If you have empty toilet paper tubes, consider using them to help keep your cables and cords organized in your drawer or when you travel. Wrapping things like headphones, phone chargers and electronic cords around the tube can help prevent them from getting knotted or damaged. To reinforce a cardboard tube, stuff old paper inside to give it stability and support, then use a stapler to close the ends.

Think twice about ordering coffee or tea when you’re traveling by plane. According to a story published by Travel and Leisure, most flight attendants won’t drink a hot beverage made on the plane, because the water used comes from the tap. Water samples taken from planes have shown a high percentage of harmful bacteria; in fact, one in eight planes fails the Environmental Protection Agency’s standards for water safety. Instead, bring a reusable thermos and fill it up at the airport prior to boarding.

If you have annoying houseflies and fruit flies zipping around your kitchen, avoid the temptation to grab a chemical spray, hang glue traps or even swat them with your hands. One of the easiest ways to capture them is to simply use apple cider vinegar. The insects are attracted to the pungent smell and will fly directly to it. To capture the flies, add a few drops of liquid soap on top. This slick surface is enough to create something called “surface tension,” so the flies will sink and drown on contact.
