Re: Household hints
Sam, when I saw the topic heading I wasn't going to click on it. Thought it was going to be about more efficient ways to clean and become a second Martha Stewart.
I have used some of your ideas and they are great. Re: newspapers - definitely no weeds, and a good way to recycle them. I bought the fancy black plastic and just want you to know I have a very healthy crop of weeds. Back to paper for me.
Bare douses weeds with vinegar. Went to one of the gardening club meetings and the presenter uses vinegar also. Says the vinegar works faster and kills some weeds that the chemicals do not.
Ants - I put out whole cloves. Once I put them out where they are they never come back again. I think they do not like the scent.
Reheating refrigerator breads etc - I also was told to keep the power at 10, and they will not turn into bricks.
Thanks for posting the list.
