  • Lead paint

    If it’s in good shape, it just needs regular cleaning to avoid hazards.
  • Lint

    It’s unavoidable, just like death and taxes. Here’s how to make it bearable.
  • Marble

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

    A relatively new material that removes soil by "hooking" it.
  • Mildew

    It’s a persistent, worthy enemy of the healthy housekeeper.
  • Mirror

    A clean mirror is a nice reflection on you!
  • Mold

    The term is interchangeable with “mildew.” However, mold can be very destructive to the home itself.
  • N95 respirator

    An essential tool used to protect people from hazardous fumes during certain jobs.
  • Non-stick cookware

    Easy does it. Leave the gritty cleansers and rough pads to more demanding jobs.
  • Odor

    Don’t cover up, clean up. Here’s how.
  • Oriental rug

    This is another easy-does-it job. When in doubt, seek professional help.
  • Oven, continuous-cleaning

    Abrasive pads and harsh cleaning agents can degrade this oven’s ability to keep itself clean.
  • Oven, convection

    Even if your oven “cleans” itself, some tasks still need to be done by hand.
  • Oven, conventional

    Clear winner of the Worst Job in the House Award.
  • Oven, self-cleaning

    The self-cleaning cycle works by incinerating stuck-on food and grease at high temperatures.
  • Paint cleaning

    Here’s the safe way to spot clean any painted surface.
  • Phosphates

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

    The garden hose is the easiest and best tool for routine cleanings.
  • Portable extractor

    These machines are best for light cleanings. For tough jobs, call a professional.
  • Pressed wood

    Vacuuming is the best way to dust this porous surface.
