How do I fix squeaky floorboards using DIY methods

[CaraOliver]

Sure! Here are three different ways you can tackle those squeaky floorboards:

**Baby Powder Trick**: Just sprinkle some baby powder or talcum powder over the squeaky area. Then, use a broom to work it into the cracks. This helps absorb moisture and reduce friction, which usually does the trick!

**Wooden Shims**: If you can access the floor joists, you can slide wooden shims into the gaps between the joists and the floorboards. Just tap them in gently to tighten everything up and eliminate the squeak. Make sure not to go overboard, or you might crack the floor!
