Here are two awesome tips submitted by readers on getting out some of the toughest and nastiest stains ever - baby stains!

Baby Stain Remover - TIPS
"Try mixing some dry meat tenderizer with a small amount of water and then rub onto the formula stains. Scrub a little and let it set a little while. Then wash as usual. Used to work for me when I was a young mom. Hope it works." Submitted by Peg.
"Fill your washer with the hottest possible water....add one cup of bleach and a cup and a half of ganulated automatic dishwashing detergent...and a little laundry detergent...add the clothes and agitate for a few minutes and turn off...let sit overnight. Then run the washer full cycle...stains should be removed and this also works on perspiration stains on adult's clothing." Submitted by Janice

Two Ways to Remove Pet Hair from Furniture

Here are two helpful hints for any pet owners who are faced with the problem that we all are - pet fur on the furniture, and how to remove it:

Removing Pet Fur/Hair from Furniture
1. "Tell the reader that an alternative to the rollers is using a washable/cleanable mit or brush. They can be found at places like Pet's Mart for around $5." (Submitted by Kendy)
2. "For my couch and chair, I use a rubber glove and a small bucket of water (to be able to easily rinse off the glove). It works wonderfully - I get the fur and the layer of dust that settles on everything. Perhaps you could find a larger rubber item, like a piece of piping or maybe some shoe covers, and just dip it/them into a bucket of water, give a quick shake, and then run it over the carpet. The fur will stick together and ball up, making it easy to remove. Also, buy one of those shedding loops and a couple of different brushes, and brush your dog outside AT LEAST once a week. I'd also try bathing more often, if you have the time."(Submitted by Jennifer)
