Do you ever find yourself throwing away those little balls of cotton that occasionally come with pill or vitamin purchases? Well, you’re not alone. Most people do that. After all, other than providing packing for pills and vitamins, what use are they?
Truth be told, though, they can be useful. Insert them along with a few wooden matches into a waterproof container of some kind, and you have a compact fire starting kit for inclusion in your emergency survival kit. The cotton makes great tinder.
Make sure, however, that those matches are not safety matches. A regular match can be lit by striking against almost any rough surface. A safety match cannot.
