It seems innocent enough: tossing out food deer love to eat to help them survive during the harsh winter months. But the problem is, feeding them something that is not part of their routine diet can make them sick or even kill them. Deer graze and eat what is available to them, so when they come across an ample new food supply -- like dried corn -- their stomachs aren't adjusted to digest it. If they eat too much, they can get something called "acidosis," which causes them to severely bloat. If you want to help, remove brush and leave your garden untrimmed so deer can graze from those sources of wild feed.

Did you squeeze a bunch of lemons? Don't throw them away when they can still be used to help freshen up one of the hardest-to-clean kitchen appliances: your microwave. Just toss the squeezed lemons into a microwave-safe bowl and fill it with water, then run it in the microwave for five minutes. The lemony steam helps disinfect, loosens grime and makes cleaning the inside of the microwave easier. Just take a towel and wipe the inside after the five minutes are up.

It's no surprise that your windows are the biggest culprit in letting cold air in during the winter season. Old low-efficiency windows can be responsible for up to 30% of your home's heat loss. While replacing them may not be an option for everyone, adding storm windows can help increase their efficiency. And if that isn't an option, just adding plastic film (available at any hardware store) can take up to 14% off your heating bill. It may not be the most attractive look, but it'll help you stay warm and cozy this winter season.
