The broom often wears out due to improper care and cleaning.
In this article, we will tell you about the secrets of extending the life of a broom in the house.
How to extend the shelf life of a broom
To strengthen the integrity of the broom, take a bucket, fill it with hot water and add table salt.
Dip the broom into the prepared solution for a couple of minutes.
As a result, the twigs will begin to be elastic and in the coming months they will definitely not break.
Soaking a broom in boiling water softens the rods and activates the release of biologically active substances that strengthen the structure.
In addition, to make the broom for sweeping the floor last longer, you need to store it in a horizontal position.
Professionals believe that it is better to store a broom with the sweeping part up, placing it on the handle.
This position will help avoid bending of the rods.
A solution with table salt disinfects the broom.
The fact is that salt reduces the solubility of oxygen in water, so in highly salty waters it becomes difficult for microbes that need oxygen to live.
Salt can be used as a safe disinfectant detergent for all cleaning products.
This is especially true for brooms, which need to remove dirt that comes into contact with the floor and other surfaces in the house.
