Our diswasher is not cleaning highballs and other tumblers as well as it should, we place the in the right place in the machine but still they often have gritty residue inside them and somtimes even particles of food. Do you think it is because we wash cookware at the same time as glassware, cutlery and crockery? Or am I being a bit dim?

I have a dog that was staying inside for awhile and while in the house they urinated on the floor I have pulled up the carpet and the padding under it but the smell is also in the wood subflooring under the carpet. I need to know something i can use to get the smell out before putting down new flooring?

I have an older wood burning stove and a lot of ash dust gets all over things in the kitchen. Cleaning windows and countertops are no problem. But the ceiling is. What is the best way to clean a kitchen ceiling and with what product. I started using a mop with a powdered cleaner Spick and Span, and it has helped, but it is slow going. Any suggestions?

We just recently moved into an old farm house. When we first walked in, it smelled horrible of a musty wood stove. It seemed that anyone who has ever lived there NEVER cleaned it! We've been in and stripped wall paper painted a few rooms CLEANED EVERYTHING! and you can still catch that smell in all of the rooms. How can I get rid of it?

Hi i have a Bissell pro heat upright deep carpet cleaner.....My question is does anyone know if you can buy a universal type shampoo to use in the machine and where to buy from???

Because the Bissell solution which is good dont get me wrong is quite expensive. It also states only to use Bissell cleaning fluid to avoid damaging the unit??

Any sensible advice much appreciated. :)

I spilled a cherry drink on the floor of my car. It made a mess! I tried using resolve but it didn't work too well. Any advice to get rid of the stain (other than getting it professional cleaned) would be greatly appreciated.

I recently bought a new doona (duvet to you other strange people!) from Ikea and it smells kind of funky. It's just a spare for visitors but when I pull it out the whole room smells. It's got feathery stuff inside and I have tried washing/airing/spraying with deoderant but no luck. Any suggestions on something I could use on it? Thanks heaps.

I have not dried it yet. I have read about Rit color remover. I just want to get the pink out of the white parts and not alter the other colors. Is Rit safe or is there a safer product?

My cat recently died, and though i'm still coping with the grief of losing a pet, i now have a new set of problems: there are fleas all over my apartment. I have clothes EVERYWHERE (i'm a 22 y/o female in college... what do you expect?) My loft doesn't have carpet, but i'm worried about what a flea bomb will do to my clothes. And if i don't treat them, i'm guessing i won't solve the flea problem.

I really hate chemicals and would like to do a "green" or at least semi-natural cure. Any suggestions?

I used Lysol with bleach to clean my bathroom but I'm afraid I used to much. My eyes started watering and now I have a cough.

Please share the process, it is so tedious and expensive to wash my work clothes weekly since I can't afford so many sets.
Thanks a lot.

I have a cotton/rayon cream colored shirt that i barely got a grease smudge on. I am told that dish soap works the best but the pink dawn essentials (which is waht i have) will not work. Only the blue works. Is this true?

Okay....I was cleaning my s.s. fridge last week and now it looks like CRAP! :( Someone told me that I could use glass cleaner on it and I did---Bad idea. :(

There were so many fingerprints (I have 4 kids) and also water drippings (it has a water/ice dispenser that goes everywhere when you use it) all over the front that I started spraying generic (Wal*Mart brand) Glass Plus on a paper towel and then wiping it.

Well, one of the kids started talking to me, I became distracted and I sprayed the glass cleaner DIRECTLY on the fridge in 2 spots! Now, you can see the 'starburst' pattern from the sprays and also where the cleaner ran down the door..... Ugh! It looks awful!!

I have tried using vinegar, dish soap and water, glass cleaner again---This time ONLY on the paper towel.....But, to NO AVAIL.

Is my fridge going to look like this forever? Or is there hope?

Thanks in advance,
Karen

Well i guess that i don;'t have the right dawn dish soap to get out my grease smudge on my rayon/cotton shirt so i was wondering if oxyclean would work just as good?
