That way, if there are streaks, you 'll be able to tell which side they're on. Always wash windows on a cloudy day. Direct sunlight causes washing fluid to dry too quickly and leave a residue.
- Sleep is very important to overall health--unless you maintain a regular sleep schedule, a healthful diet and all your other immune efforts will go to waste.
- Here's a recipe for cleaning pest-infected plants: Mix rubbing alcohol with 1/2 tsp. of dishwashing liquid. Dilute with water and use to spray on leaves. Or mix cayenne pepper, Tabasco sauce, jalapeno juice and garlic extract and dilute with water.
- To remove wax stains from carpet, break out the iron. Take a thick, absorbent paper towel, fold it in half and place over the wax stain. Press straight down on the towel with an iron set on medium heat to prevent scorching the carpet. Do not move the iron around, as that will spread the wax. As the heat from the iron melts the wax, the paper towel will absorb it. For wax stains on clothing, tablecloths and other items, put the item in the freezer. The wax will become very brittle and easy to flake off.
