![]() What are some of your best household hints? Things that make your life a little easier, or that might be a "greener" way to do things?
I clean out the foul smell of my garbage disposal buy dumping half of an old box of baking soda (the one I used for the fridge) down it before I go to bed. Then in the morning I pour about 3 cups of vinegar mixed with 1 cup of water down it. Quite a show... and a science lesson for the kids too! My old vacuum got that old vacuum smell so I cut up a cardboard car air freshener and sucked that up. That worked pretty for quite a while. What hints make your life easier? |

![]() Mr. Clean Erasers!!!!! Wow, I don't know how I did my bathroom before those.
Yah, I'm a little "Mr. Mom-ish". No one cleans as well as I do, so I end up doing all the cleaning ![]() Wet Swiffer is a close second to revolutionary products for my cleaning routine ![]() |

I used to be in the cleaning supply business and lot of customers really liked citrus-based cleaners for cutting through grease. ps...after saying all that, I'm still a tough guy....grrrrrrr....who just likes things to be clean ![]() |

![]() what's the best thing to clean water stains from a fiberglass shower? Something that won't kill ya with it's deadly fumes, the product I use works great but you about need a respirator to do the job.

![]() When it comes to smelly things, I swear by pine sol. I haven't found an odor yet that pine sol didn't get rid of.
Another vaccum cleaner idea: dump a little of a scent sachet into bag or canister. It will fragrance your room. A clothing trick: If your whites ever start looking dingy, soak them in warm/hot water and cascade (dish soap). |

![]() Now, I've never tried it....but apparently, if you have a pot or something that is turning dark, like from cooked on grease and stuff, if you use meat tenderiser and a damp cloth, it's supposed to take the black stuff off... gonna have to give it a shot

![]() You can put out shallow pan of beer in your back garden to get rid of slugs.
