗一點點在乾的手臂下，就連最糟糕的體臭都能被小蘇打困住並控制。
Number 8: Clean and unclog even the smelliest sink. When baking soda is combined with vinegar, magic happens. And it can clean almost anything. Add a cup of baking soda to any drain, let it sit for an hour, then boil two cups of plain white vinegar and dump it down the drain. Run hot water, and your drain won't stink no more!
八：就連最難聞的水槽也能清理和疏通。小蘇打搭配醋，神奇的事就發生了。它可以清洗幾乎任何東西。加一杯小蘇打到任何排水管，讓它靜置一小時，接著煮兩杯白醋然後倒進排水管。打開熱水，你的排水管就再也不臭了!
Number 7: Clean your grout. I made a video on this a while back. Click over here if you wanna see it. Just take some baking soda, sprinkle it on a grout line, spray it with water, and scrub the grout clean, using a cleaning toothbrush or even using a regular toothbrush.
七：清理水泥縫。我前陣子做了部清水泥縫的影片。如果你想看的話就點這裡。只要拿一些小蘇打、灑在水泥縫上、噴水，然後把水泥縫擦乾淨，用清洗的牙刷或甚至用普通牙刷都可以。
Number 6: Add abrasion to any cleaning solution. When baking soda is mixed with a cleaning solution, it creates abrasion. And that can battle even your most powerful cleaning products like Vim or Comet.
六：添加摩擦洗淨力到任何清潔劑中。當小蘇打粉被和清潔劑混合時，它會創造出摩擦洗淨力。而那甚至能和你最強效的清潔用品(像 Vim 和 Comet)一較高下。
Number 5: Deodorize your kitty litter. Simply sprinkle some baking soda into the litter box every time you change it.
五：除去貓砂盆臭味。只要在每次更換貓砂時灑一些小蘇打進去貓砂盆就行了。
Number 4: Clean your non-self-cleaning oven. If your oven doesn't clean itself, consider spraying the inside of the oven with pure white vinegar and then sprinkling baking soda on top of the vinegar. Then let it sit for about 30 minutes, and grab a heavy-duty sponge or some fine steel wool and start scrubbing. You'll see that you don't need any cost at cleaning products to clean the inside of your oven. The baking soda and vinegar will do the trick.
四：清理無自動清洗功能的烤箱。如果你的烤箱不會清洗自己，考慮用白醋噴在烤箱內部，然後將小蘇打灑在醋上。接著靜置約三十分鐘，拿一塊強效清潔海綿或細鋼刷然後開始擦洗。你會看到你不需要花任何成本在清潔用品來清洗烤箱內部。小蘇打和醋就能奏效了。
Number 3: Wash build-up out of your hair. If you're a hair product junkie, try this trick every couple of weeks. Take a tablespoon of baking soda and add it to your shampoo. Massage it into your hair as you normally would and rinse it out. The baking soda scrubs out all of the gunk and clarifies your hair. The results are amazing.
三：清洗頭髮上積累的髒污。如果你是造型用品成癮者，每幾星期試試這招。拿一湯匙小蘇打粉然後加到洗髮精裡。像平常一樣把洗髮精按摩進你的頭髮，然後沖洗掉。小蘇打會搓洗出所有髒汙並洗淨你的頭髮。效果十分驚人。
Number 2: Deodorize your carpets. If you notice that there's that kind of "smell" to your house when you walk into it, it's probably because your carpets—which are like sponges by the way—are absorbing a whole bunch of dirt, dust, debris, and dead skin cells. If you take a box of baking soda and sprinkle it over your carpets, leave it for 30 minutes and then vacuum it up, your room will be deodorized. Your vacuum will also get a clean treatment as a bonus.
二：去除地毯臭味。如果你注意到在你走進家門時房子有一種「臭味」，那可能是因為你的地毯－－順帶一提，地毯就像海綿一樣－－在吸收一堆髒汙、灰塵、垃圾碎屑，還有死掉的皮膚細胞。如果你拿一盒小蘇打然後把它灑在你的地毯上，擺三十分鐘接著再把它吸起來，你的房間就會被除臭了。你的吸塵器還能被清理作為額外好處。
And here's my number one trick for using baking soda when it comes to cleaning. And this one, by the way, is something I employ literally every time I do the laundry—I absolutely love it. Baking soda is an amazing laundry booster. It helps brighten and deodorize clothing. The next time you do a load of laundry, add in a cup of baking soda and see if you notice the difference. I love this trick.
然後這裡是提到打掃時，我的第一名小蘇打妙招。這一個，順帶一提，是我真的每次洗衣服時都會用的－－我愛死了。小蘇打是很棒的洗衣加強劑。它幫助亮白和除去衣物臭味。下次你洗很多衣服時，加一杯小蘇打然後看看你是否注意到不同了。我愛這招。
