Carpet Cleaning Tip — Here’s a safe, inexpensive way to clean stains and odors from all types of carpeting: Sprinkle baking soda onto the carpet and then use a plant mister to spray the area with hot water. Immediately scrub the carpet with a stiff-bristle scrub brush. Wait for the baking soda to dry, then vacuum the carpet clean.

Kill Static Cling — Clothes dryer sheets (like Bounce) are designed to soften fabrics, but they also do a great job of eliminating static cling, which makes them useful household cleaning chores. For example, use dryer sheets to clean TVs and computer screens. They’re also great for wiping down dirty dusty window blinds. The surfaces come out clean and they don’t attract dust as quickly because of the anti-static property of the dryer sheets.
