  • Microban

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

    Whether in the kitchen or bath, a sink’s material — not location — determines the cleaning method.
  • Neutral cleaner

    A cleaning agent having a pH of 7 and which is neither acid nor alkaline. In a less technical sense, a "neutral" cleaner has a pH between 6 and 8.
  • Tub caulk

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

    A water softening additive can help with laundering in hard water. There’s also a more permanent solution.
  • Caulk

    In the bathroom, caulk makes repairing cracked or broken grout easy.

    Mildew and mold are fungi. Bleach, borax, and other common chemicals effectively fight outbreaks.
  • Garbage can

    Clean right after trash collection to remove odors.
  • Detergent

    A cleaning agent that, unlike traditional soap, works well in hard water.
  • Gas grill

    These patio appliances need occasional safety checks to ensure an enjoyable summer.

    This laminate surface is durable and resilient if properly cleaned.
  • Glass panes

    Here’s how to clean them and save money.
  • Silk houseplants

    Plastics clean easily. Check for colorfastness before cleaning fabric plants with water.
  • Sink, porcelain

    Be gentle, since true porcelain cracks and scratches easily.
  • Mattress

    Turn and vacuum twice a year for better sleep — and better health.
  • Soap

    The old standby is mild enough for personal use, but doesn’t work too well in hard water.
  • Phosphates

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

    Some thoughts on different products for easing this task.
