What is the X you use for the Y?
-
I use a mosquito repellent to kill ants.
What other products do you use for what purposes?
The boring one I do most often is shopping bags (non-reusable) for trash can liners.
One I've heard of but not done is wasp spray as pepper spray /people repellant.

I use sarcasm to kill my friendships
I'm pretty sure that's the intended use of sarcasm.

Book holder as an ipad stand.
I bought one of those kits for a Kindle Fire hat had the charging stand with the case with the magnets so you could drop the tablet on and charge it,
the tablet died long ago but I still use the charging stand (unpowered) as a phone and book stand XD

You don't just put a mug on the stove like a normal person?
Sometimes. When I don't wear my contacts
-
I use weed for the temporary existential release from this horrifying reality.
It's one of the less harmful ways to do so!

I like to use the plastic wrappers that toilet rolls are sold in for waste bin liners. I don't know about other places, or even manufacturers, but the ones I buy come in a wrapper that doesn't have any holes except the one I tear to get at the rolls in the first place. All I need to do is widen that a bit once the rolls have run out and it's ready for any bin or bucket I might be using.
I'm also using an old shredder bin as a waste bin because the shredder part died. Decided I might as well hang on to the lower part. Perfectly usable receptacle.
It's rubbish, but that only makes it more apt!

Who Gives A Crap.
I'm not being snarky. That's a bamboo sourced toilet paper that doesn't use plastic and ships right to your door. I like to bring them up a lot because I like the product and the service and the environmental impact.

Vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice all make good cleaning agents.
Just not at the same time. If you use vinegar and baking soda together, you'll effectively neutralize both.
-
I use advertisements to tell me which products and brands to avoid
Being the most financially successful product *could* mean they excel at ripping people off the most. See HP and their printers.

Its good as you don't corrode or destroy any layers while cleaning

FYI: Simple Green is a cleaner and melts bugs in real-time (ngl, kinda morbid, watching them contort in obvious agony) — with the added bonus of it being prohibitive to the same returning to the area anytime soon. (Pro-tip, I've found it to still be super effective at dilutions of 1:5-10, and a 5gal jug goes for ~$30.)
Oh, and PSA: many common ant species found in homes are "opportunistic" nesters that will split off from the main community when it suffers sufficient losses... Thereby multiplying the fronts on which your battle is fought as well as streamlining their troop production & resistance.
Just sayin'. Do your research FIRST.wrote on last edited by [email protected]I'm in Kerala and I won't import any chemicals.
May search for a regional alternative.... -

May search for a regional alternative....FWIW, it's about as close to "all natural" as US corps feasibly get (see link), but I totally hear ya.

In principle, I'm all for that. In practice, I'm on a shoestring budget and when serviceable toilet paper can be had for half the price of a bamboo roll, I have to take the cheaper option.

I use daily contacts for weeks
I use microwave as a kettle
My mate used daily contacts for weeks until one ripped in half when he tried to take it out and got stuck in his eye and he couldn’t see so he asked me to help take it out but I couldn’t.
Luckily, my partner could.
Be careful!

wrote on last edited by [email protected]that might actually be a war crime because I think wasp spray is a neurotoxin
Which on reflection makes me like it more.
