O.T. Sort of Sleep Solution?

[6PtStar]

I got this this from a friend. Came from the Chattanogga Times Free Press. Just wondered if anyone ever tried #8?

Some helpful household tips
1--A great way to keep your fruit and veggies fresh is to wrap them in newspaper before storing them in the bottom of your refrigerator.
2--To remove sticky labels from glass and plasticware, heat the label with a blow dryer for about 30 seconds and it should peel off easily.
3--Bees and wasps will stay away from your food if you place a fresh sprig of mint on your picnic blanket.
4--If your house smells like fish after cooking, bake a sliced lemon in a pie plate at 200 F for about 20 minutes. The smell is wonderful.
5--At your next garden party, put a few cans of beer around the yard. Insects will be attracted to the beer and not your guests.
6--To clean your tile floor, mix 1 cup mouthwash with a gallon of water for mopping. The floor will get cleaned and the bacteria will disappear.
7--If you've burned something while cooking, boil 1 cup vinegar in 2 cups water for about 15 minutes, and the smell will be gone.
8--Get a good night's sleep the natural way by drinking a glass of water, then dissolving a pinch of salt on your tongue. Make sure the salt doesn't touch the roof of your mouth. Studies show a combination of salt and water can induce a deep sleep.
9--Update your cupcakes by filling a flat-bottomed ice cream cone two-thirds of the way up with cake batter. Bake in a deep-sided baking pan at 325 F for about half an hour. Frost and add sprinkles for a fun kids' treat.
10--For a cheap exfoliant, wash your face with a paste made of three parts baking soda and one part water. Avoid the eye area.
11--If your whites have yellowed, soak them for a couple of hours in a solution of 1/2 cup lemon juice or 1/2 cup white vinegar, then wash as usual. No need for bleach.
12--Add a can of lemon-lime soda, along with your regular detergent, to extra-greasy clothes. The citrus acid breaks down the grease and your wash will sparkle.

I don't know about number 8, but I do know that number 5 won't work well due to the fact that my guests will be holding the cans of beer.

Hi Jerry

#6 may have possibilities: If adding a cup of mouthwash to a gallon of water cleans your floor clean and free of bacteria, sounds like you have found the ideal solution to clean your apnea gear. Let me know how it works.
