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.
擦鞋或银器的有用法宝
要去参加一次工作面试，鞋油用光了，不用担心。早餐吃完的香蕉皮不要扔掉。把里面线状物去掉，使用香蕉皮内部擦拭鞋子。擦拭完毕后，用软布或纸巾把鞋面擦干净。对付银器也是同样的方法。一些人说，香蕉皮还能应用于皮革上。如果想安全起见，在一小块皮革上先试验下。

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.
保持家居植物常绿
家居植物放久了，上面的灰尘会很多，还会枯掉。现在，你无须浇水，无须使灰尘飞扬，只需用香蕉擦拭植物叶子即可。之后擦掉叶子表面的泥状物质，你的植物就会看上去非常光亮。

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’s high potassium content somewhat removes this skin problem. The bonus? It’s not even painful.
修复疣斑
白醋与乳霜能有效去除看不见的疼痛疣斑。如果上述方法无法奏效，香蕉能派上用场。把些许香蕉捣烂，敷于疣斑区域。你还能用香蕉皮的内侧擦皮肤。许多人说香蕉丰富的钾元素是解决皮肤问题的关键。还有什么好处呢？去除疣斑并无疼痛。

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)

蚜虫侵袭你的玫瑰丛成了你头痛的问题。拿些香蕉皮，埋入植物茎部一二尺周围的地方。那些讨厌的蚜虫就不会再来了。

   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’ll see the results. Your dentist will be overwhelmed when she sees your sparkly whites.
亮白牙齿
香蕉是黄色，它竟能美白黄诟的牙齿。每天用香蕉皮以打圈方式擦洗牙齿两三分钟以上。几个星期后，成果即会显现。看到如此闪亮的白牙，牙医们一定会头痛不已。

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.
使烤肉变嫩
我们已经说道香蕉和香蕉皮的功效，也可用香蕉叶。牛肉或猪肉太硬么？试试把它们包于香蕉叶内。这样肉质会非常嫩。这个方法也能用于鱼肉。烹饪时，加入一根熟香蕉也是有用的。这样可以使味道鲜美。

Birds And Butterflies Magnet
Does your garden seem lonely without bees and butterflies buzzing around? Put out some overripe bananas with a few holes on a platform above head level. This will lure the insects to your garden. Just make sure it’s elevated, since this can also attract wasps, bees and little critters.

With these clever methods, the banana will never again be left unused in the fruit bowl. Then again, you can always use it for a banana split or maybe to make a monkey very happy.
鸟与蝴蝶的天然吸铁石
没有蜜蜂和蝴蝶的花园太单调了吗？在比人头高的平台上放些扎了洞的过熟香蕉。昆虫会频繁光顾你的花园的。但先确定你是希望得到这种效果的，不然黄蜂啊，蜜蜂啊，牲口啊都可能会来了。

香蕉的这些功效在水果中是非常有用的。当然你也可以做一个“香蕉船”甜点或者愉悦猴子。
