There are many things to consider when deciding to replace a ceiling light.

First and foremost is always safety. The electricity should be shut off at the main electrical box. The easiest way to be sure the power is off would be to see if the light works. The power should also be checked at the box with an electrical multimeter to be sure you won't get shocked.

Posted: 07 May 2010 03:52 PM PDT

Gnats are annoying little insects that have bothered humanity for centuries. They tend to be the worst around the summer months, and they multiply very quickly. However, there are some tried and true ways to repel gnats that don't require a lot of work.

Poke a few holes in the plastic cap with a screwdriver or a nail. Pour some vinegar in the bottle, but do not fill it up. Leave a little space between the cap and the bottle so that gnats can get in, but not out. Now, place the bottle where you see gnats the most. Gnats adore the smell of vinegar, and will soon come flying over. When they are in the bottle, take them out and toss the bottle in the trash.
