Don't use expensive proprietary cleaners on ceramic hobs, use a value brand cream cleanser and finish off by buffing up with a few drops of white vinegar on a soft cloth to shine it up.

Need suggestion. I had a fire in my kitchen which has left the walls and the roof stained with smoke. I could wipe off only a part of it though not clearly. was wondering if there is a way to clean the walls to avoid repainting. TRY USING A SUGAR SOAP SOLUTION :)

I have seen a few microwave solutions that include a bowl of water ad a slice of lemon and I agree but would like to add that if you alow the bowl to sit for five to ten minutes and then come into the microwave with a clean dry cloth starting from the top nearly every bit will just wipe away from the soaking in the steam.

This one is simple and effective. I clean my bathroom by adding a small amount of bleach and dish detergent to a bucket of warm water. I sprinkle baking soda on surfaces and wipe them down with the solution in the bucket. My tip is this: I dunk the hem of the plastic shower curtain liner into the bucket before starting. The solution settles into the heam and prevents mildew. I also do the same with the plastic window curtain which is inside the tub enclosure.

I had a bad ink stain on my new carpet once . My son's pen exploded on the carpet and it was days before I found it. Milk, Milk got the stain out.I poured some in a bowl and used a white clean cloth and soaked it in the milk,then I gently rubbed the cloth into the ink stain. I used a steam cleaner afterwards to finish the job. But not until there was no trace of ink left in the carpet.But Milk did the job.

Children's toys, get you kids to clean them. Bring them in the tub with bubble bath and scrubber, or outside play in the baby pool with warm water and bubbles.

Heavily Iced Freezer: Empty & Unplug Freezer. Sit a pan of HOT water inside the freezer. Before you begin scrubbing, Throw a hand towel in the pan. Wring out the thoroughly wet hand towel around the perimeter top edge of the freezer. Use a PLASTIC putty knife to separate the ice from the wall of the freezer. Ice sheets pop off the wall. Proceed to clean with baking soda & dish soap. Freezer cleaned in under 5 minutes! Now... to get the foods organized... hummmm.

To clean burnt food from under the stove, try a mixture of baking soda, salt, and water. It works wonders as a cleaner, and if you make a separate batch, it can be used as toothpaste, as well!

Actually, this is a question. My tile floor in the kitchen is only a year old. This is the main floor where people enter the home from outside. The grout is suppose to be a light color. It is now a dark dirty color. How do I clean the grout to make it beige again? I've used ammonia and clorox.

I add a cap full of bleach, and a drop of dish washing liquid to hot water in my sink and soak my dishcloths over night. In the morning the cloths are clean and sanitized and the sink is sparkling and disinfected.
