Use these bags as birdfeeders also. You can buy suet --commercial or at the grocery store. Just place it in the bag and hang from a tree. Woodpeckers love suet. Please do not use mesh onion bags for the birds.
If you have indoor cats and have trouble keeping them out of your plants, just putthe mesh bags around the base of the plant.They don't like it because it gets caught in thierpaws and you can water as usual.
Use large onion bags to put the balls in to wash and sanitize them using a kids swimming pool.
Use them to store flower bulbs in.
Put in the bottom of flower pots. Helps keep the potting soil in and lets the water drain out. When the plants are ready to be removed to the garden you can rinse them off and use them again.
They are also good to clean the BBQ grill. Then just toss in the trash. Some jobs are just to yucky to try to reuse it.
Store toys for the car. That way everything is together in the car. Use a bread bag clip or a rubber band to close the mesh bag.
Great for getting Bugs off your windshiled.Keep one in the car in a zipper bag with a little dishwater on it. The bugs come of & any residue can be rinsed off using the rinse button with the wipers or with bottled water. Or even with water left in your cup from fast food lunch.
Add several used soap pieces, close and hang close to your outddoor water spigot. Great to wash yours, or kis, dirty hands before coming in the house.
Scrub off her bird's perches and ladders. They scrape off the icky stuff and scour the wood without having to use steel wool which might leave bits of metal for the bird. Cut them down into pices if it's a large bag.
In fall, fill them with the leaves and use them to cover my rose bushes, just use rocks to weigh them down.
You can also use the small ones to hang suet feeders in the trees for birds. Roll some shortening into birdseed, put inside the mesh and hang near your window.
You can wash the mesh well, put a sponge inside, weave string around to cinch closed and you have a homemade 'body polisher' for the shower. (I've seen them for sale in the beauty dept.)
Along those lines you could put soap in the mesh instead of a sponge and make soap on a rope.
Rinse out an old liquid detergent container (the huge ones with the spigot that sit on their sides), fill with water, hang the soap/mesh bag on the spigot, you have a wash station for camp or the worksite.
They are effective for washing small items in the dishwasher. It will hold all the items in place so that they won't wind up in the bottom of the dishwasher.
Hold the balls of wool or yarn when knitting. You do not have wool/yarn unraveling any more and you'll find the wool easier to work with when traveling. It works very well if you knit using the wool from the outside of ball as well.
Use them for hanging wet bath tub toys from the shower head.
Can be used in camping. When you wash your dishes, you put the wet dishes in the bags and hang them to dry. In big groups like Scouts, this works great. It keeps each persons dishes separate and kids are more likely to wash their dishes if they don't have to dry them.
Make kitchen scrubbies.
Use about three and fold and stack and using a long weaving needle, do a running stitch down the center of the folded mesh bags and draw up tightly and place a plastic zip tie in the center ... pull tight and trim the excess zip tie, then fluff it out. The orange mesh bags work the best for this. Best of all they are FREE.
