A SaLtStory

That right there is one of my favorite meal. Yam and oil, and to make it complete, add salt to the oil. The feeling you get from eating is second to none...its indescribable! In fact, its one of the many wonders of the world. lolzzzzz

I wish this post was about yam and oil, but Nah!!! Its not about that at all. Its about SALT! Yeah salt.

Aside the fact that salt adds taste to meals, there are some other fascinating uses of salt I would love to share with you.
So, fasten your seat belt and let's ride!

1. Deters Ant:
Number 1 on the list of fascinating uses of salt is that it can be used to deter ants. All you have to do is sprinkle it in door ways,on window sills and anywhere else ants use to sneak into your house, its a sure way to keep them out
P.S. I tried this one my self today and it worked like magic. Any kind of ant,they just 'kent' deal! Lolz

2. Kills grass and weeds:
Those weeds growing in cracks in your driveway,if you are tired of weeding them out, sprinkle salt on the grass and pour hot water over it.
P.S.S not only is it an highly effective way to kill unwanted plants,its also eco friendly and cheap.

3. Soothe a bee sting:
Wet the sting right away, then cover it with salt.

4. Say good bye to fleas:
If your dog has fleas,simply wash their dog house and blankets in salt water. And if you are worried your dog may have brought fleas into your house, then worry no more. Simply sprinkle your carpet lightly with salt and then brush it in. Leave it for 12 hours and vacuum thoroughly.

5. Pick up a dropped egg:
If you drop an egg on the kitchen floor, sprinkle salt on the mess and leave it there for 20 minutes, you will be able to wipe it right up

6. Drip proof candles:
If you soak new candles in a strong salt solution for a few hours,then dry them well, they won't drip when you burn them.
(These days when NEPA no longer works but PHCN(please hold candle now), this should be a welcome development. Lolz)

So go try it out and let me know how it worked for you.

See ya!
