Solution:
Tennis balls can be used for more than just a game, I have some great alternative uses that will come in handy all over your house.
   
1. Tennis balls are an asset in the laundry room. Not only can they be tossed into the dryer to give new life to a comforter, some curtains or a jacket, but a new tennis ball will also help fight static in the laundry, just toss it in the dryer with the rest of the clothes!
 
2. If you have a light bulb that has broken off in a socket push a tennis ball against the broken socket and twist the remains out with ease!
 
3. Cut a slit in a tennis ball and slip it over the head of a hammer to protect surfaces.
 
4. Cut slits in four tennis balls to help protect your floors when you need to move some heavy furniture.
 
5. Teachers can use this trick in the classroom to cut down the noise, plus it's a fun look for the students!
 
6. If you're never sure how far you should pull into the garage a tennis ball can solve your problem. Put the car where it is supposed to be and suspend a tennis ball from the ceiling so it rests on the windshield. This way you can pull into the garage and know just when to stop!
