Regardless of how much money you may have in your bank account, hackers and thieves will target anyone. In recent years, a new trend has begun. Wireless credit card thieves use magnetic signals to steal your money without ever touching you. They do this by using proximity devices that scan and use your credit cards.
You can easily prevent this type of theft by wrapping your wallet in aluminum foil. This will completely isolate your credit cards and any other electronic device from external communication, being the equivalent of putting your wallet in an underground safe. Who knew that aluminum foil could actually protect your bank account?
Create A Disposable Frying Pan
Let's say you're out with your friends on an impromptu night of camping. You guys have everything assembled and ready. The tents are hitched, the fire is roaring, the campfire songs are being sung… pretty soon you begin to get hungry, but oh no! You've forgotten your frying pan at home and nobody else has one!
Luckily for you, after reading this article you've decided to carry aluminum foil with you wherever you go. Now all you have to do in order to save the day for everyone is to take a few branches, stick them together in a large square, and tape aluminum foil across them as a bowl-like surface. Congratulations! You have just created your very own DIY frying pan.
Boost Seed Growth With Aluminum
Like most tiny growing things, baby seedlings need all the help they can get to turn into big adult plants. If you want to help your seeds grow faster into healthy plants, you can give them a serious boost by using some aluminum foil. When planting your seeds, create tiny aluminum foil planters to cover and place your seeds in, in order to give them some extra sunlight.
This will help your seeds grow faster and blossom into the great plants that they are meant to be. We highly recommend this habit if you have a green thumb and are going to be planting seeds because these little guys need the sun as much as we need water.
Prevent Paint From Solidifying
Sometimes we leave paint lids open for a little too long. Let's face it, opening and closing lids during a big paint job isn't very convenient. But what ends up happening is that within a short amount of time our paint dries out and turns into a solid mass, effectively ruining the entire paint jar. This happens due to a process called oxidation, where the material comes in contact with air.
Prevent your paint from solidifying by having a piece of aluminum foil ready next to the paint bucket. When you finish using the bucket just put the aluminum foil on the tin while blowing air into the bucket — this will cause the air inside it to get replaced with carbon dioxide and keep the paint inside wet and ready for use!
Keep Your Child’s Mattress Perfectly Clean
Changing sheets nightly is an inevitable part of being a parent. Diapers don't always hold as much as we want them to, bottles drip, and babies make messes. Sheets can be washed but what about the mattresses underneath? You might ask yourself exactly what trick there is here, but in fact, it's actually very simple. Just wrap your mattress with aluminum foil before putting the sheets on - this will not make it any less comfortable for the child and will make sure that fluids don't seep into it.
Once your child has mastered going to the bathroom on their own, you can remove the aluminum foil and let them enjoy the bed without extra protection.
