Keep It Fresh
Baking soda is an essential tool to have around the house. It's versatile enough for so many cleaning jobs, specifically, it's quite handy for cleaning larger furniture pieces. Just sprinkle some baking soda all over the couch and vacuum it up to restore your couch back to its former glory.
No More Creaking in the Night
Talcum powder is another handy substance to keep around the house. It's useful for creaky floorboards and stairs. Just shake some onto the area that is making the most noise, rub it in, and you won't hear a peep.
