    • @zachsimsphoto5344
      @zachsimsphoto5344 6 років тому +328

      To answer the question as how. The rack is grounded to the inner wall. So the voltage produced by the microwaves is not allowed to build up instead of the opposite happening when you say isolate a fork in the middle of the microwave.

      lzeph yeah apparently if it weren't for domestic cats, we would be overrun with rats, with 1 for every sq. foot. Cats are in the top 5 of predators with the highest success in catching prey, with well fed cats catching even more rodents, as they do it for sport. Domestic cats really are a blessing!

      Mint is VERY invasive and will overtake a garden, or even a yard full of grass. Therefore, it should only be planted in a container, and by itself.

    • @littleloulou1
      @littleloulou1 6 років тому +1

      I have had success filling a spray bottle with distilled water and adding two tsp of peppermint extract from my kitchen. It repels rodent, ants and scorpions. I also use Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Lavender Air Freshener with it's natural oils, works wonders to keep both scorpions and centipedes away at night (a must in Texas) as well as other pests. The best thing about using natural oils is that you can split the bottle into two and add distilled water and the potency is just as effective; making it much cheaper and safer to repel desert pests.

    I LOVE these DIY dups for ASTV products!!
    You are brilliant. Please keep doing these.
    I only miss the catch phrase, "but wait, there's more!"
    I can think of one seemingly useless item that was once featured on Shark Tank, a plastic rectangular pan that fit a package of ramen noodles inside. Shockingly, the inventor ended up selling boatloads of these, mostly appealing to college students and millennials, from which he made a fortune. Seriously.
    Still, it's more utilitarian than a Pet Rock.
    I have already been using a mini CorningWare casserole dish (it has both glass & plastic lids) to place the dry noodles inside, which fit perfectly. One could pour hot water from a tea kettle, electric kettle, or automatic coffee pot maker, and cover the container while the ramen cooked. Using tinfoil would work just as well.
    I have glass containers with vented lids, from the 99¢ store, that would do the trick.
    Even easier is using the plastic rectangular container that lunch meat is sold in. Add water, nuke it with the lid unsecured, and the ramen is cooked.
    I make my own seasoning packets, because the prepackaged kind have MSG ingredients. I buy the little plastic ziploc baggies found in the craft & pill holder sections of the big box store to make individual serving sizes.
    I toss in some chopped fresh/canned veggies/herbs, or tiny shrimp, shredded cheese, leftovers, use broth or milk instead of water, scramble in an egg & bacon bits, etc. I've heard there are a multitude of ramen recipes online.

    If youve ever worked in a woodshop, you'll know that screws can heat up with most removal processes as long as the tool is under pressure, hence why you should attempt to avoid over-pressurization.

    The twist tie drain unclogger can be reused as well. Because the small slits are all cut on a downward angle, simply holding it at the tip and wiping it off will clean out the residue.

    For worn screws, I tend to go up a few sizes on the screwdriver head so it has a little bit more of a grip. It works almost every time, much better than the rubber band trick that has never fully worked for me.

    What I use in the bathtub drain is some metal kitchen scrubby (mine is by Choreboy and I chose copper; you can also get it a little cheaper in stainless steel (it's NOT steelwool which rusts)), cut a piece you can double over and stuff it into the drain (we use a flat rubber disk to stop up the bathtub when someone wants a bath, goes right over the scrubby piece). I use a long-nose plyer to pick the scubby piece out of the drain when the water begins to sluggishly drain, replace it with a new piece. It catches the hair and any string/threads/lint but lets the dead skin and whatever else comes off a body go down the drain and I don't have to touch the stuff.

    For mice and other rodents you can use glue traps. You can buy them with no harmful products and depending on how strong the glue is, you can remove the mice or rats.

    Here's another 'hack' for the eggs... if you don't have a ventilated lid for a coffee mug, make one by taking a Pringles lid and poking/cutting a small hole in it. Now, snap it over the top of the coffee mug and microwave as usual.
    Adjust the size of the lid as needed -- a nut can cover for larger mugs will work fine.

    You're also forgetting that you could add a little wet dirt or sand to the head of the screwdriver caking it which gives it more surface area to loosen tough screws. This is useful if you don't have rubber bands or tape lying around. Dirt or sand is available around your house plus it's free.
