Four household uses of rice you never knew before| TheNewsTribe.com

Rice is a staple food in various regions but the residents of even those regions may not be aware of these uses of rice. Rice have many uses other than eating.

Some of these uses are,

Prevent silver from rusting

Although sooner or later you’ll need to polish your silver pieces, you can make the task easier by keeping rust to a minimum. Protect your silver from rust-causing moisture by placing a small bowl of rice in the cabinet where you keep your silver. The rice will absorb any moisture in the air and thus prevent rusting from the time being.

Clean glass bottles

Vases with narrow necks are often extremely difficult to clean. Pour a handful of uncooked rice into the vase or bottle that’s giving you trouble and swirl the grains around with a little bit of soap and water. The grains will scrub away dirt and grime that gets trapped in the bottom of the bottle.

Protect tools from rusting

Rust forms when metals are exposed to oxygen and moisture for a long time. Keep your tools safe by adding a few scoops of uncooked rice to your toolbox. The rice will absorb moisture in the air, helping to keep your tools dry and rust-free.

Save wet electronics

Accidentally get your phone wet? Don’t panic: Uncooked rice can save it. Remove the battery, then place all of the wet pieces into a bowl of uncooked rice, submerging them completely. Leave overnight. The rice will soak up moisture that can damage your device. While tempting, don’t tackle your wet device with a hair dryer. The heat can melt metal components in your phone, doing more damage than the water.
