Boil it. The old fashioned "green" way of sanitizing laundry without bleach is to simply boil it.

New front loading washers have a sanitizing cycle where the water is heated and sanitizes your clothes.

The little brown bottle of Lysol, add one cup to your wash load. It too will sanitize your laundry. However, the odor from the Lysol will need to be washed out, and then add some fabric softener to mask any residual odor of the sanitizer.

Pine sol original type, added to HOT water only wash load will sanitize your laundry. But there are issues with the smell, though not nearly as bad as the little brown jug of Lysol!

Common elements used in laundry detergents include surfactants (to remove dirt and stains), enzymes (to break down proteins and other organic compounds), bleaching agents (to whiten fabrics), and fragrances. Other elements may include pH adjusters, salts, and optical brighteners.

Two cleaning chemicals that are flammable are acetone and hydrogen peroxide. It is important to use these chemicals in a well-ventilated area and away from any sources of ignition to prevent any fire hazards.

Dawn typically produces more bubbles than Ajax due to its formula being more concentrated and designed specifically for creating suds and cutting through grease effectively. However, both soaps are effective at cleaning dishes and removing food residue.

Phosphoric acid based products will directly react with calcium and rust stains. Something like Edfred products unless it is a slate or marble shower, then caution is advised.

Well, for small marks, I know some professional illustrators scrape the surface of the paper with a sharp razor's edge to remove ink. This is sometimes used because white-out may not match the color of the paper used. I don't have a source to give you, though, sorry.

Water is absorbed into paper towels due to capillary action, which is the ability of a liquid to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of, or even in opposition to, external forces like gravity. The porous structure of paper towels allows water to be drawn into the tiny spaces between the fibers, where it is held by adhesive and cohesive forces.

Dish detergent can harm plant growth by disrupting the plant's cell membranes and causing damage to its overall structure. The chemicals in the detergent may also interfere with the plant's ability to absorb water and nutrients from the soil. In high concentrations, dish detergent can be toxic to plants and lead to stunted growth, wilting, or even death.

You can clean tarnished stainless steel flatware by soaking it in a solution of warm water and mild dish soap, then scrubbing with a soft cloth or sponge. For stubborn stains, you can make a paste of baking soda and water, apply it to the flatware, and scrub gently. Rinse well and dry thoroughly.

Hand sanitizer contains alcohol, which helps break down the chemicals in permanent marker ink, making it easier to remove from surfaces. The alcohol in hand sanitizer acts as a solvent, dissolving the ink and allowing it to be wiped away.

Some stains are more difficult to remove because they are oil-based or contain pigments that water alone cannot break down. Water may not be able to penetrate the stain or dissolve the molecules, making it harder to lift the stain from the surface. In these cases, using specialized cleaning products or techniques may be necessary to effectively remove the stain.

You can remove melted plastic from a dishwasher's heating element by first unplugging it from the power outlet and removing all of the dishes and racks. Leave the dishwasher door open to allow the coils to cool down. Place some ice in a plastic zipper bag and put it on top of the cooled plastic and leave for about 30 minutes. Remove the ice and using a plastic scraper, scrape the hardened plastic off the coils. Soak a cloth in an acetone-based nail polish remover and leave it on the element for 5 minutes. Use this cloth to scrub the remaining plastic off of the element then wipe the coils with a clean, damp cloth. Remove any remaining nail polish remover residue with a cloth that has been dipped in a solution of warm water and dish soap, then rinse the coils with water.

Silver can tarnish in as quickly as a few days in high humidity or when in contact with pollutants in the air. However, the rate of tarnishing can vary depending on the environment it is exposed to. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help slow down the tarnishing process.

Fingerprints are typically not left on eggs due to their smooth surface. However, if the eggshell has any moisture or oils on it, a fingerprint may be left temporarily. It is unlikely that a clear fingerprint could be lifted from an eggshell.

We had a smaller fire that started in the kitchen, but small as it was, it caused a ton of smoke. The fire cleaners recommended Surf POWDER detergent, and it worked like a charm. I also used a cheaper hepa air filter and that seemed to help a lot too. Polyester clothes may not smell clean depending on what kind of smoke it was. I know they told use that anything we had that was plastic may never come clean, and the baby's toys had to be thrown out because they would remain very toxic. But a lot of the smoke we had was from burning plastic and that's where the real toxicity comes from. I'd assume that polyester clothes would be the same way. Hope this helps you or anybody else.

To remove hairspray from varnished wood, mix equal parts of water and vinegar, and use a soft cloth to gently rub the affected area. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the varnish.

Sparkle typically refers to the reflection of light off a surface, often caused by tiny particles or material that are smooth or reflective, creating a shimmering effect. It can also be produced by things like glitter or sequins that reflect light in various directions.

To remove tacky glue from clothes, you can try placing the garment in the freezer for a few hours to harden the glue, then carefully scrape it off with a butter knife or similar tool. You can also try applying a small amount of rubbing alcohol or acetone to the affected area and gently rubbing it off with a cloth. Test a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure the fabric is not damaged.

Superglue is generally safe for external use on skin, but should not be ingested or used on open wounds. It can cause irritation if it comes into contact with the eyes or mouth. Always follow manufacturer instructions and seek medical advice if you have any concerns.

Urine is produced by the kidneys to remove waste and excess substances from the body, including urea, salts, and water. If urine is not eliminated from the body, these waste products can build up and lead to health problems like urinary tract infections or kidney stones. It is important to remove urine regularly to maintain a healthy balance of fluids and waste products in the body.

This sounds stupid but it works. Freeze the clothing and the wax is very easy to scrape off with a sharp knife, if scraping becomes difficult, refreeze the cloth.

That is how to get the wax off . If it leaves a grease stain behind , use brown paper , like grocery bags, put a sigle piece top and under the stain , go over with a warm iron [ don't scorch the paper ] and it will absorb the parafin or beeswax or tallow left in the fabric. Do this til the paper is absorbing no more candle grease .

Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle, then spray the solution onto the soap scum. Let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub the scum away with a sponge or brush. Rinse the area thoroughly with water when done.

The world's total water supply is estimated to be around 1.4 billion cubic kilometers, but only about 2.5% of this is fresh water. Of the fresh water, only a small fraction is easily accessible and clean for human use.
