My husband is a tea drinker and I enjoy coffee. Over time both drinks have produced stains in our favorite cups, even with thorough washing after use.

Has anyone found a way to get rid of these brownish stains that really works?

Am I leaving them in the washer/dryer too long? Am I using too much or too little laundry detergent? Maybe the wrong brands? Do fabric softeners affect the smell? Cold or warm water? Not enough time in the dryer? Thanks

I bought a rotisserie oven online; it was a great bargain, but it arrived with minimal instructions, and a pair of heat-resistant, long silicone gloves, for lifting food off the spit. I then rinse them with boiling water & add them to the dishwasher at 50 degrees. I think they are sterile - but they look grubby, and stained.

I regularly put running shoes through the washing machine, at 40 degrees, with detergent. Do you think that I should try that with these gloves?

There's no online deal to replace them or to buy a spare pair, and I have planned a Halloween party based on the oven. Should I risk it? My neighbour tried once to wash oven gloves & they got shredded!?

...well, I was filling in cracks, got the stuff ALL OVER my fingers and hands...it dried....now, I can't get the stuff off. I've been pulling pieces of it off...with my skin....I've tried soaking and scrubbing in hot/soapy water, cold/soapy water, paint thinner, mineral spirits, goo gone stuff, acetone finger nail polish etc....does anyone have any other ideas????? I know it will eventually wear off, but, that will take weeks or longer, I don't have the long!!!!

Tidying my bedroom..... UUURGGGH!

Oddly enough, I don't mind tidying the kitchen/other rooms (Even the loo's not that bad)... I guess it's because the kitchen and the bathroom NEED tyding for hygiene reasons whereas the bedroom technically doesn't (IMO)

I have a mug that is white on the inside. Unfortunately it's stained from leftover tea and what not. I miss the pretty white color my mug used to be. Are there any products I can use (safely) to get the stain out? I've scrubbed and scrubbed but I haven't really gotten it to come out.

Any tips would be helpful!

theres a stain on the dark green countertop, at a house i clean,i may have somehow inadvertantly did this, even tho i have no clue as to how or what did it, it may have been caused by BLEACH< LYSOL< A MIXTURE OF VINIGER AND WATER??? i don't know,! none of the bottoms were damp or wet, but there IS a stain, and it is half a cresant shape. like that of the bottle bottom. and it was not there before i cleaned.it's not a granite top, not sure on what it is! nor is it marble. thanks.

surplus coat hangers from my cupboard. Plastic, wood or wire they all seem to be multiplying, are they born at night or are they reincarnated socks lost in the washing machine?

Where the hell is it coming from? I have bad allergies, so last week I vacuumed, cleared out all the clutter and dusted damn near everything. I replaced the air filter on my AC system. And now, just a week later, there's already a layer of dust on my shelves and I still have allergies in here. My fan isn't very powerful, is that why? I just want to know- where is it coming from and how do I get rid of it or keep it from accumulating? Thanks.
