  • Dander

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

    We cannot overstate the importance of reading product labels. Far too many people ignore this vital information.
  • Green cleaning

    Safer product purchases and methods that may help spare the environment.
  • MSDS

    What’s a Material Safety Data Sheet, anyway?
  • Toxoplasmosis

    A concern for pregnant women and anyone with a weakened immune system.
  • Feces

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

    Another fine degreaser, but watch that smell!
  • Acetone

    That bottle of nail-polish remover has more than just one purpose.
  • Radiator heating system

    Cleaning is straightforward when you think safety first.
  • Ivory

    If you have a genuine ivory heirloom, clean it with care. Plastic is easier to maintain and doesn't endanger wildlife.
  • Organic chemical, compound

    Any substance that has carbon molecules in its structure.
  • Phosphates

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

    You’ll need the services of a pest-control professional to eliminate an infestation.
  • Builders

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

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

    It’s how advancing technology helps people keep bacteria at bay.
