Some of our favorite uses include:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">If you\u2019re in a hurry to collect precious rainwater and you can\u2019t find a container ASAP, aluminum foil will come in handy.

It\u2019s a powdery white substance made up of boron, sodium, and oxygen, also known as sodium borate. Borax has many great uses that can help you during emergencies or tough situations. Just don\u2019t ingest it and store it in a nice dry place, in a waterproof container preferably. Here are some great uses for it:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Want to keep the ants away from your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tactical.com\/organizing-food-supplies-small-spaces\/\">food supply<\/a>? Or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tactical.com\/mosquito-trap\/\">minimize the insects trying to get into your home<\/a>? Sprinkle borax in crevices and cracks or any insect point of entry, and you\u2019ll see less of them around.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use it as a fire suppressant<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Small kitchen fires can get out of hand quickly and if you don\u2019t know how to act fast, you might be in trouble. Throwing borax on flames will effectively smother it\u2014no need to get a pricey fire extinguisher.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Your gear doesn\u2019t have to suffer and rust away to oblivion. Not with a little borax. Borax helps remove rust, so keeping your things rust-free and in good shape should be easy. Just mix a small amount with warm water and lemon juice, and you\u2019ll be good to go.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Borax is good at killing unwanted mold, and it\u2019s easy to use, too. Make a paste out of 1 cup of borax and a gallon of hot water. You can apply this paste to the affected areas and leave it on for 10 minutes before wiping it clean.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1624951749453\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Charcoal<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TC SiteFixes 2020 58\" alt=\"TC SiteFixes 2020 58\" width=\"1024\" height=\"240\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" nitro-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-58.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-58-300x70.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-58-768x180.webp 768w\" nitro-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-58.webp\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9368 nitro-lazy\" decoding=\"async\" nitro-lazy-empty=\"\" id=\"MjQ4OjUzNA==-1\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;nitro-empty-id=MjQ4OjUzNA==-1;base64,PHN2ZyB2aWV3Qm94PSIwIDAgMTAyNCAyNDAiIHdpZHRoPSIxMDI0IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjI0MCIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIj48L3N2Zz4=\"\/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Charcoal has been around for ages and has always been considered useful by many. Though it does require patience to make, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tactical.com\/how-to-make-your-own-charcoal\/\">process of making charcoal<\/a> is actually pretty easy, and we highly recommend you DIY! Now, back to the convenient uses of charcoal:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">As preppers, you can\u2019t rely on electricity and gas to keep your house warm and to put food on the table. At any given time, these could both disappear. What, then, do you rely on for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tactical.com\/6-ways-to-stay-warm-outdoors\/\">keeping warm<\/a>, keeping fires going, and cooking? Charcoal.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Post-apocalypse, things might be a little different. Money won\u2019t have value. What might, though? Charcoal. The fact that you can use it for a variety of things makes it a definite bartering must-have.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Having a sack of coal on hand at your bug out location will be useful, especially if you plan to go out to hunt or stake out the area. Charcoal can be used as a camouflage to keep your presence on the down low.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1624951749454\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Coconut Oil<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TC SiteFixes 2020 59\" alt=\"TC SiteFixes 2020 59\" width=\"1024\" height=\"240\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" nitro-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-59.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-59-300x70.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-59-768x180.webp 768w\" nitro-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-59.webp\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9369 nitro-lazy\" decoding=\"async\" nitro-lazy-empty=\"\" id=\"MjYzOjUzNA==-1\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;nitro-empty-id=MjYzOjUzNA==-1;base64,PHN2ZyB2aWV3Qm94PSIwIDAgMTAyNCAyNDAiIHdpZHRoPSIxMDI0IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjI0MCIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIj48L3N2Zz4=\"\/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">If you\u2019re a true prepper, storing a few bottles of coconut oil in your home and at least a bottle in your bug out bag is highly recommended. In a survival situation, coconut oil has many uses, plus they keep for a long time. What\u2019s the best type to get? Virgin or unrefined coconut oil. Here\u2019s why you should stock up on them:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Coconut oil is great at speeding up healing. If you\u2019ve got a small gash or wound, apply a small amount of coconut oil to the wound to prevent infection and to help the healing process. Coconut oil is also great for soothing sunburns, chapped lips, and joint pains.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">When in need of a boost or pick me up in the morning, substitute your coffee with coconut oil. A tablespoon of coconut oil to a cup of warm water will give you the boost of energy you need. Post SHTF, this will be really handy, too.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Yes, you can use coconut oil for cooking meals when you don\u2019t have regular oil on hand. Using coconut oil for cooking will also help enrich flavors to make your food taste better.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1624951749455\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Nail Polish<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Nail polish might be the last thing on your mind in tough situations\u2014it might even seem useless. But at the end of the day, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tactical.com\/26-things-preppers-forget-pack-bug-out-bag\/\">prepper at heart knows how to make use of even the most \u201cuseless\u201d things<\/a>. Here are our favorite things we use nail polish for:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">In the absence of glue or tape, a bottle of nail polish will do the job of sealing up tears on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tactical.com\/tarps-vs-tents-which-one-should-you-use\/\">tents and tarps<\/a>. This will come in handy, especially when it\u2019s raining and you need to seal up that tear instantly. In the same way, nail polish can also effectively seal a box.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Nail polish is quite flammable and an unusual way to start a fire, but an effective one. It can definitely help you start a fire if you\u2019re unable to build one progressively.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Color-coding gun magazines<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">It can be hard for those who own legal firearms to tell magazines apart with just a glance. Color-coding them will be a big help for quickly identifying them, and you can do that with a stripe of nail polish on the mags.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1624951749456\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Dental Floss<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TC SiteFixes 2020 62\" alt=\"TC SiteFixes 2020 62\" width=\"1024\" height=\"240\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" nitro-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-62.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-62-300x70.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-62-768x180.webp 768w\" nitro-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-fmeid.nitrocdn.com\/mlEMaUVkotnoTcKpUxWWzTkKMDnTMvuR\/assets\/images\/optimized\/rev-7d0d671\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TC-SiteFixes-2020-62.webp\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9372 nitro-lazy\" decoding=\"async\" nitro-lazy-empty=\"\" id=\"MjkyOjUzNA==-1\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;nitro-empty-id=MjkyOjUzNA==-1;base64,PHN2ZyB2aWV3Qm94PSIwIDAgMTAyNCAyNDAiIHdpZHRoPSIxMDI0IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjI0MCIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIj48L3N2Zz4=\"\/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">One look at dental floss and you know you can use it for many different things like putting up a clothesline or tying trash bags together.
