How to install Command Strips and No More Nails strips

Wait a couple of hours before putting any weight on it.
Where and when to use (and not use) adhesive strips
Adhesive strips should only be used on clean, sound surfaces. Dust, grease, flaky paint and other contaminants will stop the adhesive from sticking properly.
Adhesive strips should only be used on smooth, painted surfaces. Textured walls, wallpaper and bare brick are a bad idea.
Check that the paint on your walls isn’t dusty or loose.
Don’t touch the surface that you’re going to stick a strip to. Even if your hands are clean, moisture and oils from skin are the number one cause of problems with adhesive strips.
Don’t be tempted to touch the adhesive. It doesn’t feel as sticky as you probably think it will, and touching it will make it less effective. (The adhesive is pressure-sensitive, which means pressing on it activates it.)
If your wall suffers from very severe temperature variations, you might be better choosing another location.
Be mindful of weight limits. A Command Strip will hold up to about 500g comfortably, but when you put something onto a shelf you introduce extra weight.

How to remove Command Strips
Press against the body of whatever is stuck to the wall to hold the strip firmly, then gently pull the removal tab.
As the removal tab stretches, move your grip closer to the body.
If the removal tab snaps and you can’t grab what remains, twist the body rather than pulling it.
How to remove No More Nails strips
Pull a strong thread behind the body to break the contact with the wall.
If you can’t do this, twist the body rather than pulling.
