If you’ve been tossing your used tea bags in the trash, you’re missing out on some surprisingly powerful benefits. These little herbal pouches still hold value long after your tea time is over! Here’s how you can put them to good use:
1. Soothe Puffy Eyes
Chilled, used tea bags—especially green or black tea—can help reduce puffiness and dark circles. Just place them over your closed eyes for 10–15 minutes. The caffeine and antioxidants help constrict blood vessels and refresh tired eyes.
2. Feed Your Plants
Tea is rich in nutrients that can benefit your garden. Bury used tea bags near the roots of plants or place them in compost. They enrich the soil, improve drainage, and even deter pests.
3. Natural Deodorizer
Used (and dried) tea bags absorb odors like a charm. Pop them into shoes, refrigerators, trash bins, or closets to neutralize smells naturally. You can even add a few drops of essential oil to boost the scent.
4. Freshen Up Carpets and Rugs
