Our dogs have been urinating on our living room carpet when we are not home. I have tried a few different cleaners to clean and deodorize but nothing seems to work. Do you know of anything that works to eliminate the odor... it is really disgusting!

We are from India, and in India even the most reputed, dry Cleaning shop, washes your woolens and silk clothes, with ordinary cleaning powder, and hand it over after iorning, along with a hefty bill. When they (Dry Clean Wala) can do it then why we can not do it? If any body have suggestions, regarding how to do it ( Dry Cleaning) at home, post it.

We have an "A+2000 Permanent Electrostatic Air Filter" that I've just washed, but now I'm not sure if I have to let it dry before I can put it back in the furnace.
Anyone have experience with this? Can't find any info on their site...
Thanks!

I am seriously thinking about building a house. It's not going to be a mansion or a shack, but somewhere in between that's comfortable and that I can call my own. What are the steps in building my own house?

Fancy colors are not needed, just that it looks like driftwood, or obviously wood by its shape. I would like to build a field stone type wall of it but need field stone type prices.
