We burned wormwood ashes and smeared them on the toes, but unfortunately too few people know about it, so let's take a look!
Wormwood, that is really common in our lives, especially in the countryside, many people will grow some in their own homes. For example, in my vegetable garden, a large patch of wormwood is planted every year, and during the Dragon Boat Festival, we will cut all the wormwood and put it at home to let it dry naturally. Usually, my mother would boil some water with wormwood to soak in the bath, because it has the effect of warming the meridians and dissipating cold and sterilization. If the chickens, ducks and geese at home have a cold, or have some abnormal breathing conditions due to cold, we will boil some water with wormwood to feed them, and the effect is quite good. In fact, wormwood is much more useful than that. When we burn wormwood to ashes, wormwood ash also has many wonderful uses. Today, I will share with you the wonderful use of wormwood and wormwood ash, let's find out together.
First of all, we need to take the fresh mugwort leaves to dry in the sun. This drying process is very important, be sure to wait until the moisture is about the same, and then put it in a cool and ventilated place to dry, so that the drying effect will be better. Once the wormwood is completely dry, we can start picking the leaves of the wormwood. After picking the appropriate amount of leaves, keep rubbing them in your hands until the leaves are rubbed together and form a small long strip.
The first clever thing is that we can take out a tray and not use the big one. After that, knead the dried wormwood into a ball and pour some toilet water on it. The main ingredient of toilet water is alcohol, which helps in burning. Then we use a lighter to light the mugwort leaves. Note that there will be no open flame when the mugwort leaf is lit, but it will smoke all the time. We can use this smoke to smoke it at home, and it would be good if there was smoke coming out, and we didn't have to worry about not burning. And the toilet water helps burning, put the burning wormwood in a place where there are many mosquitoes, such as under the sofa in the living room, under the bed in the room, etc. By the way, remember to close the door, an enclosed environment is more conducive to mosquito repellent. At the same time, we must also pay attention to safety, and do not let the fire burn and cause a fire. I hope this sharing is helpful to everyone!
The second wonderful use, wormwood, is a magical plant that not only has medicinal properties, but also has many practical wonderful uses. The unique smell produced by its burning can effectively repel mosquitoes while also eliminating odors in the bathroom. For the older generation of friends who live in the countryside, on days when there are no mosquito coils, they will light wormwood to repel mosquitoes in the yard or room, and the effect is very significant.
The third wonderful use of wormwood can also relieve foot odor. If you often suffer from foot odor or athlete's foot, then you can try wormwood ash to improve this problem. Dampen wormwood ash with water and apply to feet, especially between toes and soles, and allow a few minutes to rinse off. After applying it for a while, it can sometimes have a good effect on some people. In summer, the soles of some people's feet are particularly prone to sweating, and even produce a peculiar smell.
The fourth wonderful use, wormwood ash is also a kind of plant ash, but also a high-quality flower fertilizer. It not only improves soil structure and regulates pH, but is also rich in a variety of nutrients that provide the nutrients needed for plant growth. Applying wormwood ash directly to the plant's soil and mixing it well with the soil creates good environmental conditions for the growth and health of flowers and plants, thus promoting their strong growth.
The fifth trick is that wormwood ash can also be used to clean toilets. The toilet at home is used very frequently, so we need to brush it frequently. If you don't brush it for a long time, a lot of yellow dirt will stick to the inner wall of the toilet, and there will be an unpleasant odor. In fact, we can also use wormwood ash to clean the toilet, we only need to sprinkle the wormwood ash evenly around the inner wall of the toilet, and then use the toilet brush to brush the inner wall. After scrubbing, we can see that the yellow stains attached to the inner wall of the toilet bowl have been brushed clean, and the odor has also been removed, and the effect is very good.
In addition to being able to put it in the toilet to brush the toilet, we can also directly use it to wipe the kitchen utensils at home, such as the bottom of the pot that is yellow and black. We wet the bottom of the pot directly, and then rub the wormwood ash on the bottom of the pot and wipe the rough side of the scouring pad to wipe the darker areas on it.
Wormwood ash not only has medicinal value, but also has many practical uses, it can not only repel mosquitoes to alleviate the problem of foot odor, but also a high-quality flower fertilizer and cleaning tools, it can improve the soil structure, adjust the pH to provide nutrients for plant growth, and can also be used to clean the toilet and wipe the kitchenware, is a multi-functional practical item, worthy of our daily life to use and play its value.
