How can we use zeolite in the household – now for more readers:
Zeolite can be used in the home as a natural dehumidifier. It can be placed in a bowl and placed in rooms where moisture is a problem, such as bathrooms or basements. It can also be used for water treatment by adding it to drinking water to remove harmful substances. It can also be used for cleaning, using it in powder form as a natural cleaning agent . Regularly wipe down wooden cutting boards . Zeolite removes odors, as well as mold and other contaminants that easily settle on them and form even when wiped down thoroughly.
It can also be used to remove dog urine stains by applying it to the affected area and then rinsing it off. In the kitchen, zeolite can also be used to keep vegetables fresher longer by placing it in a bowl and placing the vegetables on top. Or even lightly pickling it. We currently have sweet potatoes with a layer of zeolite.
Zeolite can also be used as an odor adsorber (yes, you read that right! Adsorber, not absorber, because we don't want the smell to escape again... and zeolite does this job excellently) in the refrigerator. Simply place zeolite in a small bowl and place it in the refrigerator. Zeolite has the ability to bind unpleasant odors through its porous structure and adsorption properties. It's a natural and safe alternative to chemical products and can also be used to clean the refrigerator. Sprinkle zeolite powder into the drawers every now and then. It absorbs the moisture that occasionally builds up, as well as any harmful substances that arise when fruit waits patiently until it's used.
As mentioned above, zeolite has the ability to absorb moisture and bind mold and toxins through its adsorbent properties. By placing a bowl of zeolite in the refrigerator, you can reduce humidity and prevent the formation of mold and mildew stains on walls and other surfaces in the refrigerator. It is therefore a natural and safe alternative to chemical cleaning products.
Regardless, it's important to regularly clean your refrigerator and remove expired food to prevent the growth of mold and other contaminants. Of course.
