Hello Jane,
We sucessfully fixed our annoying kitchen hardwood floor squeak a few week ago using one screw from a kit like this. The kits are in the big box hardware stores.
The screw is placed in the support below and the screw breaks off. Wax crayon covered the repar. Problem sucessfully solved.
You can check out the reviews and Q&A here in the link below.

sprinkle power in the joints. or find where they squeak and screw them down or you can try nails.
