Whoa, had no clue about this!

Clogged drains can be a nightmare, but a dishwasher pod might be your unexpected hero. Drop one pod into the clogged drain, followed by boiling water. Let it sit for several minutes, then flush with more boiling water. The pod’s enzymes and cleaning agents can help break down grease and debris.

Stubborn grease on pots and pans? Fill the pot or pan with hot water and drop in a dishwasher pod. Let it soak for about 30 minutes, then scrub as usual. The grease will come off much more easily.

Trash cans can accumulate foul odors over time. To freshen them up, fill the can with warm water and drop in a dishwasher pod. Let it soak for an hour or so, then scrub and rinse thoroughly. The odors will vanish, leaving your trash can smelling fresh.
