Woodbridge Environmental offers a super simple remedy to this problem that can fix the squeaks in a matter of seconds. Just spread corn starch over the seams where the boards are rubbing. The powder will then fill in the gaps in and act as a lubricant.

 

It's an easy to implement hack that's green, too.
