## Just like on [[Shabbat]] it's permitted to squeeze a food into another food, it's also permitted on [[Yom Tov]]. For example, it'd be permitted to squeeze a lemon onto sugar and then pour water on top of it. <ref> [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/Display.asp?ClipID=546 Rabbi Eli Mansour on dailyhalacha.com]</ref>

## Some say that it is permitted to kill bugs on Yom Tov that are bothering you.<ref>Melachim Emunecha (p. 279) quoting Rav Yakov Kamenetsky that it is permitted to kill bugs on Yom Tov that are bothering you since it is an application of mitoch from shechita. Rabbi Zilberstein in the footnote argues that perhaps it is forbidden since it is only removing something bothering you and not producing a positive benefit (similar to the Ran's logic by Kibbuy).
