Sunday Bits

Cinco de Mayo - are you celebrating or do you not need a reason to have a margarita and tacos?


Just a couple of things today that reuse soda bottles.  Simple, easy, cheap and effective - all that I require.  Take a look.

Small Greenhouse
 
Cut off the top of a two liter soda bottle.  Invert the bottom and place it over the plant you are growing.  Easy!

Mosquito Trapper
 
Mosquito trap - No more mosquitos!! Cut the top off a 2 liter bottle. Invert the cone and place it inside the bottle. Glue the two pieces together. Add 1 tsp yeast and 1/2 cup sugar to some luke warm water, and pour the mixture into the bottle. Mosquitoes are attracted to the carbon dioxide that you exhale. The yeast feeds off the sugar and emits the same gas, so the mosquito enters the bottle, thinking she will find food there. Wonderful!


Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.  Meanwhile .... keep it simple and make it real.
