Alternative uses for aspirin tablets

Aspirin was dubbed the wonder drug of the 19th century. It reduced fever, acted as a pain reliever, and can bring down swelling. Unknown to many people, the drug derived from willow bark has other uses as well

• Dissolve 2 aspirins in half a cup of warm water and apply to perspiration-stained fabric for a couple of hours before washing.

•  aspirin can also be used as a laundry aid. Both egg stains and perspiration stains can be removed by it use. For perspiration stains, mix one half-cup water with two crushed tablets and let the let the stained part of the piece of clothing soak in the solution for up to three hours.

•  Egg stains are a little more complicated. If removing the stain with luke-warm water so the stain doesn't set does not work, mix cream of tartar with some crushed aspirin and let it soak for a half an hour. Once this is done rinse the afflicted piece of clothing thoroughly in warm water. The stain should then be gone.

• Help cut flowers last longer It’s a tried-and-true way to keep roses and other cut flowers fresh longer: Put a crushed aspirin in the water before adding your flowers. Other household items that you can put in the water to extend the life of your flower arrangements include: a multivitamin, a teaspoon of sugar, a pinch of salt and baking soda, and even a copper penny. Also, don’t forget to change the vase water every few days.

• Use as garden aid Aspirin is not only a first-aid essential for you, but for your garden as well. Some gardeners grind it up for use as a rooting agent, or mix it with water to treat fungus conditions in the soil. But be careful when using aspirin around plants; too much of it can cause burns or other damage to your greenery. When treating soil, the typical dosage should be a half or a full aspirin tablet in 1 quart (1 liter) water.

•  Remove Warts : Many blogs and websites discuss the virtues of using aspirin to cur warts, but only this one provides a quick recipe using a few tablets and apple cider vinegar as a workable poultice. Others suggest duct-taping a tablet to the affected area as well.
•  Clean Up Soap Scum : Aspirin paste can wipe up lingering soap scum in bathtubs, sinks, and other washbasins, but it is not economical for larger jobs.
• Pesticide : Smashing up a few aspirin and mixing it with cornstarch results in a powder that helps stave off (though not entirely eliminate) an influx of pesky insects in gardens and around a home’s perimeter.
• Make an Anti-Fungal Powder : Those suffering from athlete’s foot or other fungal condition may be interested in learning how to blend crushed aspirin and talcum powder together in order to make it disappear
