You run the bead ^ along the intersection of the floor joist and the sub-flooring:

==============
______________
^| |^
| |
| |
| |
| |

Then you press it as you would caulking. The result is that the two are joined and move together. In theory, eliminating a source of 'the squeaks.'


Then the glue bead is taking the weight of whatever is on top with a
gap between the two beads. Eventually it's going to fail and Mr.
Squeaky comes back.
