2. Kill weeds and unwanted grass on walks and driveways by spraying vinegar
3. To remove crayon stains from leather sofa,put baking soda on damp cloth and rub it lightly.
4.while filling pillows with cotton,add camphor to them. this will keep the pillows cool in summer and avoid breeding of insects inside during monsoon.
