Default Squeaky hardwood floor solved?

Higgs Boson posted for all of us...

And I know how to SNIP

BAKING SODA!!!!


(oops...musta hit Send..)

Whoinhellwouldathought baking soda would work!!!!

I strewed it over trial area that squeaks worst; mooshed it sideways into cracks, spread carpet over it and mooshed around some more.

SQUEAK LESSENED!!!

Figures, when you think of it, which I did not; it fills cracks between old hardwood strips to keep them from rubbing against each other. Now will expand treatment to most-trodden areas -- "paths" that one follows from room to room -- and see how long treatment lasts.

Joy to the world!!!!

Measure with your amp and headphones! I am sorry Higgy but I could not
resist...
