How about little Squirts... I have been roaming around my place and it seems everything could use a little oiling...

Each Other

6. Little Squirts

Beginner Level

In honor of MaryJane’s father, no farmgirl should abide a squeaky door. Walk around your house and give each door and hinge a good oiling.
Oil the chains to any bikes your family owns.
Make sure all metal garden tools have been oiled before being stored for the winter or off-season.
Intermediate Level

Sometimes a door squeaks even after it has been oiled, so with a screwdriver, sandpaper and a level, fix any stubborn doors you might have so all your doors swing freely and close easily. Make sure all locks are in good working order.
Expert Level

Set up a bike repair day in your neighborhood and show the neighborhood kids how to properly oil and maintain their bikes and tricycles.

Oh...this is a good idea for me. Can I do the beginner and intermediate back to back and apply for them at the same time? My house was built in the 20's and I don't think the doors have ever been oiled. They are squeeky and you have to close them a certain way to get them to shut.

OK....I did the oiling today. Wow! I have 25 doors in my house! I've always wondered how many we had. I knew it was a lot, but I've never had reason to count them until now LOL :) I also oiled our bike chains and that made them run so nice and smooth.

Renee,

I'm glad you chose this one. I've oiled all my doors inside and out along with a couple of tools not in use now. The back screen door gets used so much that I guess we just got used to the little squeak. I just oiled it and no more squeak!
