  • Allergen slipcover

    These bedding accessories are a must for people with severe asthma or allergic sensitivity to dust mites.
  • Vacuum filtration

    Keeping the dust inside your vacuum.
  • Dander

    Control shedding where it starts – on your dog or cat – with regular brushing.
  • Microfiber

    Tiny fibers offer big cleaning benefits.
  • Dust mites

    You can’t see them, but they can cause allergies and other respiratory problems.
  • Pets

    No question about it, pets can be a joy, but they will add to the housekeeping load.
  • Skunk odor

    A tomato-juice bath isn’t as effective as this home remedy, several experts say.
  • MERV

    A standard for rating heating and air-conditioning filter efficiency.
  • Feces

    Anyone who owns a pet will confront this cleaning challenge sooner or later.
  • Edge cleaning

    Carpets and floors next to walls aren’t daunting to clean. Here’s why.
  • Excrement

    This isn’t a pleasant subject, but pets do have accidents. Here’s how to deal with it.
  • Wet-dry vac

    Wet-dry vacuum cleaners are best suited to garages and unfinished basements since they tend to spew fine dust out with the exhaust air if you don’t install an optional filter. They can come in handy for limited jobs in the home, such as clearing out a clogged sink, sucking up pet accidents, etc.
  • Mold

    The term is interchangeable with “mildew.” However, mold can be very destructive to the home itself.
  • Truck-mounted extractor

    These are the dirt-busting powerhouses of carpet cleaning.
  • Urine

    Act quickly to prevent this spot from drying and becoming a permanent problem.
  • Food disposer

    Indispensable for minimizing food waste in the trash, your garbage disposal needs proper care.
  • Vomit

    Remove as much as you can immediately and dilute with water, experts say. Then follow these tips.
  • Mattress

    Turn and vacuum twice a year for better sleep — and better health.
  • Vacuum system, central

    These powerful units offer many advantages over upright and canister vacuums.
  • 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.
