Like when you have to go out and your favorite jacket&rsquo;s zipper comes off and you have nothing else to wear.

It&rsquo;s a sinking sensation.\n\n\n\n</p><h2 class='\"wp-block-heading\"'>Use a\u00a0fork to\u00a0fix zipper tabs that have come off\n\n\n\n</h2><p>We can&rsquo;t function without zippers.

As long as the zip is not distorted and the zipper tab is not broken, there is a simple trick to fix this.\n\n\n\n</p><div class='\"wp-block-image\"'><figure class='\"aligncenter' size-full><img fetchpriority='\"high\"' decoding='\"async\"' width='\"728\"' height='\"473\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2022%5C/01%5C/67b0455e3b95e028284472499a.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' class='\"wp-image-30138\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/67b0455e3b95e028284472499a.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n\n\n\n<h2 class='\"wp-block-heading\"'>To get rid of bad breath, gargle with salt water\n\n\n\n</h2><p>Salt water is an excellent bacteria slayer and can be used to combat bacteria in the mouth. It&rsquo;s inexpensive and easily accessible, and you can use it as a quick fix if you&rsquo;re out and about and have bad breath. Gargle with a sachet or half a teaspoon of salt dissolved in a glass of tepid water. It can also improve oral health and relieve respiratory tract irritation as a side effect.\n\n\n\n</p><div class='\"wp-block-image\"'><figure class='\"aligncenter' size-full><img decoding='\"async\"' width='\"728\"' height='\"382\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2022%5C/01%5C/79f66555a1a149b176cfb34481.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' class='\"wp-image-30140\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/79f66555a1a149b176cfb34481.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n\n\n\n<h2 class='\"wp-block-heading\"'>Remove a\u00a0stubborn splinter with craft glue\n\n\n\n</h2><p>If you have a painful splinter that won\u2019t tweeze out, reach for some glue. Make sure it\u2019s a good brand of craft glue, the white one, that tends to dry and peel off from the skin. Pour a generous amount where the splinter is and wait for it to dry.

Zap dandruff by first shampooing with any shampoo you have. Then, dilute mouthwash with water, at least in a 50:50 ratio, and pour it on your scalp. Massage a little and let it stay for a few minutes before rinsing it off. Afterward, condition the hair because the alcohol in the mouthwash can dry out your strands.\n\n\n\n</p><p>Remember that this is more of a one-time hack than an everyday one because mouthwash can dry out hair.\n\n\n\n</p><div class='\"wp-block-image\"'><figure class='\"aligncenter' size-full><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' width='\"728\"' height='\"510\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2022%5C/01%5C/1a9aed55fdaf5215824083a5d7.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' class='\"wp-image-30147\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1a9aed55fdaf5215824083a5d7.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n\n\n\n<h2 class='\"wp-block-heading\"'>Tighten loose screws by\u00a0applying nail polish on\u00a0the threads\n\n\n\n</h2><p>Sometimes, screws just don\u2019t want to stay put. An easy hack, to make sure they do stay in place, is to paint the grooves of the screw with nail polish.

A potato mixed with baking soda or dish soap can be used to remove rust from tools. Slice a potato, dunk it in baking soda or dish soap to increase the abrasive action, and rub the rusted areas.

Of course, like all hacks, it\u2019s best to test out what effect mayo might have on your walls by trying out a small patch. If the paint does not react to the mayonnaise, put some on a soft cloth and rub the crayon marks with it to watch them disappear.\n\n\n\n</p><p>The oils in the mayonnaise break down the wax in the crayons and pull the marks off, without disturbing the paint.\n\n\n\n</p><div class='\"wp-block-image\"'><figure class='\"aligncenter' size-full><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' width='\"728\"' height='\"510\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2022%5C/01%5C/8c7cd9582b932ce93c9fb41164.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' class='\"wp-image-30150\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/8c7cd9582b932ce93c9fb41164.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n\n\n\n<h2 class='\"wp-block-heading\"'>Try the military method to\u00a0train yourself to\u00a0sleep in\u00a02\u00a0minutes\n\n\n\n</h2><p>There\u2019s a\u00a0routine created by\u00a0the military that\u2019s been proven to\u00a0help pilots fall asleep in\u00a02\u00a0minutes, or\u00a0even less, although it\u00a0does take a\u00a0bit of\u00a0getting used\u00a0to.\n\n\n\n</p><p>These are the steps to&nbsp;follow.\n\n\n\n</p><p>1.

Chapstick or lip balm can come in handy if you don&rsquo;t have an antiseptic or a shaving nick roller on hand. You&rsquo;d need an unused one, or you could scrape off the top layer that has come into contact with your lips \u2014 just to make sure it&rsquo;s bacteria-free.\n\n\n\n</p><p>Apply it to your nick and leave it on for 30 minutes.

And it\u2019s painful. So the next time you need to hammer in a thin nail, use a bobby pin to secure it. Once the nail is partly in, you can remove the hair accessory and continue to hammer it in completely, keeping your thumbs and fingers safe.\n\n\n\n</p><h2 class='\"wp-block-heading\"'>Soothe insect bites with Epsom salt or\u00a0baking soda paste\n\n\n\n</h2><p>Bee stings are not only painful, for some, but they can also trigger an\u00a0allergy. So\u00a0if\u00a0your discomfort is\u00a0intense and spreading, seek medical help immediately. If\u00a0all you have is\u00a0localized pain and tenderness, you can alleviate it\u00a0with\u00a0Epsom salt\u00a0or\u00a0baking soda.
