Did you know? Part 2

  • To keep mosquitoes away while you’re working outside, put a dryer sheet in your pocket.
  • Sprinkle cayenne pepper on your plants to keep squirrels and rabbits away. You won’t harm the environment.
  • To vacuum under your fridge attach an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your vacuum hose — it can be bent or flattened to get in narrow openings.
  • Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup, fill with hot water. Dump out the hot water, but don’t dry the cup. Your peanut butter, molasses or other sticky ingredient will come out easily.
  • Use a chalkboard eraser to remove fog from inside your car windows — it’s more effective than a cloth.
  • Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It’s cheaper than shaving cream and is a great way to use up the conditioner you bought but didn’t like in your hair.
  • To get rid of pesky fruit flies, take a small glass, fill it 1/2 cup with Apple Cider Vinegar and 2 drops of dish washing liquid; mix well. The flies will be drawn to the cup and gone forever.
  • Kill ants safely — without chemicals. Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants. They eat it, take it ‘home,’ can’t digest it so it kills them. It may take a week or so, but it works, and it’s not dangerous for children or pets.
