udandi & the craft of money: Hydrogen Peroxide

Sunday, March 26, 2006

As I picked up a 16 oz of hydrogen peroxide 3% for 84 cents, I started thinking of how I use this product:

cleaning minor cuts and abrasions
as a mouth rinse
to rinse off my toothbrush
for blood stain removal
to loosen ear wax buildup (those ear wax removal kits are a higher percentage of hydrogen peroxide)

Proceed with caution on the last two because some people have had negative results in putting hydrogen peroxide in their ears.

I have 2 fears: something happening to my eyes and having my teeth knocked out.
