    Also about removing stains, I try to rinse the spot with cold water from the other side. It helps push the stain out.

    Y’all. Buy the makers products. I used to think “a cloth is a cloth” but no. These are high quality and cut my scrubbing time down tremendously. And the mop literally shocked me. LOVE these products!

    Oh man, so spot on (well, spot off🤭) about mops/cloths being used in too many spaces. You got me onto using microfiber cloths for cleaning! Because I had collected and lost several thru the years for dusting, then happily found them in a move, I have them for every situation (color coded). It makes me so happy, esp since I'm reducing waste from wipes & paper towels. I grew up the household maid, and always loathed being forced to use sponges in the bathroom. The same sponges in the bathroom 😵‍💫🤢😩 I hated hated hated it! So, happily using washable reusable cloths (I do use wipes for the toilet). Thank you for turning on that lightbulb for me♥️ I love your leggings! You're always super cute🥰 May your year & family be blessed🙏✌️

Today, I’ll be trying your peroxide and baking soda idea from a previous video, on the grout in my shower.

    Another great video from Melissa! One thing about your (good) tip for removing stains from clothing: All the videos showed treating the item lying flat, so that the stained layer got treated but anything liquid also penetrated to the bottom layer - great if it's stained too, but if not, it's only causing the stain to spread to a clean(er) area, and haven't we all done that & regretted it? Sometimes it takes effort, but when treating fabric stains, I always bunch up or fold the item so I'm only working on where the stain is. Anyone have tips to make this easier? Maybe insert one of those thin flexible cutting boards between the layers to keep them apart? Love thus YT channel!

    If it's stained, Melissa has a video on removing it with a baking soda poultice. 'How to Remove Stains from Natural Stone Counters (Granite & Marble)'. Just search for it, because KZread will probably delete the comment if I put a link in. I would even try this with just water and baking soda first. Don't rub it though, just let it draw the stain out. She also has videos on DIY cleaners for stone counters.

    Sorry to report your leggings are not in my style pallet, but they look great on you! About stain removers, I ONLY use Puracy Stain Remover on my clothes. At the end of the day, I will spray a stain lightly, rub stain gently together, and throw into my laundry basket. I do laundry weekly so the Puracy Stain Remover is NEVER on the fabric more than 7 days and I have NEVER had any issues with color fading.

    Store products are easy to use and put millions of dollars into few individuals' hands example, S.C. Johnson & Son There many documents on this. These companies have a very good advertising compagin to get more people to buy more products that you might not need. For example products that kill germs. Sounds good but will only do the job for a few hours if that. A good all-round cleaner is soap and water. Yes do not use that on porous surfaces Homes are not sterile fields they should be clean and yes protect against cross-contamination

If you insist on hyping and selling microfiber, could you at least mitigate the harm you're doing by promoting a filter or something for the washer that stops some of the microplastics from poisoning us all? It seems incongruous that one as conscientious about toxins in their space as you would continue to promote the use of microfiber without trying and/or suggesting alternatives and mitigation strategies. Anyway, I came back to follow you because your information is very helpful. Your cleaning tips and formulas work great with my cleaning cloths. I resubscribed for the silver leggings.
