I had no idea about lemon juice and ants... I will have to try this around the front of the house.
A good tip for cleaning and refreshing your garbarator is to toss a lemon down and turn it on. I usually use some of the zest and the juice for something I am cooking and then toss the rest down, and it immediately makes my sinks smell fresh and clean
To clean hands:
Rub your hands with a lemon wedge to remove the odor if you have stinky hands from handling fish, onions, chemicals, etc. Bonus: Lemon juice will smooth and soften your skin in the process.
Lemon is great for removing cherry stains!
Just cut a lemon in half and rub on the stain. We spilled canned cherries in the car and lemons totally removed it so there was no stain left!
