I hve accidently spilt/splashed some bleach on my black pants without realizing and then washed the pants. Now I have little splash red dots on my black pants from the bleach - how do I get the pants back to being black safely? Oh yes and of course they are my favorite ones!!!

Spilt cooking oil and mopped it up using towels but that seemed to embed it into the carpet. In some areas I used my wet vac to suck the oil up as much as we could and then cleaned the carpet. But carpet still looks dirty and it seem like the dirt is sticking to where the oil was spilt. I can see the stains on the carpet. Now sure what to use or how to clean the carpet to get the oil out and the carpet cleaned properly. should I be looking at getting a professional cleaner in or is there something out in the market that I can use. I have a carpet cleaner a magic queen that converts from a vacuum to a wet vac where I can use water from the tap an wash my carpet and then suck the dirty water up. What should I do?

I never had this problem with my old top-loader (it had a lint trap). With this washer, though, from day 1 my clothes have come out with these lint/hair balls firmly stuck to them. (Sometimes they look like little laundry spiders. Alas, they don't come off in the dryer.) I'm interested in hearing about what other people have tried--I've heard about velcro balls that are tossed into the wash but have yet to read any comments from someone who has actually tried them.

We get piles of these in our laundry trash but they still smell so nice, and I hate thinking that there's probably something handy I could do with them.

Any thoughts or uses?

I am renting a house and the carpet in one bedroom stinks. I have tried everything that I can think of plus I have cleaned it numerous times and it still smells like an animal used it for it's bathroom. My landlord refuses to replace it or let me do it...I need some help on how to get rid of this smell...Summer is coming up and that is when it smells the worst.

I need to take a suit in to be dry cleaned. Will the dry cleaning be able to to remove stains (like coffee)? Will it be able to remove grease stains (like from a small food spill)? Finally, can it remove body oils (like the ring around the collar)?

My suit does not smell bad, but it has been over a year (and wearing once per week) since last cleaning.

My vacuums are pieces of crap. I have had a Eureka and a dirst devil. I vacumm and kitty litter still is on the ground. I havent been able to vacuum for a few days because ours is broken again. I dont want kitty litter around because of my daughter and because of myself. I do not want to go out and buy yet another one just so it can last a week or two and crap out. I cannot afford one of those dysons so check that off. I do not want to spend anymore than 120.00

Please keep in mind this is a family of 4 and I need a pretty good vacuum that can handle constant spills (kids)
