Baking soda kills germs and bacteria on the mattress. Vacuum first to clean out dust, etc....sprinkle the baking soda, vacuum again, option: spray mattress with a fine mist of water to which an essential oil has been added.

Spray your hair with lemon and sit in the sun for it to turn blonde
Wanda Hope Carter
I hadn't thought of this in years! I did that when I was a teen. But my hair naturally wants to go more reddish blonde. Me - no - likey- although I look at pics and think it looks okay. Back then I hated it.
Mark Bailey
On second thought, why would I wash my hair and then put lemon juice on my head. Especially if lemon juice removes hard stains on cooking ware. :o

Did you try the vinegar and soda on it? Make a paste and apply with a damp sponge. Let sit for a few minutes and it should come off.

Then it's methane but there's more in there than garbage. Here in Ohio and PA there are many gas and oil wells from the 1800's that were drilled and not capped. The fracking is stirring things up and these unmarked mines could explode. I just realized this when there was an article in the paper a...

does this work for the moral stain of "executive orders?"

For that we need to mix lemon juice, baking soda, the peels of three oranges, bleach, a cup of ground up apple seeds, two cups of white oleander and serve as a cocktail in a tall glass, no ice.
Safari Woman
Now how is this for timing... a friend on my private fb page was just asking if anyone knew how to get stains out of clothes! Guess which link I'll be sending her lol
