Dryer sheets are the best at making even the most boring scentless laundry smell really good. All you have to do is place 3-5 dryer sheets inside the dryer and then place the laundry inside of it to dry. After drying them you’ll realize that your laundry smells really good.

Extra tips on how to make your laundry smell good

Always clean inside your washing machine

This is really important. The number of dirty clothes that goes inside the washing machine almost every week can automatically make it smell bad after a while. Sometimes you will see a build-up of laundry detergent inside the washer and cleaning that away will automatically make it smell better.

Always use the hot water settings when washing your clothes

This is really important. If your clothes or linens can handle hot water then you should use it. This is because the warm water will get rid of any bad odor that’s coming from inside the washer which will prevent your clothes from smelling bad.

Absolutely no one likes when their shower drain smell like rotten eggs trust me. I remember when this happened to me before and for a whole week I was trying everything to fix but I couldn’t get the right solution until I came up with the best ways to get rid of the smell. These solutions that I’ve mentioned below should work for you as well. So if your shower drain smells like eggs and you want to fix that then this article/post will help you to do so.

Why does my shower drain smell like rotten eggs

Most times when shower drains smell like eggs it’s usually because there is a lot of gunk and hair inside of them. You see when you shower or wash your hair in the shower the hair will get stuck inside the drain and when this happens, water and soap will get stuck on them and after a while, they will begin to smell.

How to deodorize shower drain manually

There are two important ways to deodorize a shower drain manually.

1. Remove any gunk, mold, and hair

Use a drain cleaner to remove any gunk and hair that’s inside the shower drain. Sometimes there will be hair on the cover, just make sure to remove it. Make sure to clean the moldy areas as well.

2. Use liquid disinfectant

If you don’t see any hair and gunk then it’s best to pour 1-2 cups of liquid disinfectant (Lysol or fabuloso) into the drain. This will make the drain smell way better than before.

These two methods aren’t permanent methods. So if you want to make sure your shower does not smell again then you should check out these next solutions.

Baking soda and vinegar

Pour some baking soda into the drain and then pour vinegar in it as well. If you are able to remove the shower cover (I don’t recommend doing this without professional help) then you should mix the baking soda and vinegar before pouring it into the drain, and after doing that you should use a cleaning brush to remove the mold and gunk.

Mix bleach and water

If you arent able to remove the drain cover then it’s best to mix bleach with equal parts warm water and pour it inside the shower drain. Doing this will immediately get rid of the rotten egg smell that’s coming from inside the drain.

If you have tried all of these methods but they still haven’t worked then it’s best to contact a company that specializes in cleaning these types of things.

It really sucks when you are enjoying yourself by having a drink of wine and suddenly for whatever reason it spills all over your carpet. What makes it worse is that the carpet is very bright colored so the big red wine stain will stick out more than anything else. Cleaning carpets isn’t too hard to do especially when cleaning stains from one. In this post, I will be showing you how to get red wine out of your carpet.

The first thing to do

Whenever there is a spill on the carpet you have to immediately treat it. In this case, since we’re dealing with the red wine we have to get some paper towels and a clean cloth to absorb the wine.  While this may not get rid of the stain it is still really important to do since it makes the cleaning process way easier.

Use Dish soap and hydrogen peroxide

This combination is the best for cleaning alcohol stains out of carpets and since wine has a lot of alcohol in it; this should be really easy. Pour some of the hydrogen peroxide onto the carpet then add a few tablespoons of dish soap onto it as well. Now use a clean cloth and blot the stain out of the carpet. You might have to do this multiple times in order for the red wine stain to disappear. Also if you’re planning to do this multiple times it’s best to use water instead of hydrogen peroxide the second time.

Vinegar and baking soda

These two make the best cleaning combination. You can clean almost any surface when you mix both vinegar and baking soda and in this case, they are an excellent choice for getting red wine stains out of your carpet. To do this all you have to do is pour some vinegar over the red wine stain and immediately sprinkle some baking soda on it as well. Let the mixture sit on the stain for 1-2 minutes then after that use a clean microfiber cloth to blot the stain or use a cleaning brush.

Will baking soda bleach the carpet?

While Baking soda won’t necessarily bleach your carpet if you leave too much on it for a very long time then you might see some sort of discoloration.

Vinegar and dish soap

This is yet another great way of cleaning the red wine stains out of your carpet. To do this you need to squeeze some dish soap onto the stain and then pour some vinegar on it as well. Now use a brush (toothbrush or cleaning brush) to scrub the red wine spillage out of your carpet, but make sure you are not spreading it. Keep doing this until the stain is no longer visible, however, it’s best to start using water instead of vinegar if you are planning to do this multiple times.

Salt

If the red wine stain is already dried up then it’s best to wet the stain and add a decent amount of salt to it. After doing this make sure to leave the salt on the stain until the next morning. This is a great way to absorb the red wine out of your carpet without blotting. The next thing you should do is vacuum the salt. If you realize that there is still some stain left then it’s best to get a damp cloth and clean it.

Stain remover

If you don’t want to use any of the tips I’ve mentioned then it’s best to use a regular carpet stain remover to do the job. You can get these at your local store or online.

Conclusion

Now that you made it to the end of the article you’ll realize that cleaning red wine out of your carpet isn’t so hard after all. Also if you are interested in how to deep clean your entire carpet then you should click here.

Whether it’s by smoking or being in an area filled with smoke like a campfire, your clothes will eventually smell like it too. It’s even worse if its smells like cigarettes. Cleaning smoke-scented clothes are way easier than you think. In this article, I will show you how to get the smoke smell out of your clothes.

How to get smoke smell out of clothes

Wash with Baking soda

Place the cigarette-smelling clothes inside the washer and add the best laundry detergent you have. Then add 1 cup of baking soda inside the washer onto the clothes., then wash them normally. After washing them place them inside the dryer for 60 minutes.

Air out your clothes

This is one of the best and easiest ways to get the smoke smell out of your clothes. All you have to do is hang the clothes outside so that they can air dry for a couple of hours. Doing this will get rid of the smoke smell of the garments.

Soak them

This is yet another easy method in this article. The first thing you need to do is get a bucket filled with warm water and add liquid detergent to it. Then place the cigarette-smelling clothes inside the bucket of water and let them smoke for 1-2 hours. After the time has passed place them inside the washer and wash them normally.

Wash them with vinegar

This is very similar to the baking soda method, but instead of using baking soda, you are going to use vinegar. Place the garments inside the washer and add 1/2 cup of distilled vinegar into the water (not directly onto the clothes). Then add some laundry detergent into the washer and wash using warm water.

Wash with lemon extract

This might seem weird but it’s a great way of getting rid of nasty smoke odors out of almost any clothing. Just squeeze some lemons into a cup until you have around 1/4-1 cup of lemon juice. Now pour the lemon juice into the washer with the clothes inside of it and wash on a regular cycle. The lemon juice will even get rid of any other bad odors that were coming from the clothes.

Use Dryer sheets and fabric softener

Place the clothes inside the washer and add 2 cups of fabric softener. After washing them place them in the dryer and use around 4 dryer sheets. This will definitely get rid of the smoke odor that was in your clothes and also makes them smell ten times better than before.

There is no denying that vinegar is an amazing product. I mean you can use it for a lot of things. It can be used to flavor or clean foods, it can be used as a stain remover, and also as a deodorizer. However while it does have a lot of great uses, the smell can be a bit unbearing at times especially if you used it on your clothes or floor. So don’t worry because in this article I will show you how to get rid of the vinegar smell.

How to get rid of the vinegar smell

Getting rid of the scent of vinegar inst too difficult. There are many ways to do this but I’ve chosen 5 of the best methods to use.

Light scented candles

This is rather a simple one, isn’t it? I mean all you have to do is choose your favorite scented candles light them and place them where the vinegar scent is strong. However, while this method will make you forget the smell of vinegar, it only masks it, which means after the candles burn out you’ll still smell the vinegar. But you might be asking why did I include it on this list, and the reason is that it is still useful; If you are having guests over and you want the vinegar smell to be masked but you don’t know where it’s coming from, just light a few scented candles and the smell will no longer be present at least for an hour.

Use disinfectant

There are two types of disinfectant you can use; Lysol disinfectant spray or fabuloso liquid disinfectant. The difference between both of these is that the spray will clean better but the liquid disinfectant smells better. Whichever one you’re using you will still mask or get rid of the vinegar smell. Just apply the disinfectant onto where the vinegar scent is or if you don’t know where it’s coming from then just wipe the tables with the disinfectant.

Boil some citrus

Boiling citrus is a great way of masking the scent of vinegar. All you have to do is peel the skin off some oranges, lemons, or limes and place them inside the pot of boiling hot water. The scent of citrus will eliminate the scent of vinegar.

Let the air flow through

This is the simplest method on this list. To air out your home all you have to do is open up the windows and doors (you can only open up the windows if you want). Doing this will let out all the trapped odor that was inside.

Wash clothes with fabric softener

If your clothes have the scent of vinegar all over them, don’t worry because all you have to do is place them in the washer and add a few cups of your favorite fabric softener and let them wash.

We all know that Windex is an amazing product that can clean any glass surface pretty well. But sometimes people might not have access to it, whether it’s because they live in a different country or maybe they don’t have a bottle with them at the moment but still wants to clean their mirrors. Don’t worry because in this article I will show you how to clean a mirror without Windex.

Vinegar

Vinegar is an amazing product that can clean basically any surface. So if you want to clean a dirty mirror without Windex, don’t worry because you can use vinegar to do the job. When cleaning a mirror with vinegar you first need to get a clean microfiber cloth. Make sure that the cloth is damp and then pour some vinegar onto it. After doing that, you should know to use the vinegar-soaked cloth to clean the mirror.

After cleaning the mirror use another dry microfiber cloth to wipe the mirror again.

Rubbing alcohol

Rubbing alcohol have a surprising amount of uses. It can be used as a deodorizer, disinfectant, etc. But did you know it can also be used as a glass cleaner as well? Rubbing alcohol and glass cleaner share a lot of properties so it makes sense that you can use (rubbing alcohol) as a substitute.

When cleaning a mirror with rubbing alcohol you first need to spray the rubbing alcohol onto the mirror and then use a microfiber cloth to clean it. When cleaning makes sure to get rid of the water stains and toothpaste stains as well.

Warm water

I know there are a lot of people that don’t like using water to clean any glass surface because it might cause some streaks on it but this isn’t always the case. If you use warm water or steam you’ll see similar results to that of a Windex glass cleaner. To use warm water to clean your mirrors all you have to do is turn on the faucet and catch the warm water in a spray bottle or the better method is to turn on the faucet or shower and leave the warm water running for a while which will eventually cause the mirror to be watery. THen use a microfiber cloth to clean the mirror.

Shaving cream

Apply a bit of shaving cream onto the mirror then use a microfiber cloth to wipe it.

Disinfectant wipes

Get some Lysol disinfectant wipes and use them to clean the mirror. This will remove any hard water and toothpaste stain.

Liquid dish soap

Apply some dish soap onto a window cleaner and use it to wipe down the mirror.
