Cleaning & Laundry - September 2007

I've tried most of the major brands, they leave streaks and smudges that show up in sun light or car head light glare. I've tried using newspaper, it seems to help, but I think the wax at car washes is a major problem, you get some of the wax whether you want it or not. Out side windows must get crap from pollutants.

alright, i bleached my bath tub today, so i can take a bath, (it was pretty gross) i used soft scrub, and i let it set for 3 minutes, and i turned on the shower and got it all out. i put water in the bath tub to help remove some traces of bleach, now, i want to know how long to leave the water sit before i can drain it, and take a bath.

I dont want to end up with a rash or something because the bleach is still in there, so i need to take all the extra precautions.

I have this pair of pants that I absolutley love. Well I love the look and feel of them, but hate the lent that collects on them during the day. I always have to spend time removing the lent before I wear them and before the end of the day they are covered again. I mean by lunch time I look a mess. I would love to know a permenant way to remove lent from my clothes. Or just a way to keep lent away for the whole day. Anyone?

Is a complete tip. Literally, i'm just not a tidy person at all!
I keep half-tidying it and then getting bored so it gets messy again, I want to tidy it now but I know that I will get sidetracked. Any ideas on how to keep focused on it?
Thanks in advance <3

I have been thinking about hiring a cleaning company to come into my home and clean. I know that they dust, vacuum, clean windows...What else do they all do? About how much would it run for them to come into your home once every month or once every two months? Is it worth them coming into your home and clean, or should I just do it myself? Do they also organize? Do they clean hardwood floors?

I was hemming my daughter's pants with hemming tape and didn't realize some was sticking out. Now it is stuck on my iron. Is there any way to get it off, or do I have to get a new iron?

My hubbie thinks I am mad. I have three boxes of latex gloves dotted around our house and I wear them for pretty much everything. I just find stuff like cooking raw meat, emptying trash and cleaning the house without them gross. I think I wear about 4-5 pairs a day. Is this THAT weird?

My three girls love to be read to in the tub. But, after a while, the books get all moldy and gross! I've tried cleaning them with bleach and I've even put them in the washing machine. Nothing works; I'd hate to have to throw them out. Help!

especially major appliances. I moved my dishwasher and sprayed it down, good cleaned it up good, thought it was rid of bugs. When I went back and opened it up it was full of bugs and the next two times it was. I think it is clean now. In the mean time I have been killing bugs all over the house. Everytime I go to the new house I see at least one. There were none before. I still have a fridge, washer and dryer and computer and several tv sets and games to move. I can leave most of everything else. These appliance were bought this year and I cannot afford to buy new. Please help me!

I have a large deep freeze that got unplugged for several days and no one knew about it. It had meat and ice cream and other food go bad inside it and the smell is unbearable. I've cleaned it with tons of water, Pine-Sol and Nature's Miracle. I've left it running with two bags of charcoal and baking soda in it. It still reeks. I'm in serious need of advice!

I think it's been there for years. I scraped off the big pieces (eww!) but there's still some residue.

I'm pretty sure that I read a trick once in a women's magazine or housekeeping advice column somewhere. I've got the shoes in there, now, along with the jeans that I washed them with. The dryer starts fine, but, after a few minutes, the shoes knock the door open, stopping the dryer altogether, until I notice it again later.

Any tricks to keep those shoes from opening the door?
