Placing orange peels in the fridge can have several useful benefits that many people are unaware of:
1. Eliminate odors in the fridge
Orange peels have a natural fragrance, and the essential oils from the peel can help eliminate unpleasant smells in the fridge. You can place the peels in a small dish or cloth bag and keep them in the fridge to make the air inside fresher.
2. Clean the fridge
Orange peels have antibacterial and mild disinfectant properties, which can help clean areas inside the fridge. You can rub the peels on shelves or the walls of the fridge to clean and neutralize odors.
3. Keep food fresh longer
Placing a few pieces of orange peel in the fridge can help maintain moisture for certain types of food, like fruits or vegetables, preventing them from wilting. However, this effect may vary depending on the food.
