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、驱除蚊虫——洋葱切开后散发的气味，很强烈刺激。自然，家里的害虫一察觉到这种气味，就会躲避开。收集你的洋葱废料，放进碗里。把碗放到你常常看见讨厌小爬虫的地方。很快，那些小虫子就会找其它地方撒野去了，可能是那些没有洋葱驱虫剂的地方。

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——把洋葱片跟粉碎的阿司匹林和少量水混合。用这个溶液涂抹肉瘤。洋葱的化学成分和阿司匹林的有效成分会逐渐缓解并消退肉瘤。为了最大化此溶液的效力，可涂一些在胶带上，贴到肉瘤上。几小时后，损伤就会无影无踪。

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、擦亮金属——将一些压碎的洋葱片和水混合，用块布蘸取溶液，擦拭暗淡的金属物品。效果会跟买的抛光剂一样快，但用洋葱擦的就足够好，可以成为划算的替代品。

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——就像烧伤和肉瘤一样，洋葱溶液可以用来去除粉刺。这种蔬菜的化学成分对青春痘有克制作用，使用后可逐渐消除。将粉碎的洋葱片和水混合，用混合物抹脸。这很有效，不过可能会刺激一下你的眼睛。如果在过程中眼睛刺痛，也要坚持使用哦。
