Editor Reluctant Seahorse shared the cleaning hacks in a viral post.

The experienced cleaner revealed several ways to remove sticky residue from glass jars.

“You have several options,” she said.

“One: Soak in hot water with dish soap for about half an hour, then scrub with the exfoliating side of a sponge.”

A second method, she added, is to take a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

“If soaking and scrubbing with a regular sponge doesn’t work, scrub with a magic eraser after soaking,” she said.

A third technique is to trust Goo is gone.

She explained that although the product has “various names in different countries,” it is consistently reliable.

“It’s like an oily liquid that breaks down the adhesive better than soapy water,” she explained.

“You still need to scrub with the sponge or magic eraser.”

For a homemade solution, she shared a recipe for homemade Goo Gone.

“Mix three tablespoons of baking soda and two tablespoons of vegetable oil (or any oil, olive, coconut, etc.),” she said.

“Use a cloth to aggressively rub [the] mix on the surface and then rinse. By the way, this is my favorite option.

“Sincerely, a woman with many pots.”
