Before you buy a drain-o type
product try this... 1. Put a generous amount of baking soda down the clogged drain. 2. Pour a generous amount of white vinegar (remember the volcanoes you made it elementary science projects? - this will be like that) 4. Wait for about 10-15 minutes 5. Flush with hot water This usually works for me. On a really stubborn clog, you might want to repeat the process. |

| Carpet Cleaning - BY HELENE |
| I don't own stock in Oxy-Clean but I can attest to its efficacy on carpet stains of all kinds, absolutely all kinds. I used the directions exactly, for my light carpet, and "EXACTLY" is the operative word here, and was able to remove stains that professional carpet cleaning outfits could not, and told me could never get out. While Oxy-Clean doesn't do much of anything for clothing stains and other things it promises, it is really miraculous on carpets. |
