1.Kill pests in your garden
Not only humans love Coca-Cola! Pesky bugs and insects are fans of the soda drink too. Hence Coca-Cola is an effective pest control method for your garden. To rid yourself of plant munching slugs, snails and what-not, pour a small bowl of Coca-Cola and place it near your garden or flowerbeds. The smell will attract these crawling bugs to the bowl and the drink’s acidity will kill them. Good riddance.
- Clean your pans
Coca-Cola is also useful in the kitchen, especially on burnt pans. For any pan with burnt on messes, pour a can of Coke into the pan and simmer. The mess should easily wipe away. You can also soak kettles and other kitchen items in Coca-Cola to remove scale and build up. Remember to leave some for drinking after the hard work! -
Clean bugs from your windshield
Another way Coca-Cola can aid in your car care is by removing bugs and gunk from your windshield. Soak a clean cloth in coke, then rub it all across your windshield. Just be careful not to get any on your paint job. -
Remove rust from your car
Coca-Cola is also useful when removing rust. The simplest method is to dip crumpled tinfoil in Coca-Cola, then give the item a scrub and you should be rust free. -
Loosen rusty bolts
Similarly, use Coca-Cola to loosen up a rusty bolt. Simply unscrew the bolt half a turn and pour on Coca-Cola. Let it sit, then give the metal a wipe. The bolt and screws will be one hundred percent in no time. -
Remove stains from your fabric
Surprisingly, Coca-Cola is incredibly helpful when removing stains from clothing and fabric. Coke will easily remove grease stains, as well as blood spots. Remember that Coca-Cola itself is brown, so stains on light fabrics might be better removed another way.

Coca-Cola can also help you avoid a major hair disaster. If you have gum stuck in your hair, dip the gum into a small bowl of Coke and let it sit for a few minutes. The Coca-Cola breaks down the gum, allowing you to wipe it off.
10.Fade unwanted hair dye
Similarly, if you made a mistake with your hair dye, Coca-Cola comes to the rescue. It’s probably best to get in the shower first, then pour Diet Coke over your hair. Let the soda sit for a few minutes, then wash your hair like normal. This method is effective in removing temporary hair dyes, but will likely only fade professionally applied dyes.

Clean your toilet
Coca-Cola can also help you clean elsewhere in the house. To easily clean a toilet, pour Coca-Cola all around the bowl and let it sit. There’s no need to scrub, simply flush and your toilet should be sparkling clean. -

Coca-Cola is also a surprising way to add a little extra life to some flowering plants. Particularly with azaleas and gardenias, adding a small amount of Coca-Cola to the soil can deliver nutrients your plant may be low on.
