Hello Everyone,

If your carpet is starting to take on unpleasant odors due
to pets or spills, use this cheap and natural method to make
it smell as good as new. Lightly sprinkle baking soda over
the carpet and let sit 20 minutes. Vacuum, and any odors will
be done. The baking soda sinks into the fibers so it helps
remove deep dirt and any odors.

Another unique use for Q-Tip cotton swabs is to dip the
