According to the animal advocacy website AcctPhilly.org, when you see a healthy cat wandering your neighborhood, it may be best to just leave it alone. Healthy felines who are not in danger are often best left alone so they can find their own way home. Trying to trap the cat and bring it to a shelter when it is not in need of medical care "is the least likely way for that cat to get home." But if you are concerned for the cat's safety (after being attacked by a dog, for example), you should intervene.

If you brew a pot of coffee every morning and have leftover java, save the brew to give your grill a good cleaning. The natural acids in coffee help break down grease, grime and other baked-on messes that have collected on your grill grates. Just pour lots of leftover coffee into a basin and soak the grill grates. Let them sit overnight, and rinse them off the next day. They'll be clean and ready for some barbecue.

In the spring and summer months, you may keep lighter fluid or oil for tiki torches outdoors to make last-minute backyard soirees a breeze to put together. But these items are considered hazardous chemicals and should not be stored outside. According to the EPA, hazardous chemicals should be stored in covered areas to avoid rainfall. When rainwater mixes with flammable or toxic chemicals, it can carry the chemical mixture into the ground or make it nearly impossible to clean up.
