I left a candle outside on our marble table the other night. Of course the next summer day the candle melted and now there is a visible stain where the wax puddle was. Any ideas?

I can't figure out why my towels have like an old sour smell to them when i wash them or when they get a little damp. Is there something i can use in the wash to get rid of it?

I do laundry often. Espeically face & body towels usually the same day. But, I noticed since i moved into my new house that the towels never smell fresh. They keep this mildew odor and it's only on the towels. I use Tide w/Downy and Snuggle fabric softner and that still does not help. I'm wondering if it's something with my water. I moved earlier this year into a new constructed home/sub division. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hey everyone,

I have a condenser dryer thats about 6 and a half years old, but it doesn't smell very fresh on the inside - As far as I can tell its not extremely bad but its just not a fresh smell. I notice this most straight after it has finished drying but its also there after its been idle for a while.

Tumble dryer sheets don't make much difference, and ive done a full service on the machine (Cleaned all the lint etc. from the interior of the machine + the system as a whole) but the unfresh smell still remains; my main concern is that this smell is getting onto my washed clothes but im not sure.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do about this? maybe its normal? I don't know because ive never smelt anyone else's dryer :P

Thanks a lot!
Stephen.

We have tried Febreeze and alcohol & water. We have even tried sitting it outside in the sun.

I am getting ready to move out of my apartment and I am told they check with a black light for urine stains. I purchased a box of UrineGone and used its black light to find our yorkie left a few spots. The urinegone doesn't seem to work very well. Is there anything that will get the stains out...even under black light?

Left my tennis shoes on the front porch a couple of nights ago and they got soaked by a rain storm, the tennis shoes are dry now, but what a stink. Do I have to throw them away or is there something that will get the stink and dampness out on the inside? Home remedies welcome. Thanks.

I don't know why, but my towels have a sour smell. I put them in the dryer right after the wash is done, I wash them regularly, but still they get a nasty smell to them.
