  • Abrasive (scouring) cleaners

    They're great aids in everyday chores, but be careful — don't cause damage that can only complicate future cleaning.
  • Acetone

    That bottle of nail-polish remover has more than just one purpose.
  • Acoustical tile ceiling

    A ceiling that absorbs sound — plus a whole lot more.
  • Awnings

    Tread lightly while cleaning these sun screens.
  • Barbecue grill

    We’ve listed these patio appliances as separate entries by fuel type.
  • Bathroom rug

    Just chuck them into the washing machine.
  • Bed bugs

    You’ll need the services of a pest-control professional to eliminate an infestation.
  • Brick, interior (untreated)

    This porous surface can be cleaned using the right methods.
  • Carpet

    Vacuum often to maintain appearance and long life.
  • Cattle tracks

    These paths aren’t caused by livestock.
  • Cutting board

    Thorough washing and sanitizing is essential, particularly on meat-cutting surfaces.
  • De-scaler

    These products help remove crusty scale from plumbing fixtures and other surfaces.
  • Dilution

    Proper dilution is key to making cleaning concentrates work best, but how do you figure out those ratios?
  • Grease, airborne

    Prevention is at least as important as cleaning here.
  • Kitchen

    Timeliness is key in cleaning the most heavily used room in the house.
  • Microbes

    The scientific name for what many people call germs or bugs. Microbes contribute to bad smelling bathrooms, but also function as nature's cleaning agents.
  • Mineral scale

    That white or beige crust is coming from your tap water.
  • Pressure washers

    They’re great outdoor cleaning tools, but they can cause severe injury or damage if misused.
  • Rubbing alcohol

    An inexpensive, highly useful household solvent. Use carefully — it’s flammable.
