What is best way to clean odor from rope hammock?
Machine Washing Holding the two hanging end rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock in half. Tie the hammock together with string just below the hanging rings. Tie the hammock together again, at the opposite end, and once more in the middle of the hammock. This should prevent the metal rings from becoming entangled with the string bed of the hammock, and the strings themselves from getting tangled as well. Put the tied up hammock into a pillowcase, and tie the pillowcase closed. Be sure to tie it securely, as the washing machine has rigorous agitation, and you do not want the hammock to come out of the pillow. Use mild detergent to wash. It's important to not use bleach. After washing, carefully remove hammock from pillowcase and untie. Hang up hammock and spread out as much as possible to dry completely. Hand Washing Holding the two hanging rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock in half. Tie the hammock together with string just below the hanging rings. Tie the hammock together again, at the opposite end, and once more in the middle of the hammock. This should prevent the metal rings from becoming entangled with the string bed of the hammock, and the strings themselves from getting tangled as well. In a large sink or bathtub, immerse the hammock in water mixed with a mild detergent. It's important to not use bleach. With your hands, agitate the water until you feel the hammock is clean. After washing, carefully untie and unfold the hammock. Hang up hammock and spread out to dry completely. Storage After first making sure your hammock is clean and completely dry, hold the two hanging rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock in half. Tie the hammock together with string just below the hanging rings, and again just above the point where the hammock bed begins, to prevent tangling. When storing, it's important to protect against moisture, soiling and critters. The easiest way to prevent these threats to your hammock is to use a storage bag made of outdoor, weather resistant, durable fabric that allows the hammock to breath. If you do not have a storage bag, hang the hammock from its metal rings in your garage or basement, or anywhere it will remain dry and out of the way. If you find any mold or mildew when you bring your hammock out the next season, we recommend using a mild detergent. Cleaning and storing hammocks with spreader bars (Rope and Fabric Hammocks) Machine Washing These types of hammocks usually have non-removable spreader bars, which makes machine washing not possible. Hand Washing Simply lay the hammock on your driveway or deck, any hard surface that is free of debris. Using a bucket of water with mild detergent, and a soft bristle brush, clean the hammock bed on one side, then flip the hammock and clean the other side the same way. This will allow you to inspect the rope or fabric as well. If you see dark, or black discoloration, (mold or mildew) be sure to clean thoroughly in that area. Once you have cleaned the hammock, hang it to dry. This is important, because making sure your hammock is dry, is the single greatest thing you can do, to insure many years of use for your hammock. Once a hammock becomes wet, the faster it dries, the better it will be for your hammock. Hang it in direct sunlight, as if you were going to use it. Hammocks with spreader bars allow all of the rope or fabric to be exposed when hanging normally. This should allow it to dry in one-two full days. Storage Before storing, you should clean and apply a protective spray to your hammock. After first making sure your hammock is completely dry, hold the two hanging rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock in half.

When mapping a cleaning route for your house which direction should you work?
Since you've so generously offered to clean my house, I'd recommend when mapping a cleaning route that you should work:
- have all cleaning supplies and rags in one easy to carry large bucket or tote
- start on one floor rather than running back and forth between floors
- have baskets or boxes with you--- collect items that belong in other rooms -- don't make repeated trips upstairs or to other rooms
- clean less messy, less dirty rooms first on the same floor
- always work from "top down" in rooms or hallways -- this means dust high things before dusting lower areas; wash walls from ceiling to floor
- always vacuum from "furthest away from the doorway" and work your way back out of the room
- In bathrooms, do "cleaner" areas first-- the toilet should always be last, before the floor.
- In kitchens, always wash, dry, and put away clean dishes FIRST so you get to counters, etc.
- Always wash floors last.
- Save big jobs for a different day, such as cleaning out the fridge, defrosting the freezer, cleaning the oven... moving or rearranging furniture, cleaning the basement; washing lawn furniture, etc.
Now, just go down the road in front of you, turn at the 2nd right, look for a big billboard that's blank, painted white, go 3.2 miles, turn left, go 0.2 tenths of a mile, turn right, at the Y in the road take the right branch, continue until the road meets a 'T' intersection, go left about 0.3 tenths of a mile then count 8 houses down on the right--- mine is the bluebird color behind the big red house with white shutters. I wouldn't mind if you start in the attic... and end in the basement. Oh, you might want to pack like you're going on a "work vacation", because you'll be cleaning for a week. I'll cook while you clean.
