10 Useful ways To Protect The BANANA Peel From Waste


1. Relieve Rashes and Itches

If you’ve got a bug bite, poison ivy rashes, psoriasis patches, you can take your banana peels and rub them into your skin. If you experience burning, which psoriasis often causes, or itching from allergic reactions and bug bites, place the banana peel into the fridge until it becomes cool. Place the chilled peel onto your skin for instant relief.

2. Eat the Peel but

If you want to eat a banana peel for an extra boost of nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants, make sure to boil the peel for 10 minutes. Then toss the peel into your juicer or blender with other fruits in order to mask any bitterness. Always make sure to clean and remove any pesticides from the peel, which goes the same for any fruit you eat.

3. Polish Leather and Silver

Rub the inside of your banana peel onto your leather shoes, jackets, or even furniture and then buff it with strokes from a soft cloth. Also mix the peel with water to use it as a silver shiner and cleaner.

4. Fertilize Tomato Plants

Wrap a banana peel around your tomato seedlings when you first plant them. As the tomato plant grows, it will absorb the nutrients from the peel throughout the season. 

5. Feed Animals

Throw your banana peel into a blender or chop it up and mix it into feed for chickens, pigs, rabbits, and other livestock. On a regular basis, it’s not ideal for domesticated pets’ digestive systems, such as cats and dogs, but the occasional banana chunk is a great way to get in essential vitamins.

6. Make Banana Vinegar

Banana peels have a bitter flavor with an underlying sugary taste to them, which is what makes it a great source for home-made vinegar to use for salads, or any recipe that calls for vinegar.  Place 2 pounds of sliced-up banana peels into 4 cups of water and bring it to a boil. Remove peels from the pot and squeeze their juices into the pot using a cheesecloth or similar material.Add four more cups of water with a cup and a half of sugar and bring it to a boil. Drop the temperature and stir for 15 minutes. Grab a canning jar and pool the liquid in along with one half teaspoon of baker’s yeast, and screw the lid onto it and place it in a cool place for seven days. Open the jar and filter out and remove any sediment, then add one cup of vinegar and leave it for four weeks.Then it’s ready to be thrown in a pot over heat for 10 minutes of pasteurization. Wash the jar thoroughly and place contents back into the jar in a dark cool place until you’re ready to use it. The  entire process takes two months, but it’s natural and completely resourceful.

7. Tenderize Meat

Take a ripe banana peel and cover your boneless, skinless cuts of meat in order to keep it from toughening or drying out during baking or even frying.

8. Feed Indoor Plants

Stick a banana peel in a large jar of water in a one part banana to five parts water ratio and after it’s soaked the nutrients out of the peel, fertilize your indoor plants with the health-enhanced water.

9. Attract Butterflies and Birds

By placing your peels on a raised platform, such as a birdhouse or tree branch, butterflies and birds will be attracted to the sweetness of the peel. However, it’s important to note bees and wasps also like the peel’s sweet contents, so it’s best to keep it away from your house or children.

10. Use In Compost

If you leave a banana peel on the counter, you’ll notice they usually break down faster than your other fruits, which is exactly why you should toss them into your compost. They’ll add plenty of nutrients into the soil for vegetable and flower gardens.
