Whacky Home Appliances
It seems that there is a gadget gizmo or tool for everything these days. We all have a garage full of tools that perform a wide range of household tasks, screwdrivers, hammers and spanners have been around in some form or another for hundreds of years and each have multiple functions. A screwdriver for example can do anything from putting up a spice rack to building your kid’s radio controlled car and everything in between. There are still some household tasks however which still lack a standard method of completion, for example, have you ever chased a fly around the house with a news paper in vein, only to end up smashing one of your prized vases and failing to kill the blighter as it lands on the summer quiche you’ve just made.
There are companies however that are innovating new, useful products to perform tasks like this. The new bug zapper for example is a great twist on a traditional fly killer, shaped like a tennis racket, the killer has a large surface area and a handle which allows you swing the device with force, eliminating any little critters that dare to go near your BBQ! These would make brilliant stocking fillers for new home owners with pest control problems. Spider catchers perform a similar function and will be a godsend for arachnophobes and make great personalised gifts.
It is not just bugs that can make home life hell, your own residents can often turn a beautiful home into a pig sty! The bathroom can be a particular moot point and the men of the house especially can drag down the tranquil, crisp clean environment you’ve tried to create. Invest in a LavNav to stop this problem, this consists of a red or green motion sensitive light that illuminates when you go near it. These would be great Christmas gift ideas for tormented housewives!
