  • Vent, heating and air conditioning

    Regular vacuuming is a must. Here are some other tips.
  • Phosphates

    Once widely used to soften water for use in washing machines, some makers have reduced use of these chemicals.
  • Cutting board

    Thorough washing and sanitizing is essential, particularly on meat-cutting surfaces.
  • White vinegar

    Think of it as an inexpensive mineral scale remover. It's not the best solution for most cleaning situations.
  • Baking soda

    This mild abrasive is also a decent deodorizer.
  • Acetic acid

    The main active ingredient in vinegar.
  • Scuff mark

    The best advice is “easy does it” when trying to remove scuff marks.
  • Builders

    These additives build on the power of detergent in a number of ways.
  • Lampshade

    Cloth shades should be cleaned carefully with dry methods. Spot clean with wet methods only when absolutely necessary.
  • Oil spill

    Act quickly, or these spots can be a real nightmare to clean.
  • Odor

    Don’t cover up, clean up. Here’s how.
  • Toothbrush, old

    Toothbrushes are re-usable for cleaning tasks. They’re gentle and effective.
  • Chelating agent

    A "builder" that gets dissolved minerals out of the way of laundry detergent.
  • Toaster

    For safety’s sake, unplug this appliance and let it cool first.
  • Shower curtain

    The best way to clean a vinyl, polyester or cotton shower curtain, plus the skinny on shower rods and curtain rings.
  • Houseplants

    Dusting and rinsing are the answers.
  • Tub caulk

    Durable and easily applied, caulk makes repairing cracked or broken grout easy.
  • Acid

    It's helpful — and hazardous — at the same time.
  • Marble

    Solid as a rock? Not quite, if it’s unsealed marble.
  • Bleach

    It's not just from a chlorine bottle anymore.
