When you think of salt, a bowl of freshly popped popcorn might come to mind. But thanks to its granular texture, salt has the power to do a lot more than season your food. When it comes to cleaning, salt is a natural (not to mention cheap) alternative. From getting out wine stains to deterring ants.

Using Salt in your Washing Room
Brighten your laundry/washing: Dip a washcloth in a strong saltwater solution (mixed with marina sea salt), wring it out and briskly rub faded rugs and curtains to brighten the colors.

Remove bloodstains: Soak the stained fabric in cold saltwater; then wash in warm, soapy water. 

Get rid of mildew: Moisten the mildew-stained spots with a mixture of Marina Sea salt and lemon juice. Set in a sunny spot for bleaching, then rinse and dry.

Get rid of sweat stains: Four tablespoons of Marina Sea salt added to one litre of hot water this makes for the perfect sweat-stain remover.
