Vicks is a cure all for so many things. My sister had acne when we were younger, my mom told her to use Vicks on her face, a daily regimen, today she has a beautiful complexion . We're in our 50s and 60s now. Thanks Mom I miss you.❤
Vicks is great for dry cracked feet and hands,put a small cup by windows and doors and Flys and mosquitoes won't enter. Good for squeaky hinges. My grandmother taught me all kinds of stuff.
@@ValerieGumble worked great, for ants you are better off baiting them with something high in calories life a piece of a power bar in the corner. I was staying in $2 a night places, some are what many would consider less than desirable.

I spent one summer in Louisiana feeding the local bugs. I obviously have the good blood. A kind older lady in a store felt pity on me and turned me onto vicks. I use the lavender scent. I keep a jar on my front porch now and when I sit or go outside i put a few small dabs on my ankles elbow neck & wrists. I am no longer on the menu. I'm headed to put some on the kitchen sill. I hope to screw up the ants' day.
@@lindamassey9817 Neither had I. It's not a massive smell difference from the original. Still, it works great. Amazon and Walmart both carry it. My granddaughters were more open to using the Vicks when I showed them the purple flowers on the jar. They think GMA has magic 💕
To prevent bed bugs from biting you. 😳 If one has bed bug you better do a lot more than apply Vicks on ur body. FYI Diatomaceous Earth IS A 100% cure for bed bugs and all bugs in general
LMFAO!!!! That was absolutely hilarious! I got to that segment, thought to myself, Apply Vix to stop the bed bugs from biting?! Wtf? Why would I continue to go to sleep in a bed that had Bed Bugs! Let alone do prep work to stop them from biting LOL!!! I'm burning the god damn Mattress 😂😂😂😂
@@judithscobee8102 all bugs will die when expose to diatomaceous earth. They have exoskeletons and the non poisonous non toxic DE creates cuts in their exoskeleton and they dye of dehydration - they know to stay way so yes this includes spiders. it’s said humans as well as dogs can drink DE (it’s a powder yet put in a liquid) and it will help rid one of parasites. However one must use the food grade DE not the type used in swimming pool filtration. It’s cheap 2
My family is currently living in a hotel and I've noticed some cockroaches in our room. I'm trying really hard to keep it clean for my kids, but we had a lady stay next door with a dog and after she left I noticed the roaches in our room. I'll try rubbing Vic's in our room. Thank you for sharing
@@dday3322 thank you. I'm trying hard to keep my family safe while we are going through our situation. Thank God my children are teenagers, but still I want them to be safe
@@vickiefinney6073 I hate cockroaches. I'm sorry that you must live in a hotel room. That can't be easy. The Vicks works great. Also peppermint oil on a cotton ball stuck in cracks of the foundation of the room are also good.
This the one I was looking for I have Coach roach problem no matter what do just when I think there gone they come back so I just rub in the drawers plz let me know I really need help Thank you California ♥️😎
Buy eucalyptus oil and apply to cotton balls or cardboard stick into wall holes, under cabinets and stoves. Vicks is mostly petroleum with a little eucalyptus oil.
Diatomaceous Earth for anything that has an exoskeleton. Not toxic to anything with an internal skeleton, like humans and birds. If you use food grade, it is edible too, and can kill intestinal parasites.
I also use it to keep bats off my enclosed porch. They always find a way to squeeze in through the smallest of cracks. So put Vicks around the windows. Keeps them away.
Bats? Are you sure that you aren't actually keeping the Bugs away that the Bats would actually be interested in? 😂😂😂 You put vix out and find that all the bats are gone 😂😂😂, Maybe because the Vix is effecting their food source, The Bugs 😂😂😂
i used it for bed bugs, it did absolutely nothing to quell them. i woke up 1/2 way through the night with bed bugs stuck in the vaporub. when i squeezed the bugs they were full of blood, mine!! i was so hoping that vaporub would take care of the bed bugs, but my hopes have been dashed.
I dislike fleas and mosquitoes but spiders, ai consider my friends. They eat mosquitoes and other icky bugs. I have q metallic green orchard orb weaver near my mailbox. Tiny and beautiful thing. Such pretty colors and has a bright orange happy face on its abdomen! Tiny and harmless.
It's the best insect repellent too. Even blackflies will flee ! If you have roaches, they can crawl into kids (adults too) ears at night. Vicks repels them, but I would use earplugs too. I hate them!
I had a well established toenail infection and the remedy were too costly, so I rubbed vicks around the nail a couple of times and I swear it started to work almost straight away, it was gone within a week and never came back
At 0:47 the video that accompanies the voice-over discussing bed bugs shows what appears to be an arachnid, perhaps a tick, sporting eight legs (or at least four on the side which is visible.) My understanding is that bed bugs are insects and as such are limited to six legs. Still, I appreciate the tip about Vicks vaporub, and I'll try it.
I'd like to add anybody out there who has a toenail fungus all you have to do is put the Vicks on your toenails on the fungus of course the whole toenail and under if you can and then put your socks on and sleep and do that for two weeks and you'll notice that the fungus is dying and dead I don't know exactly if it's the eucalyptus I'm not sure but my doctor told me to use it because the things on the market were not working for me and trust me it kills the fungus.
Put a bit of Vapo Rub into your warm bath and breathe in deeply clears the head, nose and sinuses. It can stop cats running up and down trees I mean stray cats.
Boil water and drop a tlb. Spoon of Vicks have a seat, place towel over head inhale works wonders boil a lemon until soft cut lemon in pieces ,in a cup add honey ginger optional drink as. tonic for bronchial flu colds.your welcome to lay down & sweat it out.😉
I was thinking the same, that she meant baking SODA. However, baking powder does contain baking soda along with some other ingredients and is used as a leavening agent. Perhaps it expands in the insects or rodents stomachs causing a bursting effect?
@@nnvincent3 Yes, I've read (often) of the baking SODA trick, mixed equal amounts with a desirable (to mice) food, which has to be dry. Not sure what mixing in the Vick's does. I don't think it will work on insects. It is just that (again, from lots I've read) it gives the rodents gas which unlike us, they can't pass. The Vick's not being water-based may not affect the baking soda. The baking soda has to remain dry until it is digested as otherwise it degasses before it is eaten.
I was working in a hospital I end up with bed bugs in my house, I tell you it started off with one I seen I clean, spray and wash yet it was not enough it became to be lots and lots of bed bugs I had to move and I had to leave a lot behind. I got a new place now no bed bugs. Those bugs was bitting me leaving marks on my body I could not sleep. But when I moved and left things that I didn't want to leave behind, I got no bed bugs now. That was years ago.
Like duck tape VICS has a 1001 uses, last time I got nailed by a spider VICS help to take the sting and pain away, still wound up in the hospital, dang spiders cause more harm thana rattlesnake.
The rat thing I don't know if it works or not...(doubt it) but if it does you don't want the rats walking away and dying somewhere else like under your fridge or oven or even worse in the walls or attic because then your just gonna be dealing with a horrible smell of death in your house. That goes for just about any poison! The old fashioned spring traps are about the best thing it's a quick snap to the neck also instead of a slow poisoning death
Sticky traps and some peanut butter remain undefeated for mice ever since a pest control guy who came to my job and told me. Apparently they can't keep themselves away from peanut butter.
In@@orlandosimpson8404I am using DR Catch mouse traps. Smear a dab of peanut butter on the Bait cup, set the trap, and BAM. I killed 10 mice in two days with these. Unlike the old vic traps, I never touch the dead mouse, and I don't have to worry about breaking a finger by accident.
It's actually the turpentine that does all the work in this product eucalyptus under a microscope actually doesn't kill much or deters much as you might think.
@kaydee did camphor and turpentine are both very high in Alpha and beta pinene. It's really cool because they come from opposite sides of the Earth. Camphor I think is generally like Asia or Middle Eastern grows over there and turpentine is over here in the United States:) so although there are differences they have some very big things in common
NOTE: DO NOT USE THE BAIT BALLS IF YOU HAVE CATS OR DOGS, OR TO POISON OUTDOOR RODENT INFESTATIONS. IT WILL MAKE OTHER ANIMALS THAT THEN EAT THE RODENTS SICK, OR EVEN KILL THEM.
Get some Jiffy cornbread mix that has the honey in it and baking soda. Mix half-and-half in a little container put it in a couple places you see the mice coming in or the rats. They eat it because it has the honey in the Jiffy the one with the little utensil with honey dripping off of it and because they can't pass gas from the baking soda they go off and croak. It works. I got this idea from my Farmer Rancher on TH-cam
Not really sure this would work wherever mice are fed well. But for folks outside of cities, I think it would work very well. Mice absolutely eat ANYTHING, lol. Clothes, shoes, Tupperware, etc. They are horrible when your dealing with a huge amount of them.
I was thinking that about rats. Rats are known for sending out a guinea pig to try out new food and see if it's safe. If the guinea pig dies too soon, the rest of the rats won't touch the food.
i made a curious discovery. i have had trouble sleeping for a long time. i started playing video`s on youtube with crickets sounds, as they relaxed me enough to fall asleep. when the bedbugs hit the scene, they were going crazy with activity. almost as though they were being aggravated by the crickets chirping. i had to stop playing the crickets sounds videos, and within 2 nights the bedbugs settle down and allowed me to sleep longer without having them jumping all over my head and neck. in retrospect, i am wondering if that couldn`t be used as a way of controlling them, by playing the sounds in another room, or outside a window, so the bedbugs would go there because they were attracted to another insect`s chirping sounds? there must be a way of killing them after they go to where the cricket sounds are playing from.
I hope that these repellents work because insects of all kinds love my blood for some reason! I have lost count of all the times I've been bitten by spiders 🙏🤞🤞🤞thanks for the info 👍
I don't have a cat nor dog so really isn't any problem for me. My monitor lizards are smart enough not to eat it nor touch it. Thankfully, we're solid.
You can't use a lot ofthings out in the open. That's why God made furniture feet, to elevate the furniture enough for you to slip stuff under there out of the way of kids and pets.
I need to figure out how to keep spiders out of my apt! I keep finding them crawling around, especially around 2-3 am (I have insomnia)! If I see them, I use a plastic fly swatter to kill them then dispose them down the toilet! Ugh!
Thanks for tips!! With the exception of " Bed bug advice"😅...Have my own thoughts on that one! And Vicks not it! 😅 The rest however i can absolutely appreciate! 💖🤗
Well, I used Vicks yesterday on my flower pots, you said it keeps Squirres away. WRONG, Squirrels still get into my flower lot and dig. And I smeared it all around the pot and on top of the rim of the pot.
These must be NYC Squirrels! 😂 My best friend (deceased) and I were sitting outside in the garden and this Brooklyn squirrel ran up behind her (sucker move) and snatched her chicken wing right out of her hand!!

I don't have a cat nor dog so really isn't any problem for me. My monitor lizards are smart enough not to eat it nor touch it. Thankfully, we're solid.
My cats have no problems with Vicks. They have a sensitive noses and don't go anywhere near it.
You can't use a lot ofthings out in the open. That's why God made furniture feet, to elevate the furniture enough for you to slip stuff under there out of the way of kids and pets.
Thsnks. Good and usefull information
Thank you information .
Really I've been using that since I was a kid mom never told me this this is 💯🌹💯👑
I need to figure out how to keep spiders out of my apt! I keep finding them crawling around, especially around 2-3 am (I have insomnia)! If I see them, I use a plastic fly swatter to kill them then dispose them down the toilet! Ugh!
Buy yourself some chestnuts 🌰 crack open put where spiders are they will move out there is few other nuts out there will do the same thing
Thank you for yours tipsily well appreciate 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Note it will repel bed bugs not get rid of them. It takes alot of knowledge and energy to get rid of a actual bed bug infestation
Did you see the adorable little chipmunks they showed when they were talking about mice? Chipmunks do not belong in a classification with mice.
Good old chip and Dale.
I doubt if it works with getting rid of mice because I don't see any posts saying that it does.
Thanks for tips!! With the exception of " Bed bug advice"😅...Have my own thoughts on that one! And Vicks not it! 😅
The rest however i can absolutely appreciate! 💖🤗
Thank you so much good information.❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is very helpful information… thank you!! 👍
Wow! Trying to hear what she is saying is difficult because the music is so loud. Cannot compete.
A question… it might keep ants out but what about the ants that are inside the house? Where will they go? 5:01
Great tips! .
I always make sure l Vicks
A wonderfully good video
Just an observation, when the music is louder than the narrator I move on very quickly
wow I think that I really needs to try this one out ASAP
And among the worst things is having a dead mouse that you can't locate, stinking up your home, I'd place this in a transparent trap
That’s great info
Well, I used Vicks yesterday on my flower pots, you said it keeps Squirres away. WRONG, Squirrels still get into my flower lot and dig. And I smeared it all around the pot and on top of the rim of the pot.
Smart rodents🐿️🐿️
They jump from the tree onto the flowers, avoiding the flower pot
These must be NYC Squirrels! 😂 My best friend (deceased) and I were sitting outside in the garden and this Brooklyn squirrel ran up behind her (sucker move) and snatched her chicken wing right out of her hand!! And left her shaking and in disbelief 😂😂 I WAS ROLLING 😂😂😂. ONLY IN NYC VICKS MY @#$. ROTFLMBO….
