As we enter spring time, and we are starting to clean up our lawns, we find that maybe its time to put down some fertilizer. But you do not have the money, in the budget for this years lawn care. Well maybe I can help out, with a recipe that I found last year, that is a tonic for your lawn. This recipe is from a golf course groundskeepers. All you need are five common household ingredients and a hose-end sprayer. This works wonders, and is allot cheaper and more effective than store bought products.

You will need:

• One 12oz can of regular beer (no light or low cal beer)
• One 12oz can of pop ( any kind no diet pop)
• 1/2 cup of liquid dish washing soap ( don't use anti-bacterial dish washing soap)
• 1/2 cup of household ammonia
• 1/2 cup of mouthwash ( any brand)
• Put mixture into 1 gal plastic milk jug, mix well ( please mark poison for child safety)
• Pour into a hose-end sprayer
• In high heat, apply every three weeks

That's it! Very simple easy to mix, cheap and very very effective. I know what your asking yourself right now. How does this work? And how is this going to make my lawn green?

Well, the liquid soap is a wetting agent, helping the formula penetrate the roots, also it will kill off kills off important microbes in the lawn and soil that help "digest thatch" 

The ammonia promotes growth and turns your lawn green.

The mouthwash does something you would never suspect mouthwash would do. It kills off bugs and grubs!  

So there you have it the most inexpensive way, of taking care of you lawn and you do not need a bailout from the federal government, to buy these household products.

Now that we have made all the new years resolutions and going to try to keep all of them, their is one we should all make about our cleaning supplies. All cleaning supplies have dates on them, which are dated for one reason and that reason is they lose their chemical balance in them. Plus some chemical cleaning products can make the can or bottle expane and leak if not careful. So while you are looking to work out or stop smoking this new year, stop and take a moment and look under your sinks and disgrad the old products.

As a person that has had pets in my house, I know it can be frustrating to come home after a long day from work and find, some present that our pet has left us on the living room carpet. So we either clean it up with, some old rags and alittle warm water, but the thing we all don't understand is that the feces, bacteria can go deep down into the fabric.

But the one thing you don't want to do, is clean the carpet with a bleach type of product or even a cover up product. The best way to get all of the bacteria is to invest in a enzyme action product, which is very safe around children and pets, because this product is all organic and helps to prevent dogs or cats from re-marking their territory. But don't be fooled by covered up products, that clam to be a enzyme eating product. Like the old saying "Investigate before you invest". So if you are looking for a good quailty product that does all this and is 100% guaranted, flip over to my web site at www.odorsandstains.webs.com and read more about this kind of product.
