Cleaning & Laundry - November 2006

My cat peed on my polyester boots. The only thing they are made of is the rubber sole heel and the polyester upper and lining. They are very simple with no natural material. I was going to wash them in the kitchen sink, cold water with soap and then vinegar. Is this the correct way to clean and deodorize these boots? I just dont want to mess up the polyester. :) Thanks

It has a build up of what seems to be remnants of scorched on clothing! I have tried rubbing with soap and water and nothing works.

I just discovered that there is a leak in my room in one corner. This is corner is where I have been keeping three stacked boxes of all of my books. The bottom box is ruined, so I took the books out and I have them in the open to dry (after I tried to wipe some of the mold off). The second box was half bad, and I did the same.

My problem is that I love some of these books. The first box has several books which are all signed and personalized by authors (Nicholas Sparks, John Grisham, Steven King, and Harlan Coben). I would never want to sell them, but the fact that they are in ruins makes me extremely mad.

Does anyone have any solution?

If I dry them out and wipe them again, do you think it would be safe to keep them? Is mold really that dangerous?

I just bought my down blanket brand new and it has a funny smell to it. I was told thats normal and the other blankets had the same thing going on when I unzipped them at the store. I tried tumbling in the dryer with a few dryer sheets but still has a weird smell to it. How do I get rid of that?
