Tzitzis knots getting loose and untied. How do you keep them tight?

Tighten the knots every morning, or at least once a week.
I believe there is a segula associated with good eyesight and this

Cold?
I was told to specifically use hot

While both work, warm or hot water last longer IME

(Also a tip, tighten after it's wet)

I use them for my kids all the time. Not these, because they're annoyingly shaped. Wal-Mart sells square snack bags.
