Don't Throw away Old Toothbrush

Postby Vehlijanta » 19 Apr 2023, 01:11

We throw away old toothbrush after we cannot use to brush our teeth but these can be used after that too for cleaning of our house, kitchen, and the places where we cannot clean with our hands. We can even change its shape by heating it with a candle and moving it to our desired location and this way we will save money.

Is this something you have done yourself @Vehlijanta? What type of cleaning have you actually done with an old toothbrush?

My old tooth brushes help me to brush my hair. That means I save money on hair brush.

Yes, we often do that. Using an old toothbrush to wash/clean the gaps in the engine, clean the stove, etc.

Dear Fergal, I make another use of old toothbrushes (like friend @Vehlijanta, I don't throw them away): there is my washing-machine filter, impossible to get properly clean without using a brush that results very tiny (at least, it works to clean the filters we find in the kind of washing-machines sold in my country: they are in plastic, so no danger to scratch).

Old toothbrushes can be used to scrub shoes when washing. And they are very effective instead of you going to buy special brushes for shoes.

Very good idea 8-) . Until now, I used them to clean the filter of my washing-machine, but I was struggling to find some stuff for free to clean my gym shoes. Since now, old toothbrushes will make the job :D

I use them for cleaning hard to reach areas, like the grooves in the dish drainer in my kitchen. I've also used them to paint with. You can put paint in the tooth brush, then run your thumb across the bristles splatter the paint. It creates and interesting spray effect.

An excellent idea, it can be use in so many places as we can even use it to clean bike chain with petrol. Same technique we can use in so many places and so many things.

Old toothbrushes can be used to clean jewellery and electronic parts. You can even sell them to those that repair electrical appliances and small power generators.

You can use your old toothbrush to clean the body of your pets instead of going to buy a special pet wiper. It is cost effective.

You can use old toothbrushes to apply paint in tight areas instead if buying that hand painting brush.

It's a very old practice in Indian households and has been going on for generations. Old toothbrush can be used for fine cleaning of jewelry and other items. They are convenient to clean narrow corners. I use them on regular basis.

Old toothbrushes are useful for creating texture in arts and crafts projects, like stippling or splattering paint.
