Quick adhesives
Notes:
- Duct tape—the jack of all trades tool that keeps on giving. It can have any number of applications throughout the entire household, [same win]from patching up the hose of a vacuum to closing cracks in buckets or temporarily bonding two items together.
- Additionally, if you need two things permanently stuck together, super glue can make sure that they don’t split apart. Different surfaces may need specialized adhesives to properly stick but having a bottle of superglue can be a viable alternative for most uses.
- For quick fixes when something snaps, duct tape is a great general adhesive, while superglue is best for more delicate work.

Rubber gloves

Portable lighting
Notes:
- You never know when the lights will suddenly go out, either due to faulty fuses, failed light fixtures, or if something knocks out the electricity throughout the entire neighborhood. Having a reliable flashlight [same win]handy for these situations make them far safer than fumbling around in the dark.
- Invest in sturdy flashlights with long battery life and keep extra batteries stocked if the need arises. It’s not going to do you any good to have a dead flashlight when you need it the most.
- You can also use flashlights to illuminate darkened areas of your home that cannot logistically have lights—either the crawl space, the attic, or some parts of your basement. If there is something you need to investigate outside during the night, then having your flashlight will let you know if there are any imminent dangers around, such as tripping hazards or wild animals.
