Dirty Talk

louise....if your tub is either ceramic/porcelain or fiberglass type, try dilute white vinegar, spray on and let sit for a while, then soap using either a grease cutting dish washing detergent or a shampoo for oily hair without built in conditioner. Rinse well. For stubborn rings,a paste of water and baking soda or those new erasure cleaning pads ( Mr. Clean) and some elbow grease should do it. Let me know how it goes.....Sparky

using fabric conditioner watered down works very well when shining your taps and tiles it smells great too

Some doggie toys can be safely cleaned in the top rack of your dishwasher. Fabric dog toys can be thrown into a lingerie bag and cleaned in your washing machine. Don't use fabric conditioner, though! Regular washing will keep harmful bacteria from building up on the toys, possibly infecting Fido's teeth and gums.

Keep your fluff filter clean: If you use fabric softener/conditioner in your laundry, be sure to clean your filter regularly. Conditioner adheres to the filter over time which restricts air flow. As a result, your dryer will have to work harder and hotter, resulting in longer drying time, higher energy bills, and can possibly damage the heating element or thermostat. Every month or so, pull out the filter and wipe off the fluff. Put a few drops of water on the filter. If the water doesn't trickle straight through, then your filter is clogged. A quick bath in washing up liquid and warm water (don't forget to rinse) will remove any buildup.

when tumble drying your clothes put in a damp cloth with fabric conditioner on it. This helps remove creases in clothes and makes ironing easier.

Stop dust building up on a tv/computer screen by putting a few drops of fabric conditioner in some water and wiping on the screen. You'll be amazed how much better the picture is without dust!
