For spots on carpets, spray the area with Club Soda, wait a couple of minutes and blot with a towel... Repeat if necessary... The club soda will bubble the dirt to the surface and then you will wipe it away.

I have a question rather than a tip - How do you end the odor of cat spray that has seeped in through basement walls? The previous owner of our home had outdoor cats that attracted amorous male cats. When we experience a damp period, the smell of stale cat urine penetrates our basement walls and leaves or back guest room unusable and smelling of old cat. The walls are finished with dry wall, so attacking the actual cement walls from inside is not an option. I had once read that bleach along the outside walls will eventually cure the problem, but thought perhaps our saged experts here might have an alternative or clearer answer. Thank you to all!

Hello from Las Vegas, Nevada USA. To remove nail polish from rugs and carpeting. Simply pour some isopropol alcohol on a clean rag and spray hair spray on the dirty area, then rub. You will have to repeat this process until the nail polish has been completely removed. (TEST THE CARPET OR RUG FOR DISCOLORATION BEFORE BEGINNING THIS PROCESS.)

This tip is really neat. I have a friend wrote in a knitting forum about what she uses Listerine for. She uses it to get rid of Mosqitos. She swears that it really works. So I tried it. And you know it does. She said that you should spray the yard & your around your door to keep them from flying in. Also spray it on yourself, too. I also heard it great for cleaning too because it kill germs,too.

To Lorimay, who has grease stains on glass: Have you tried the K&A standard of 1 part vinegar, 1 part warm water, and a few squirts of liquid soap? The vinegar and soap are both great grease fighters. I have just used this on a very old mucky sash window I picked up at a flea market (read: picture frame) and it turned out very well. Mix the ingredients in a spray bottle and use crumpled newspaper to wipe. This will take a little bit of elbow grease, but it works like a charm.

For mold on the ceiling in the bathroom: dilute bleach in a spray bottle with water and spray away. The bleach kills the mold and fades any stains without need of scrubbing.

as for the baskets under burners on an electric stove... you can buy new ones very cheap. If your oven is a self cleaning...add the baskets in for the whole cleaning cycle. Or you can get black stove pipe paint and spray paint them like new.

I live in the US. There is a product in the market called Shower Fresh. I spray it on my glass shower doors, tiles, entire tub/shower space, after every shower. I rarely have to really scrub my shower or tub. I wonder if there is a way to make something at home that would work as well, but save money. Any suggestions?

After defrosting a freezer that is not frost free wipe it dry and spray with a spray cooking oil so the next time you defrost it does not take as long as the ice loosens up very quick.

Buy rain x for your car windshield. Place in a clean spray bottle and use to clean your bathroom fixtures, your countertops and bathroom mirrors. Using this once a month will keep your bathroom shiney and will keep your mirrors from fogging up.

To remove biro from a leather suite, spray hairspray, and wipe away. It works on my cream suite. (I'd try it somewhere you cant see first as a precaution)
