They will make them VERY SICK! The best way to rid your pet of Fleas is to use a Flea Comb. Comb your pet, remove everything from the comb and drop into a cup of warm water with some dishsoap.

When it's time to change the litter, simply lift out the bag, tie it off and throw it all away. To cut down on the odor from your cat's litter box mix in some baking soda When cleaning up cat urine - DON'T use anything that contains ammonia. The ammonia only attracts the cat right back to the spot to pee again. If painting the concrete steps last time made them slippery, skid proof them with a new coat of paint.

Clear the sink drain by dropping three Alka Seltzer tablets down the drain followed by a cup of White Vinegar. Wait a few minutes, then run the hot water. The nylon string bags that fruit and vegies cone in can be folded together to make great fake loophas Dirty grout - Try Listerine Frustrated with shower curtains tearing off of hooks?

Problem solved, no more tearing from hooks. To get the indentations out of your carpet caused by heavy furniture, lay an ice cube on the indention when you go to bed, let it melt completely and check it the next morning, your carpet should fluff right back up. Another way to remove indentations caused by furniture rearrangement, apply moisture from a steam iron and brush the nap of the carpet. To prevent the wax from melting and sticking to the inside of a votive candle holder, pour a bit of water in the holder, then place the candle on top. If you forgot the water and there's wax stuck to your candle holder, pop it in the freezer for an hour. The wax will chip right off. Roaches in your house?

When burning expensive pillar candles or 3 wick candles, let them burn down just far enough to place a small tea light candle in the hole and not be seen over the lip. Then just light the tea light from then on. Your expensive candle will last forever and noone will know! Put the candles in the freezer when the candle is done melting and the wax will come out of the holder better. WD 40 cleans most marks off white plastic,(like patio chairs and tables).

Tape the tube to the end of a vacuum cleaner wand to reach cobwebs in ceiling corners or dust freeloading on ceiling fans. Reach all the way under beds and furniture, or flatten the roll to vacuum narrow crevices. Use a napkin holder to hold all your bills for the month.

Instead of a pastry brush, use a new 1 1/2-inch wide paintbrush to brush on barbecue sauce and melted butter. When baking in a glass pan, reduce oven temperature by 25 degrees F. If you like canned soup but think it's too salty - add a few chunks of cut raw potato before you cook it. The potato will absorb alot of the salt - remove it before eating. When using walnuts for baking: place them in a plastic bag with just a pinch of flower & shake. Keeps walnuts spaced through out the cake, etc. They will not all go to the bottom. If you want creamier macaroni and cheese just substitute sour cream for the milk A cup of vinegar in a cup while cooking fish helps keep that fishy odor away. To cook spagetti, thin spagetti, angel hair, etc.: use your fry pan. You put about 2-3" of water, heat it to boiling, and add the pasta. If the pan is a small one, you can break the stuff in half. This way, you only heat enough water to cook the pasta, instead of 4" you don't need. Put on a kitchen rubber glove to open stubborn jar and bottle lids Make your kids meals a little more exciting - Shape hamburger in a hotdog shape, fry in pan, and serve on a hotdog bun with desired toppings.

To remove ball point pen ink (any color) from washable, cottonblended fabrics, place an old, thick, terry cloth bath towel underneath the material that has been stained. Saturate the ink stain with any brand of hairspray. The ink will go through the fabric, into the towel underneath. If the stain doesn't disappear right away, repeat process. Throw garment and towel into the wash, on cold. Ink is gone. ** DO NOT USE THIS PROCEDURE ON SILK, SATIN, ETC., as the hairspray may permanently remove the color from the fabric. If unsure, do a test run on an inside seam. For crayon marks on walls get a damp rag dipped in baking soda-hardly any elbow grease! For permanent marker on countertops or appliances use rubbing alcohol on a paper towel,marks will be gone. To get stains out of white clothes use powdered dishwasher soap (like Casscade) and bleach. Add half cup of each to washer. Best for baby clothes. Use Clorox Oxygen Action or OxyClean! - These products are great! Sprinkle some baking soda on it and use a wet cloth to wipe it up. It comes off very easy!! Use Orange Cleaner - spray, let sit for about a minute, wipe up! Koolaid Stains on Carpet just pour table salt on the wet area and watch it bring the stain right up. Vacuum the salt and repeat until all is gone. Spray it with Lysol Antibacterial Kitchen Cleaner. Let sit a few minutes, then gently blot until the stain is gone. This really only works on the fresh Kool-aid. Once it's a dry stain, it won't work nearly as well Baby Wipes work wonders in removing all kinds of carpet stains, and no toxic chemicals to worry about! Blood Stains Try plain salt water To get a blood stain out use peroxide. Pour it directly on the stain and when it stops bubbling, blot it up with a rag soaked in cold water(not warm or hot water).
