A super-simple solution for a common house problem.

Silence That Squeak!

The floors in my home squeaked like crazy. Every time I tried shims and screws, the squeaks moved to different places, or came back later. I solved the problem by applying a bead of construction adhesive between the joist and floor board joints in the squeaky areas along both sides of the joists. It worked — the squeaks are gone for good.
