To Do with Cotton Balls

Scent the Room
Saturate a cotton ball with your favourite cologne and drop it into the vacuum cleaner bag. Now, as you vacuum, the scent will be expressed and gently permeate the room.
Fight Mildew
There are always hard-to-reach spots in the bathroom, usually around fixtures, where mildew may breed in the grout between tiles. Forget about becoming a contortionist to return the sparkle to those areas. Soak a few cotton balls in bleach and place them in those difficult spots. Leave them to work their magic for a few hours. When you remove them you’ll find your job has been done. Finish by rinsing with warm-water wash.
Deodorize the Refrigerator
Sometimes the refrigerator doesn’t smell fresh. Dampen a cotton ball with vanilla extract and place it on a shelf near the back of the fridge. You’ll find it acts as a deodorizer, offering its own pleasant scent.
Protect Little Fingers
Pad the ends of drawer runners with a cotton ball. This will prevent the drawer from closing completely and keep children from catching their fingers as the drawer slides shut.
Rescue Your Rubber Gloves
If your long, manicured nails (or long, jagged nails, as the case may be) sometimes puncture the fingertips of rubber dishwashing gloves here’s a solution you’ll appreciate. Push a cotton ball into the fingers of your rubber gloves. The soft barrier should prolong the gloves’ life and protect your fingernail from soapy water.
