Shoe Or Silverware Shiner
You just ran out of shoe shine just when you need it for a job interview. Not to worry. When you’re finished with your breakfast banana, don’t throw out the peel. Remove the stringy material from the inside, then rub the soft inside of the skin all over your shoes. When done, buff it up with a soft cloth or paper towel (More tips on how to shine shoes). The same technique can be used for silverware. Some even claim that it works on leather. Test in on a small area of the leather first, though, just to be on the safe side.
擦鞋或銀器的有用法寶
要去參加一次工作面試，鞋油用光了，不用擔心。早餐吃完的香蕉皮不要扔掉。把裏面線狀物去掉，使用香蕉皮內部擦拭鞋子。擦拭完畢後，用軟布或紙巾把鞋面擦乾淨。對付銀器也是同樣的方法。一些人說，香蕉皮還能應用於皮革上。如果想安全起見，在一小塊皮革上先試驗下。

Houseplants Maintenance
Neglected houseplants can become dusty and worn out overtime. Instead of spraying water on them and spreading the dirt more, just use the banana peel to wipe the leaves down. Wipe the soft fleshy skin all over the green leaf surface to remove the gunk. You’ll be left with shiny and healthy-looking plants.
保持家居植物常綠
家居植物放久了，上面的灰塵會很多，還會枯掉。現在，你無須澆水，無須使灰塵飛揚，只需用香蕉擦拭植物葉子即可。之後擦掉葉子表面的泥狀物質，你的植物就會看上去非常光亮。

Wart Remedy
White vinegar and creams can effectively dry out a painful and unsightly wart, but when these remedies are not available, a banana will work. Mash up some and apply all over the affected area. You can also use the peel and rub its inside against your skin. Many say this plant?ˉs high potassium content somewhat removes this skin problem. The bonus? It?ˉs not even painful.

Aphids Solution
Aphids that attack your rose bushes can be a headache. Cut up a bunch of banana peels, then bury them an inch or two around the plant’s base. The pesky suckers will soon say goodbye. A tip: never use the whole fruit, because animals and critters will dig them up and eat them. (For aphid extermination guide, read how to get rid of aphids)
解決蚜蟲之道
蚜蟲侵襲你的玫瑰叢成了你頭痛的問題。拿些香蕉皮，埋入植物莖部一二尺周圍的地方。那些討厭的蚜蟲就不會再來了。
提示：不要用整個水果，動物和牲畜會把它們挖出然後吃掉的。

Teeth Whitener
Bananas are yellow, but surprisingly enough, they can help whiten your stained yellowish teeth. Rub the peel in circular motions all over your teeth everyday for at least two to three minutes. In a few weeks or months you?ˉll see the results. Your dentist will be overwhelmed when she sees your sparkly whites.

鳥與蝴蝶的天然吸鐵石
沒有蜜蜂和蝴蝶的花園太單調了嗎？在比人頭高的平臺上放些紮了洞的過熟香蕉。昆蟲會頻繁光顧你的花園的。但先確定你是希望得到這種效果的，不然黃蜂啊，蜜蜂啊，牲口啊都可能會來了。

香蕉的這些功效在水果中是非常有用的。當然你也可以做一個“香蕉船”甜點或者愉悅猴子。

Tenderize Roast Meat
After using the fruit and the peel, you can now use the leaves. If you’re tired of eating tough beef or pork for dinner, then try wrapping them in banana leaves to make them tender. This also works for fish (as seen in many Asian delicacies). While cooking, adding a ripe banana also helps. It also adds a delicious sweet flavor.
使烤肉變嫩
我們已經說道香蕉和香蕉皮的功效，也可用香蕉葉。牛肉或豬肉太硬麼？試試把它們包於香蕉葉內。這樣肉質會非常嫩。這個方法也能用於魚肉。烹飪時，加入一根熟香蕉也是有用的。這樣可以使味道鮮美。
