In daily life, many families have developed a good habit of collecting leftover plastic bottles and selling them as waste, which is not only environmentally friendly but also cost-effective. So, do you know why some people keep the caps when selling plastic bottles? In fact, plastic bottle caps can be very useful at home with just a few simple steps. Let’s explore the magical uses of plastic bottle caps!

The magic of plastic bottle caps

Magical use #1: Preventing garbage bags from falling out

I believe that every family has a trash bin, so when throwing away trash, everyone will encounter the problem of the garbage bag being pulled down and falling to the bottom. If you continue to throw trash into it, the garbage bag will be buried in the trash, making it difficult to clean up in the future and leaving dirt inside the trash bin.

To solve this problem, first, prepare two plastic bottle caps, then use a knife to cut the sides of the caps in half. Finally, apply some glue to the top of the plastic bottle caps and stick them to the sides of the trash bin. When putting on a garbage bag, we just need to place the handle of the garbage bag into the plastic bottle caps, so that the problem of the garbage bag falling into the trash bin can be solved.

Magical use #2: Repairing broken charging cables

If you own a mobile phone, you must have encountered the problem of a broken charging cable, especially the two ends of the cable. So what should you do when faced with such a situation? Here’s a little trick for you: all you need is a plastic bottle cap to easily repair the cable, no matter how bent it is.

Instructions: Light the plastic bottle cap on fire first and use the high temperature to melt it. Then wrap the melted plastic part around the broken part of the phone charging cable, covering the outer layer of the cable. This way, no matter how the data cable is bent and twisted, it will not break, saving costs and being practical.

Magical use #3: Protecting power plugs

Nowadays, household appliances are essential items in every family, and the position of the power plug is particularly important. If you don’t know how to protect the power plug, you can apply the following trick: Take a plastic bottle cap first.

Then use a knife to make two small holes in the center of the plastic bottle cap, with the hole size just enough to fit the power plug. Finally, apply some melted candle wax on the plastic bottle cap and stick it next to the power outlet. When the household appliance is not in use, you just need to unplug it and hang it on the plastic bottle cap. It can not only protect the power plug and prolong its lifespan but also prevent the power plug from touching water, solving problems for many families.

Magical use #4: DIY funnel

In life, everyone surely has the need to pour some objects into bottles and jars. But what if the mouths of these bottles are too small to use a funnel? At this time, plastic bottle caps can become handy. First, prepare a plastic bottle cap, then use a lighter to burn the middle part of the bottle cap.

After the plastic bottle cap has burned for half a minute, slowly push the melted plastic part from the inside of the bottle cap to the outside using chopsticks, and use scissors to cut a small hole in the top. Next, prepare a plastic bottle, cut it in half, and twist the cap into it. That’s it, a simple and practical DIY funnel is done. When you need to pour some objects into a bottle, you just need to attach the DIY funnel to the bottle and pour the objects in, making it smooth and not overflowing.

Magical use #5: DIY moisture absorber

What should I do if I have some food at home that needs to be stored in an airtight container but don’t have a moisture absorber? In fact, this problem can be easily solved with a plastic bottle cap. First, prepare a plastic bottle and use scissors to cut the bottle in half. Then, thread a nylon bag through the mouth of the plastic bottle cap, and the mouth of the nylon bag that needs to be sealed will be pulled out from the inside of the bottle cap.

You can seal the food by quickly and easily twisting the plastic bottle cap, not only solving the difficulty of many families but also protecting the power plug and extending its lifespan.
