This life hack is very handy when your beloved candle is nearing its end!

Let's set the scene:

You bought a lovely, big candle and have been enjoying its fragrance for weeks now.

But, the wick is getting deeper and deeper and your lighter or matches just won't reach them.

What do you do?

Instead of burning your fingers, light a piece of uncooked spaghetti.

According to The Mirror, the hack first blew up on EastEnders star Zack Morris's Instagram.

The spaghetti will reach into those deep candles and burn long enough to light the candles. How handy!

It may smell slightly funny and you might feel as if you've wasted a perfectly good piece of pasta, but all worth it.
