One of the best ways to avoid any potential accidents of drowning is to use pool noodles as a floating guide for children. These fun and colorful foam pool toys are very light, smooth, and are safe to play with. They are not only useful when used around pools but they are also very flexible to use for countless DIY projects in your home. Pool noodles come in different sizes and are cheap to buy, especially when bought in bulk.
Moreover, these play foams have amazing properties needed for other functions, such as being resistant to corrosion. They can also be utilized in many industrial applications such as insulation for pipes and cables and have excellent impact absorption capacity. So, if you are wondering how you can reuse pool noodles, there are plenty of options you can try. These uses are pretty simple yet they offer excellent protection.
First, you can use them as a door bumper. This is perfect if you are tired of hearing that pesky door from banging into your walls as you rush in and out of your home. By simply cutting a short section of pool noodle and slipping it onto the edge of the door or gate, you can guard them against marring walls. The same can be done with pool noodles in protecting lift gate. Just slit the noodle using a knife and slip it onto the brace of your garage door, preventing the paint of your gate from getting pared off.
Another basic but protective use of a pool noodle is being a ladder guard. When it’s the time to clean out gutters and other far-reaching areas, you don’t want your metal ladder to scratch them. Pool noodles will make good ladder protectors. Simply cut 2 feet sections of the foam noodles, slit them with a knife and stick them on the ladder steps. They provide great cushions to your legs, too.
