Vinegar is a natural cleaner that can be used in many applications.

ALL AROUND THE HOUSE

To remove stickers that have been used to "decorate" furniture and other surfaces, moisten with vinegar. Let sit for at least ten minutes, then remove.
For persistent room odours, place a bowl of vinegar in the room overnight.
For spills on carpet, use a sponge or cloth to soak up as much liquid as possible. Then spray with a mixture of half vinegar, half water. Let stand for about two minutes, then blot with towel or sponge. Repeat as needed.
For more persistent stains, use a mixture of 1 teaspoon vinegar, 1 teaspoon liquid dish soap, and 1 cup warm water. Proceed as suggested above. When finished cleaning, dry using a hairdryer set on low.
To clean windows, spray with half vinegar, half water. Wipe clean with either newspapers or cloth.
To clean silver, pewter, copper, or brass, dissolve 1 teaspoon salt in one cup vinegar. Add flour to create a paste (1/4 cup or more). Apply the paste to the metal item, and let stand for at least fifteen minutes. Rinse with warm water and polish with a soft cloth.
No-wax floors can be cleaned with a solution of 1 cup vinegar per gallon of water for a shinier surface.
To clean wood paneling, use a mixture of 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup vinegar, and 2 cups warm water. Apply to paneling with a soft cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

IN THE BATHROOM

To remove soap build-up from faucets, clean with a mixture of 1 part salt to four parts vinegar.
Spray shower walls and shower curtain with vinegar to help prevent mildew.

IN THE KITCHEN

To keep ants away, spray vinegar along doorways, windowsills, countertops - anywhere that ants are likely to appear. If you find an ant trail (path that ants use repeatedly), clean it with vinegar.
To remove odours from the sink or garbage disposal, pour in a cup or more vinegar. Do not rinse out again for at least an hour.
For a clogged drain, first pour in 1/2 cup baking soda. Then add an equal amount of vinegar. When the mixture finishes bubbling, rinse with warm water. (Note: some garbage disposals do not react well to this cleaning method; check with the manufacturer first.)
Wipe your hands with vinegar after chopping. It will remove strong scents like onion and garlic, as well as stains from fruit juices.
To clean wooden cutting boards, wipe with vinegar.
Remove strong odours. Rinse jars with a half and half mixture of vinegar and water to remove garlic or other strong odours. Boil water with several spoons of vinegar to remove the smell of burnt food from your kitchen.
Vinegar is an excellent cleaner for all kitchen surfaces - counters, refrigerators, stovetops.
To clean your microwave oven, put a microwave-safe bowl of 1/2 cup vinegar and 1 cup water in the oven, and cook long enough to boil. In addition to removing any lingering odours, this will loosen any baked-on food from the microwave's walls.
To remove coffee or tea stains from china, clean with a mixture of vinegar and salt.

IN THE LAUNDRY

To keep colours from running in the wash, soak in vinegar before washing.
To decrease lint on clothing, add 1/2 cup vinegar to the rinse cycle.
Many persistent stains can be removed with vinegar: coffee, chocolate, ketchup, jam, cola, wine. Gently rub stain with vinegar, then wash.

PET CARE

To keep cats off windowsills or other surfaces, spray with vinegar. This will also keep them from scratching upholstery (spray an unnoticeable area of the fabric first to make sure the vinegar doesn't cause a stain.)
To keep dogs from scratching their ears, clean with a soft cloth dipped in diluted vinegar.
If your dog should have a run-in with a skunk, vinegar will take care of the smell better than even tomato juice. Using vinegar diluted 50% with water, rub the dog's fur. Rinse with warm water. Repeat as needed.
