Answer: How to remove onion smell from hands? To get rid of onion, pepper or garlic smells from hands, mix a ratio of two level tablespoons of baking soda to a glass of water and soak hands for 30 seconds to a minute. Also great for getting rid of these smells/burning from mouth (rinse, don't swallow!). -- Tony W
Answer #2: how to get rid of smells on hands to get rid of seafood, fish, onion smell on your hands, pour two tablespoons of table salt into your palm, mix with a little water and wash hands with this mixture, rinse, and add a little lotion to your hands. The salt not only cleans the smell from your hands; but, it also sluffs old skin off and softens hands. -- Lena

Answer#5: Onion Smell. While you are at the sink washing your hands, just rub them all over the faucet. I have also found that using hand sanitizer takes away the odor. -- Gerri LaVallee. 19/02/08
Answer#6: STINKY HANDS. I was reading about those smelly hands and all you have to do to get the onion smell off after you get through cutting is use a drop or two of dishwashing liquid and a little salt and rub for just a bit and rinse. Also if you are cutting an onion and bell pepper, cut the onion first then the bell pepper and rub your hands just a little with the pepper and no need to do anything the pepper does the trick. For shrimp smell use a little lemon juice and a little salt and rub and rinse. -- D1 Kelly 22 Dec 2002 (by courtesy of www.hints-n-tips.com)
Answer#7: Smelly hands. I keep the lemons and limes that have been squeezed beside the sink, the main use is to rub on my hands after processing fish or any other foods. You can also use them to cut the limescale around taps and plugholes. -- Rachel Dee 22 July 2003

Answer: Don't dry it in the dryer until you've gotten the stain out. That sets it. Try working Dawn dish liquid or Mean Green Degreaser (avail at Dollar General) into the stains and letting it set all day, then launder as usual. -- Modisette, Teri 27 Jan 2004

Answer: Iron Gunk Remover Tip -- I'm not sure where your from but in the US, WalMart stores now carry a product that removed the stuff from the underside of the iron. The come in small 1 ½" to 2" tubes. You heat the iron, put the stuff on the hot iron, wipe away stinky stuff (for me its stitch witchery since I quit using it) with a cotton cloth that can handle the heat. Then when it cools down, I use a soap/water rag to clean it again. This product at Walmart is usually where they sell the tub hangers and there are two tubes per package for less than $2. Also, peanut butter will remove gum. It dissolves it. I managed to fall asleep when little and my mom/grandma used it to get the gum out of my hair without the need for a buzz job hair cut! -- Cathi Catherine Banks 14 Oct 2003

/_\ www.chemoangels.com MargieAnswer: Removing Hot Glue. Hello, I saw your question on www.qznaz.com. I am also looking for tips to remove hot glue, I did find a couple of websites for this and they all said to put the garment in the freezer and then peel back the glue. Another suggestion was to put the garment on several pieces of paper towel and use a hot iron. I haven't tried these as yet but will give it a try. Hope this helps you.

Subject Sago Palm I have a Sago Palm and noted small brownish scales (scab like) on the backs of the fronds. Can you tell me what these are and how to treat these?
