Mind Blowing Life Hacks: Amazing Uses For Plastic Wrap And Aluminum Foil

No More Melted Ice-Cream Mess

We all know that children can be quite messy and when handed an ice-cream, there is hardly any way to keep the melted mess from staining clothes. Not to mention sticky hands and a general disaster. However, you could prevent a horrible mess by wrapping the bottom of the ice-cream in aluminum foil to create a protective barrier between their little hands and the melting ice-cream. The foil will assist by collecting the drops as it melts, keeping both hands and clothes ideally clean.

Cockroach Repellent

We all have either shelves, cabinets, or drawers in our kitchens that are a bit too deep, which these spots dark and void of any natural light. Unfortunately, for this reason, they are also the most ideal places for cockroaches to lurk. Simply place a sheet of aluminum foil on shelves, drawers, and hard to reach cabinets. The aluminum foil will reflect light into these dark spots, which will act as an effective cockroach repellent. Say goodbye to pesty creepy crawlers!
