When the remote control eventually runs out, you need to replace the batteries. But if you don’t have the same size and only small batteries are available, a piece of aluminum foil can help you. Fold the aluminum foil a few times until it is small enough to fit into the battery compartment of your remote control.
#6
Take a piece of aluminum foil and form it into a ball so that the shiny side faces outward. After this, put it in the dishwasher; either in the cutlery basket or in the cutlery drawer. Afterward, fill your dishwasher with a dishwashing tab as you normally would and start the cycle. After it’s done, remove the foil and throw it in the trash. This should now have caused a chemical reaction to make your cutlery look much better and shinier again.
#7
Pour some hot water into the baking dish and a small drop of detergent. Then, tear off a small piece of aluminum foil and form it into a ball. With this, you can get the stubborn grease out of the casserole dish.
#8
If you want to fill a liquid into a bottle that has a small opening and you don’t have a funnel at home, you can use aluminum foil. Tear off a piece and roll it into a funnel. Once you’ve done this, you can put it into the bottle, fill it with water, and should run perfectly through the DIY funnel.
#9
Did you know you can clean silver jewelry with aluminum foil? First, take a small bowl and put the aluminum foil, shaping it like the bowl. Next, add 2 to 3 tsp of table salt to the foil, then put the silver jewelry on top. Lastly, pour some hot water into it. Leave it for at least 30 minutes before taking it out.
#10
Take an aluminum foil, cut it a little bit to size, and then put one of your feet on it and wrap it around your foot. Do this with both feet and leave it for about an hour. This will help the cold subside much faster.
