Who Knew???

1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturatethe bandage with vodka.

The stuff dissolves adhesive.



2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash clean.


The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew.



3. To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean cloth dampened with vodka.

The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs.


4. Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka and letting your safety razor blade
soak in the alcohol after shaving.

The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.



5. Spray vodka on wine stains, scrub with a brush, and then blot dry.



6. Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as an astringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores.



7. Add a jigger of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo.

The alcohol cleanses the scalp,removes toxins from hair, and stimulates the growth of healthy hair.



8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle with vodka and spray bees or wasps to kill them.



9 Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water into a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze for a slushy, refreshing ice pack for aches, pain or black eyes.



10. Fill a clean, used mayonnaise jar with freshly packed lavender flowers, fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly and set in the sun for three days.
Strain liquid through a coffee filter, then apply the tincture to aches and pains.



11. To relieve a fever, use a washcloth to rub vodka on your chest and back as a liniment.



12. To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.



13 Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.



14. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the urushiol oil from your skin.



15. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth.

Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain.



And silly me! I used to drink the stuff!

No I thought it was good use for the Vodka, I stick to the Kicking Chicken, Or Wild Turkey, but I had some cheap Vodka I got out of a house I remodeled and cleaned out and used it to kill bugs, entertainment with the kill and you know the bug goes out with a good buzz
