It'll often work even better than eyebrow pluckers at scootin' splinters out from under your skin. Duct tape is an excellent upholstery repair tool. If your cushion splits after a visit by Aunt Bertha, just tape over the area. Use duct tape for all your auto detailing needs. This has the double effect of deterring the ants and makin' your cats do those funny three paws off the ground dances when it steps on the tape.
Nothing can hold the batteries in a remote like duct tape.
It's a great around the house repair kit. Vacuum hose splits disappear under the powerful grip of duct tape and falling wallpaper just needs a little dab of tape at the edges to hold it back up. Duct tape can extend your reach and get you into tight places to retrieve lost items. In the bathroom, duct tape can keep a split toilet seat from pinchin' your butt and it can provide a nice waterproof seal for patching shower curtains and pipes. Even tekno-geeks need duct tape in their lives.
