That's one of my favorite books.^ Crafty birds they are:
Vinegar kills rust.
Also, you don't need toxic shampoos to kill head lice.
Mix a gallon jug of vinegar, a bottle of lemon juice and some salt.
Rinse hair thoroughly with mixture for as long as you can stand it. A good few times, at least. Repeat 3 or 4 times, a week apart.
Just be sure to warm it first. It's pretty miserable dousing your head with cold liquid.
Works like a charm every time.

^ Add olive oil, basil, honey, mustard, crushed garlic and cracked pepper to the remainder = salad dressing.

I was "using my Ruler" when I discovered that science fact.
And... now I'm scared.

The llareta is an alien-looking plant that grows in the Andes, in very dry conditions, between 10,000 and 15,000 feet. "Grow" is almost an exaggeration. Because of the harsh conditions, it grows at the rate of about a meter every century. And you thought your house plant was being slow. It's quite green and might look like a blob of Jell-O but it's actually quite hard and tough.
Because it grows so slowly, some llareta plants that you see may be 3,000 years old, or older. Older than the giant California sequoias. When the Kingdom of Israel was being established, when the Zhou Dynasty was coming into being, before the Age of Pericles, some of the plants we see today had started growing.
And because it's such a dry and arid place, the plant is dry as well, so it's quite combustible and is used to start fires. Imagine a plant that's been growing for three millennia plucked out and tossed into a fire pit to allow for the night's cooking and a little temporary warmth.
