2. Clean The Grates Of Your Stove Burners With Ammonia!
The stove burner’s grates tend to be a magnet for dirt and grease, and that is perfectly understandable: whenever your frying pan drips a bit, it all gathers around the grates of your stove burners, thus making them very difficult to clean. As a matter of fact, most of us would rather have the grates replaced than spending time, money and energy cleaning them, but if you want to be a responsible homeowner and reduce your carbon footprint (while saving some money at the same time!), then you should definitely consider using some ammonia to clean them! Here is a tutorial that will show you just how easy it is to do that.
