Black tea bags, when cooled and applied to sunburnt skin, offer relief thanks to their tannic acid content, which cools and promotes healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For small burns, apply a cold, used black tea bag to the area. The tannins help soothe pain and reduce inflammation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Green tea is full of antioxidants. Placing a cooled used bag on a wart for 15 minutes twice daily may help it shrink and fall off within days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Throw a few used tea bags into a sink full of greasy dishes. The natural compounds help break down grime, making cleanup easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Steeped tea mixed with vinegar and citrus peels makes a gentle, effective spray for unwanted garden weeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Used tea bags or loose leaves can be composted or buried near plant roots as a natural fertilizer \u2014 especially loved by roses and ferns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
