Duct tape is one of the handiest things we could have in our home. There are few things that duct tape can’t handle. But there are plenty that it can.
Here are 15 uses for duct tape:
Collapsible Cut
Cover the bottom half of a mason jar with duct tape. Use the sticky side out of the tape for the first layer. Make several layers so that the tape becomes a firm solidified piece. Use a piece around the circumference of the jar. Pull the tape off of the jar and it will be in the shape of a collapsible cup.
Remove Warts
Place a piece of duct tape over your wart for six days to eliminate it and prevent the wart from spreading.
