There is nothing worse than attempting to change a light bulb in an outdoor fixture only to discover the base of the bulb has corroded and is now stuck in the socket. This is a common problem when fixtures are located near salt water. Here's a trick that can save you hours of time and effort. When installing bulbs, coat the base and socket with a thin layer of petroleum jelly. This greatly slows the oxidation process so that the next time you change the bulb, it unscrews easily. A little preventive maintenance now can save hours of headaches later.
