  • Stainmaster

    Since 2004, this former Dupont trademark name for carpet fiber has been owned by Invista of Wichita, KS, a division of Koch Industries, Inc.
  • Candles

    They create a warm, cozy atmosphere — and present some hazards as well.
  • Vacuum cleaner dust release

    The best vacuums minimize the amount of dust released into the air.
  • Cattle tracks

    These paths aren’t caused by livestock.
  • Water heater

    These two simple tasks will help prevent costly plumbing services.
  • Yellowing

    It happens to both fabrics and hard flooring. Here’s how to deal with it.
  • Ink spot

    Fast action can prevent spots from becoming permanent stains.
  • Lye

    Be careful — as your nose has warned you already, this is a powerful and caustic substance.
  • Relative humidity

    Even humidity is relative.
  • Paint spot

    Latex or oil-based? Either way, take action quickly before it dries into a permanent stain.
  • Bacteria digester

    A handy cleaner, particularly with pets or small children around.
  • Ammonia

    Another fine degreaser, but watch that smell!
  • Radiator, baseboard (forced hot water)

    Regular dusting and vacuuming will make them look better, and they’ll work better, too.
  • Needlework

    When cleaning this, it pays to be gentle.
  • Radon

    Why you should care about this odorless and colorless gas — and what you can do about it.
  • Chlorine bleach

    This laundry aid is also an effective disinfectant, but be careful.
  • Juice spill

    Even ugly blotches will come out completely using the right methods.
  • Haitian cotton

    Cleaning this natural-look upholstery fabric is a real challenge, even for professionals.
  • 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.
  • Radiator, steam (upright)

    These are the simplest, safest type of radiator to keep clean.
