Sugar is effective against:
1. Nematodes. If the plants in your garden look unhealthy and you notice small lumps on the roots, they are probably infected with nematodes.

This will help the plants to heal.
2. Dirty hands. Sugar is an abrasive substance. If your hands are very dirty, greasy or oily, rub some sugar in your palms and then wash with soap.
3. Wasps. Take two heaped tablespoons of sugar. Add a little water and heat until it dissolves completely. Pour the resulting syrup into small saucers and place them where wasps fly.
4. Burns. If you've ever burned your tongue with a hot drink or food, you know how painful it is! Sprinkle sugar on the burn and the pain will subside.
5. Cockroaches. Mix equal parts of sugar and baking powder. Pour into small saucers and place in the cockroaches' favorite places.
