A recent study showed that flushing a toilet with the lid up can spray millions of bacteria like E. coli into the air, which can land on your toothbrush. To keep your brush healthy and clean, store it upright inside your medicine cabinet, not on the bathroom countertop. You can also disinfect your toothbrush periodically by microwaving it on high for 15 seconds.

After your next party, don't dump leftover sips of white wine down the drain. Consolidate the wine into a spray bottle, and use it to keep your kitchen countertops clean. The white wine will help remove rust stains and mineral deposits, and the residual alcohol will kill harmful germs and bacteria. You can also use white wine to clean any red wine that may have spilled on your carpet.

Old nail polish can have multiple uses around the house. Use clear nail polish to stop fabric from fraying at the edges. Colorful nail polish can be used to mark keys for the home, with drops of different colors indicating which key works on which door. And if you have a button that is constantly falling off a certain article of clothing, prevent it by dropping clear nail polish on top of the button where it is threaded.
