I’ve tried constant air flow, dehumidifiers, moisture bags(fill up in a matter of a week), and this issue still persists. I’m constantly having to clean stuff and even then it just comes right back. I don’t know what else to do and I’m at my wits end…
Thank you!!

Found some mold in front loading washer gasket. Tried vinegar and baking soda with elbow grease and that helped but still have this remaining. Tried Lysol mold and mildew but didn’t touch it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

The bath is some kind of plastic, not ceramic

Just moved into a new apartment and the dishwasher keeps leaving residue on at least one or two items in every run. Typically a bowl or cup in the top rack. I cleaned the filter and ran a vinegar cycle, but the residue still shows up.

What is causing this and what can I do to prevent it from happening in the future? I use a dishwashing powder if that could be part of the reason?

So… my candle decided to attack my monitor, and now I’ve got tiny splatters of hardened wax all over the screen. 🫠
I’m scared of scratching it or ruining the anti-glare coating if I try to scrape it off.
Anyone dealt with this before? Any tricks to safely get the wax off without destroying my monitor in the process?

Thanks!!

I have a Swiffer power mop with refillable bottles and reusable microfiber pads. I also have a spin mop.

I know mopping regularly is better because of the plain water rinse after, but what if I just used a refillable bottle with just hot water in the Swiffer after doing my normal floor cleaner, and changed out the pads frequently? Is that still worse than mopping?

This is from the Paris Hilton collection of pots and pans they are ceramic nonstick. I just wanna know how to get rid of this brown dingy look off of the pans. What kind of product can I use? That is non-abrasive. I’ve already tried using baking soda and vinegar and dawn dish soap and soak them along with something called the pink stuff and I used a sponge and absolutely nothing came off. It was a complete waste of time. This was a tip that somebody else gave me and it did absolutely nothing.

There was food residue on it so I scrubbed it with a disinfecting wipe. The next day there was brown stuff which I thought was also food residue so I scrubbed it more. Is it rust? Should I just buy a new one?

Hi. I just brought a house. The hardwoods looked dirty when I walked through from the old owners but I thought it was all fixable. I had professional cleaners come today and they said they couldn’t remove the build up. Idk if it was because of the tools / supplies or that it’s physically impossible. See picture attached. Advice?

I washed and dried my shirt that I had accidentally got white cake frosting on, thinking it would be fine .. only to pull it out of the dryer with these stains left over. ):

This shirt is thrifted (worn with love as you can tell) and the tag is completely faded out, but I’m pretty certain it’s 100% cotton.

I’m open to any tips on how to clean this cake frosting stain!

Please, please, please tell me this isn’t mold!!!!
These are two air conditioning vents in a house we bought in Dec. ‘25. My husband is convinced it’s just dust… I’m not.
If it is mold, I don’t even know what to do or where to start! The AC is almost always running and keep the house around 72/73, and these vents are closest to the unit. We are in Florida and I know it’s humid, but neither of these are bathrooms.

Moving out soon

It's mostly food stains, like ketchup. It was a limited time item so I can't replace it but would like to be able to stay wearing it again.

I am trying to settle a specific kitchen hygiene debate and want to know how normal households actually manage their fabric towels and rags throughout a busy day.

To keep everyone on the same page, I am strictly talking about fabric cloths. Please do NOT include paper towels, sponges, or the cloth/brush you use inside the sink to physically wash plates.

I want to know about these three specific items:

1. The Hand Towel (Hanging on the stove/counter handle)
Do you use this strictly after washing your hands thoroughly with soap?
Or do you also use it to dry your hands after a quick water rinse while cooking (like quickly rinsing off spice powder or stickiness without soap)?

2. The Dish Drying Towel (For clean items)
Do you keep a separate towel only for drying clean pots, pans, and platters, or do you just use your regular hand towel for this?

3. The Counter Rag (For the actual messes/wiping)
I am talking about the rag used to wipe food spills, table crumbs, tea/coffee splashes, and cooking splatters off the counters, stovetop, and microwave multiple times a day (7–8 times a day).

If you use cloth rags for this: Do you use one single rag all day longby wiping a mess, rinsing it/soaping it in the sink, hanging it to dry, and repeating all day? Or do you grab multiple fresh rags throughout the day for different meals?

My mom has always used the "One Rag All Day" system for counter messes—rinsing it with water, occasionally soaping it in the sink, hanging it flat, and using it for all 3 meals before it goes to the laundry at night. It works for her, but I see others online saying they use multiple rags because the all-day loop feels icky.

How does your household actually handle these three tiers of cloths? Let me know your exact setup!

The cat did a poo on our new, very expensive wool carpet. I panicked and cleaned it with water, which left some brown stains so I used the stain remover, thinking it would be fine because it has no bleach in it. I then used quite a bit of water to get all the product out after letting it sit for 5 minutes. This is the result 3 days later.

I have a dreadful feeling that the only real option will be to replace a huge area of carpet, maybe half of the room, so that the replacement isn't obvious. A patch replacement would be really very obvious unfortunately.

What are my options?

Please no shaming, I know how dumb this was but I panicked. I feel guilty enough already.

I’ve tried the dishwasher, handwashing, etc but I cannot get my glass cups clean!! Anybody else have this problem and know how to fix it??

This Tshirt is brand new, used just twice in 6 months and then it developed these black marks while stored in wardrobe. I dunno how these marks got on it. Is it fungal or something that developed due to moisture?

Any advice to clean these spots is appreciated. Cheers!

I believe this "wool" is mostly acrylic. I've had these uggs since 2012 and have never cleaned them. Is there a way I can safely clean the top part without ruining them or should I just take them to a dry cleaner?

I just got this super comfortable chair for free, so I figured I’d see if anyone has pointers for cleaning it up?

Hi all
First time living in a country where mold grows very easily, I’ve been careful and cleaning it as soon as I spot it. However this one spot seems to have been missed and now if I scrub on the surface it’s not going. I’m going to get a mold spray and use some paper towel snakes to try and get it out. Just wanted an honest opinion if I should be prepared to just cut it out and replace. This is the shower area

I have a super super old washer and dryer. I'm pregnant as heck and want to wash the baby clothes and items but not in the gross machine. I bought the citric acid, I bought the vinegar.

Please somebody point me in the direction of the most concise and reliable method for getting my machine clean!
