  1. I am pleased with the cleaning hacks, but I’m very disappointed in the fact that I couldn’t print a single one. I’m elderly (80 years) and can’t write everything out anymore. I was hoping to print this great information.

    1. I have neuropathy so I don’t write things out either. I take a screen shot and put them in a designated folder in my photos. Super easy to find that way and a lot less hassle.

  2. To remove stains from hard surfaces.
    Blue Dawn baking soda white vinegar
    In a sealable plastic containee.make a paste of baking soda and Blue Bawn.apply with a sponge to area to be cleaned a good ammount,then spray with vinegar which will start a chemical reaction.let sit 5 10 minutes and scrub with a stuff brush..rinse clean and finish with a spray of straight vinegar wipe till clean..this also can be used with blue dawn and hydrogen peroxide to eliminate mold.

  4. Don’t you hate fruit files and drain flies?? Get a glass jar, put apple cider vinegar, sugar and a few drops of dish soap… Mix well, add water if desired. Put near fruit or where you see the pesky flies and viola, they are attracted to the smell of the vinegar and sugar, fly into the concoction and die instantly. I just bought bandana and made the concoction and in a matter of a few hours I have caught 9 of them. Do not put the lid on, or plastic wrap as some recipes say to with holes in it, I tried that and didn’t catch a single one, I took off the plastic and within minutes I had caught a dozen…

    1. 1 cup hydrogen peroxide
      1 tbsp baking soda
      1/2 tsp. dawn dish soap

      mix in a squirt bottle. Apply to carpet. Let dry naturally.

  5. I greatly appreciate these hints. More than ever because they don’t contain chemicals . As we get older the uses of chemicals becomes harde . These were wonderful hints.

    1. I found that it left my floors dull. I hard-earned the floor with 1/2 cup white vinegar and water. It works very good.

  6. Here’s one how do you get rid of cigarette smoke from walls without to much fumes that stink I have pets and do live here .

    1. When I was married, my husband smoked like a chimney and made the walls yellow. I always used Scrubbing Bubbles to remove the stain. It worked great for me. Also works great outside the house if you happen to have some green mold that starts to grow on the siding in wet areas.

    2. I just used plain warm water with a little bit of pine scent cleaner. Used a clean cloth (gloves if you need to) with a up/down motion START FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WALLS and work your way up. If you start on top, as the water runs down, it will streak the dirty area and it is a bit more difficult to clean the lower part of the wall. Hope this helps.

    3. Hot water and Dawn dish soap. Wipe with rag. Then to freshen the walls paint over. I had to do it before.

    4. Dawn dish soap water. I have also used ammonia but that stinks. Use a sponge mop pulling down from top of wall, let sit for a bit then wipe with clean water. I use 2 different buckets and change your rinsing bucket often. Also, wiping with paper towels removes the brown water from walls.

    1. There is no way to actually clean a home in 30 min. Unless it’s a one-bed studio apartment, that requires no carpet cleaning.
