The lemon is a multifunctional fruit. Not only is it a great asset for cooking, but it's also an excellent cleaning tool thanks to the acidity in its juice and the grease-cutting oil in its skin. Thus, there are a number of jobs around the house where a simple lemon will come in handy. In the video below, Melissa Maker, creator of the popular YouTube channel "Clean My Space," gives users ten situations in which a lemon can be used for cleaning.
