Straight vinegar removes scale. If you don't want to remove your shower head wind a rubber band on the pipe, pour vinegar into a sturdy plastic bag then secure with rubber band. Presto. A lot easier than taking your plumbing apart.

Growing a garlic bulb is easier with baby food jars. The opening is the perfect size and you don't have to use toothpicks. Also take the outer skin off for more shoots to form. Eating the garlic greens like chives in the mild form. Enjoy 😊

We put everything in ziplocks so if there are bugs, we haven't seen them. However, if you get bugs in your kitchen, they will invade anything anything made of flour and it takes years to get rid of them.

Does putting flour in freezer and then removing it to put in canister-does it make flour last longer? I have never heard of this. If you know more things please share

Drill holes in the bottom of the tires, otherwise they will collect rainwater and become a perfect mosquito breeding ground...

[@leeward2472]

The cabinet beside the refrigerator might be a Fire Hazard. A few inches should be left on each side and the back of big appliances, in order that air can circulating around the big appliances, so they do not overheat. Also, refrigerator coils should be cleaned by a professional; should you hear a ticking sound, you are past the time for cleaning and it should be done, immediately. I learned the hard way, when my double-door refrigerator stopped working.
