Household Tips

• No More Mosquitoes . . . Place a dryer sheet in your pocket. It will keep the mosquitoes away.
• Squirrel Away! To keep squirrels from eating your plants sprinkle your plants with cayenne pepper. The cayenne pepper doesn't hurt the plant and the squirrels won't come near it.
• Flexible vacuum . . . To get something out of a heat register or under the fridge add an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your vacuum. It will bend or flatten to get in narrow openings.
• Reducing Static Cling . . . Pin a small safety pin to the seam of your slip and you will not have a clingy skirt or dress. Same thing works with slacks that cling when wearing panty hose. Place pin in seam of slacks and -- ta da! -- static is gone.
