40 Uses for WD 40

Got this in an email from one of my "older friends" with lots of wisdom!  We always read all these hints from Heloise and I at least am amazed at what can be done with what we have on hand.  Look at this list and if you see something and try it, let me know the results.  The one that I did not see is spraying to get rid of  the bees that bore wood.  We had a problem with that on our storage building and I looked on the Internet and that is what was suggested.  Tried it and like magic they were gone!!
