What should you do if your tennis balls stop bouncing? When they are unable to function as they once did? Keeping your fine tennis balls to yourself can be difficult enough if you have a dog and don't subscribe to the "glue in tennis balls is evil" notion. If you don't have a dog and have a lot of unusable tennis balls in UK, you might want to look at this list of things you can do with them.



● Remove scratches

Make a slit in a tennis ball using a utility knife, then place it over the end of an old broom handle. Scuff marks on your wood floors will mysteriously vanish as you rub the ball over them.

● Take out a faulty light bulb.

Tennis ball cut in half. Clear away any glass fragments with caution. To remove the embedded stem from the light bulb, place the tennis ball's open end onto the electrical socket and twist.

● Safeguarding small fingers

A tennis ball should have two slits, one big and one little. To prevent a door from slamming shut on a child's fingers, place the large slit over the edge of the door and then wrap a piece of elastic through the little slit and around the door handles.

● Safeguard a padlock

To stop water from getting inside an outside padlock and freezing, cut a hole in a tennis ball and place it over the lock.

● To soften the blow

In a tennis ball, make an X. Enter the tennis balls' opening with a hammer's head. Use the hammer with the tennis ball attachment to soften the force when striking walls, wood, or other brittle materials where you might have left a scratch.

● Start a jar.

Tennis ball cut in half. To grasp and unscrew tight lids, use the open end.

● Place a parking guidance in place

Staple a tennis ball to a string. When your automobile is parked correctly, hang the tennis ball from the garage ceiling such that it touches the top left corner of the windscreen. You will now be aware of how far to pull in each time you return home.

● Furnish floor

It's messy, time-consuming, and costly to refinish a floor. You definitely don't want to do that since it stinks. I've done it professionally, and even when you get paid for it, it's not enjoyable. Chair legs, walker feet, and pirate pegs that would need to frequently slide or tap over your floor can be covered to protect your priceless floors. Simply cut an X into the top of a tennis ball, then place the afflicted leg inside the tennis ball's cozy embrace. Done.

This method has undoubtedly been used at the neighborhood senior center. Probably coupled with a rollicking round of aqua-aerobics or shuffleboard. Tennis ball-covered walker feet make for safe sliding and are less expensive/easier to replace than tiny rubber caps.

● Garage penetration

It can be challenging to pull into one's garage occasionally without hitting the back wall. Pulling into the garage may be a scary experience, even with constant practice. Even if it's not an F-16 landing on a ship's deck, it may still be a challenging move. especially for temporary drivers. teens, etc. Or anyone else listed as a supplementary insured on your insurance documents.

Why not suspend a tennis ball from your garage ceiling to indicate where you should stop moving those delicate boxes containing Christmas decorations and 6th grade soccer participation awards?
