4. Insect Repellent - The gases emitted by the onion, when sliced, have strong odors and are known irritants. Naturally, household pests will shy away upon detecting those gases. Gather your onion waste and put it in a bowl. Place the bowl where you often see your much despised creepy-crawlies. Pretty soon, those insects will find other venues to terrorize, probably those without onion-based repellents.

4、驅(qū)除蚊蟲——洋蔥切開后散發(fā)的氣味，很強烈刺激。自然，家里的害蟲一察覺到這種氣味，就會躲避開。收集你的洋蔥廢料，放進碗里。把碗放到你常?？匆娪憛捫∨老x的地方。很快，那些小蟲子就會找其它地方撒野去了，可能是那些沒有洋蔥驅(qū)蟲劑的地方。

5. Wart Remover - Mix onion slices with crushed aspirin and a little water. Apply the solution to the wart. The onion’s chemical content and the aspirin’s active ingredients will gradually soothe the wart and make it subside. To maximize the solution’s effect, apply some to a piece of duct tape. Stick the tape on the wart. After several hours, the lesion will be nothing more than a distant memory.

5、去除肉瘤——把洋蔥片跟粉碎的阿司匹林和少量水混合。用這個溶液涂抹肉瘤。洋蔥的化學(xué)成分和阿司匹林的有效成分會逐漸緩解并消退肉瘤。為了最大化此溶液的效力，可涂一些在膠帶上，貼到肉瘤上。幾小時后，損傷就會無影無蹤。

6. Metal Polish - Mix several crushed onion slices with some water. Apply the solution to a dull metal object using a piece of cloth. The results may not come as quickly as commercial polishers, but the onion-based polish is good enough to be a worthy substitute.

6、擦亮金屬——將一些壓碎的洋蔥片和水混合，用塊布蘸取溶液，擦拭暗淡的金屬物品。效果會跟買的拋光劑一樣快，但用洋蔥擦的就足夠好，可以成為劃算的替代品。

7. Acne Remover - Just like with burns and warts, an onion solution can be used to remove acne. The vegetable’s chemical components are harsh on zits, erasing them gradually upon application. Mix crushed onion slices with water and apply the mixture to your face. It is pretty effective, however it will probably do a number on your eyes. Just apply if the your eyes sting in the process.

7、去除粉刺——就像燒傷和肉瘤一樣，洋蔥溶液可以用來去除粉刺。這種蔬菜的化學(xué)成分對青春痘有克制作用，使用后可逐漸消除。將粉碎的洋蔥片和水混合，用混合物抹臉。這很有效，不過可能會刺激一下你的眼睛。如果在過程中眼睛刺痛，也要堅持使用哦。
