5. Fruit picker

Picking high limbs on fruit trees just got incredibly easier with this plastic bottle hack. Cut a hole on the side at the bottom of a 2-liter bottle and add a handle to the neck of the bottle. Slip the fruit into the hole, pull down and watch as peaches, pears and apples drop safely into the bottle.

6. Wasp trap

Some sources, such as State-By-State Gardening, encourage gardeners to let wasps freely fly around the garden to ward off other pests and increase pollination. But if you’d rather not tempt fate and end up stung, it’s easy to fashion a DIY wasp trap out of a plastic bottle using a utility knife and a stapler. The wasps enter to get to the solution but struggle to get back out.
