Ash: a natural household cleaner
Clean the glass of your wood-burning stove or insert using ash. Ash has powerful degreasing properties, allowing you to clean without leaving streaks.
You can also give a new lease of life to your silverware or copper items.
Finally, you can create a homemade natural laundry detergent by filtering ash with boiling water.
Ash: the gardener’s friend
Ash is a great natural fertiliser for the garden or plants. Sprinkling ash at the base of plants will provide minerals necessary for their growth.
Another tip: you can also add ash directly to your compost to enrich it and speed up composting.
Finally, ash is a natural repellent against slugs and snails that invade the garden. It will keep these pests away from your plants.
