How to clean the ashes from a fire ?

I don't have a fireplace set and it seems to me easier to vacuum up the mess. But is this safe to do?
I have found some recommendations and want to share them:

1. First make sure the fire is out.
2. Scoop out as much as you can with a dust pan if you don't want to ruin your vacuum cleaner.
3. Vacuum the rest ashes. After vacuuming the smell and odor will stay for months in your vacuum cleaner. So you need some really good micro filtration filter bags.

Well, from the first sight it looks really easier to vacuum up the ashes fro fireplace. But if you have vacuum over $ 700, I wouldn't recommend this method for you.

Mad about cleaning grease, smells, black mould, slime and gunge inside washing machine.

Remove grease, black mould, slime and gunge inside washing machine.
We use 40° washes almost always because of biological detergents and it doesn't work well at lower temperatures because bugs and their eggs are able to survive in my washing machine after washing at lower temperatures. What would you expect If you were washing greasy plates in a plastic washing up bowl with the water at 40°. You would expect the plates to come out clean but when emptying the bowl there are greasy. To clean greasy coating you need higher temperatures.
How to clean grease, slime and gunge inside your washing machine? Washing machine manufacturers and washing machine service mans recommend cleaning wash once a month. Washing machine manufactures have decided to advice cleaning instructions in their instruction books. This is particularly important if you, like me, mostly use low temperature washes and use washing machine detergent without bleach. A service wash involves putting the washing machine on at 95° with only the detergent inside and no laundry. I particularly recommend to use a washing machine detergent that does contain bleach for service wash (color-friendly washing detergent doesn't contains bleach). If you normally use a washing machine detergent that doesn't contain bleach components, buy some detergent that does, and use it for your maintenance washes. This will help kill off bacteria and prevent grease, slime and gunge inside washing machine. One more idea is to use crystals of soda which are well-known like dissolving grease. Put the washing machine on with no clothes in on a hot wash 95°-70°.
Washing machine smells. Grease, slime and gunge can cause smells. Smells in washing machines can also be caused by substances received in chemical process of washing or plumbing without a U-bend water trap. To get rid of unpleasant smell of rotten rubber smell that remain even after one or two service washes, pour a 250 ml of distilled vinegar into the soap dispenser drawer while it is filling up on a hot wash. Don't put any washing in, just let to your washing machine go through the full cycle. Repeat if necessary.
Why occurrence black mould in washing machines? Black mould grows on door seal and in soap dispenser of washing machines. Black mould spread it's spores all around your washing machine which cause dangerous allergies. Black mould spreads out in warm moist places. Washing at low temperature, using washing machine detergent without bleach helps to black mould successfully spread out. To get rid of black mould put the washing machine on a monthly boil wash using detergent with bleach.

Tips for removing stains from carpets

Keeping my light color carpets ideally clean is a real challenge. While vacuuming often and removing shoes before entering to a carpeted room I'll save my carpets from usual wear and tear. But my family like to eat when they watching TV and childrens like to play their games and to eat sandwichs with chocolate or cookies at the same time in carpeted rooms. And they, of course, spoil drinks and leave food on my carpets. Spills mean stains and that can mean a ruined carpet. Before throwing out the carpet read my tips about how to remove stains from carpet.
The most important rule for cleaning any stain is to clean immediately. If not, you risk to loose your carpet forever. If you spill something on your carpet, take a dry cloth which absorbs liquid ( like bath towel) and put on the stain for blotting liquids. If you spoil something with solid matter clean it up first. Then blot at the stain until you've lifted as much of the stain as possible.(If a lot of liquid has been spilled, cover the area with a thick dry cloth and weigh down with books. Leave overnight and remove the stain as normal). Now you can dampen a cloth or sponge with cold water and blot very gently. Don't scrub the stain, this will only weaken the carpet fibers and cause the stain to spread. If there's still soiled after blotting with water, sprinkle a mild dish washing liquid on the stain and clean. Blot gently and leave it for about an hour or so. Blot again with a cool damp cloth until the stain is removed. Products that clean clothing will also clean the carpet. Try to remove the stain with a laundry stains remover. Leave it to soak overnight and blot with a damp sponge or cloth until the stain is removed. If the solution to your stain problem can't be found in your kitchen cabinets, you may need to buy an over-the-counter stain solution. These are pretty easy to use. In most cases, you spray it on and vacuum with vacuum cleaner. Or at last contact with professional stains removers or with carpet's manufacturers. They'll either share some stain removal tips or recommend a service call.
