Fix Squeaky Floorboards
You are going to grab a quick midnight snack, and you don’t want anyone to hear you, but that annoying squeaky floorboard is always as loud as an alarm at 5 am. Next time that happens grab a bar of soap and get to work!
Lather up the soap a bit, then rub it around the edges of the squeaky floorboards. This reduces the friction between floorboards and makes them less noisy. You need to be careful though, let the soapy spot dry before you walk so you don’t slip and fall.
