1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandage with vodka. The
solvent dissolves adhesive

2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger-spray
bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash
clean. The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew.

3. To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean
cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and
kills germs.

4. Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka and letting your
safety razor blade soak in the alcohol after shaving. The vodka
disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.

5. Spray vodka on vomit stains, scrub with a brush, then blot dry.

6. Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as an astringent to
cleanse the skin and tighten pores.

7. Add a jigger of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo. The alcohol
cleanses the scalp, removes toxins from hair, and stimulates the growth of
healthy hair.

8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle and spray bees or wasps to
kill them.

9. Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water in a Ziplock freezer bag
and freeze for a slushy, refreshable ice pack for aches, pain or black
eyes.

10. Fill a clean, used mayonnaise jar with freshly packed lavender
flowers, fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly and set in the sun
for three days. Strain liquid through a coffee filter, then apply the
tincture to aches and pains.

11. To relieve a fever, use a washcloth to rub vodka on your chest and
back as a liniment.

12.! To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.

13. Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.

14. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the
urushiol oil from your skin.

15. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb
some of the alcohol to numb the pain.

16. *NEVER DRINK THE STUFF - IT'LL KILL YOU!*

I didn't realize vodka could be that useful. That gives me more than enough reason to keep it around the house. With regards to drugs though, there's no excuse. If they're found where I live, it's off to the Drug rehabilitation center once again.

Also try if you can get it Chopin vodka this is a true patatoe vodka, you will end up with less of a hangover from it as they use less sugar in the fermenting proccess. The only thing is it is very hard to get here.

So, thinking a little empirical research might be in order using grain and potato based vodkas.  Anyone with me?

sounds good but has to be verified, also what mis cat said might be true as its also the same case with other stuff

 

a lot of these materials are synthezised in variant methods so it might not be applicable

on the type of vodka most commercial brands of vodka are made from grain these days and not potatoes, so most of the uses you mentioned above dont apply because of the high sugar content.

 The last point was good

 

maybe you should label it as FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY
