Best Way to Clean Pillows.

Best Way to Clean Pillows.

Problem: Hey Tia, what’s the best way to clean pillows?

Tip from Tia:

Some people will put pillows in the washer, and that’s fine. But, you must remember that the inside filling may not be dry, just by running it through the dryer once. I would say it’s best to run it through at least twice to insure no bacteria growth on damp filling.

The best way to clean your pillows that I recommend is steam cleaning them. You can even use the setting on your iron to steam them. Once you’ve steamed the pillows, place in the dryer to make sure all the filling has dried.

ORGANIC HEALTH & HOME, TIPS ON TRIGGERS

Clean your Blood. Tips on Triggers:

Tips on Triggers: Clean your Blood.

I always found it ironic that vampires don’t like garlic. Eating garlic cleans your blood. The cleaner your blood, the better it is for your immune health.

So, the best start at triggering a healthy immune system is eating garlic. Eating raw garlic can be too harsh for many, but you will still get benefits by cooking with fresh garlic. Another way to get your daily source of garlic without the smell is, garlic pills.

It may not be cold season yet, but it’s best to build the immune system up now, without all the cold germs floating around.

Tomatoes Before Sun? Tip in Action:

Tip in Action: Tomatoes Before Sun?

Skin care is so important when entering the sun. Protecting the skin on the outside is important, but there are ways to protect your skin from the inside out.

Adults hitting that bloody Mary breakfast buffet when at the beach, before going sea side, may not be a bad idea.

Pump the kids up with tomato juice, before jumping in the pool could be a way to go, as well.

Tomatoes can help prevent the skin from absorbing the dangerous parts of UV rays.

ORGANIC HEALTH & HOME, STUPID TIP OF THE DAY; WHAT NOT TO DO

Tiny Holes in the House Don’t Matter. Stupid Tip of the Day:

Stupid Tip of the Day: Tiny Holes in the House Don’t Matter.

Whether you own or rent your home,whether it’s a house or apartment; structural inspections several times of year, are important. I recommend seasonal inspections are the best time to inspect, because of the weather changes.

Finding small holes in exterior walls and interior walls along with dry wall, can allow many pest to pass through very easily, large or small.

With exterior walls stuffing with steel wool and/or a bag of broken glass and insulation will keep pests like mice, snakes and other larger pests out of your home.

For interior holes use steel wool and patch with compound. Don’t forget to fill in holes around wires and plumbing; spots that are usually overlooked when pests are a problem.

Doing a structural inspection can help in preventing large problems, because you may be able to discover a problem a lot sooner.

Ouch, When You Get Burnt. Quickie:

Quickie: Ouch, When You Get Burnt.

When cooking or working with something hot, there is always a danger of getting burnt. When celebrating holidays there are more causes for burns, like roasting marshmallows, fireworks, sparklers, grills and fire pits. REMEMBER, If it is a severe burn seek medical attention immediately.

If you happen to get a slight burn, put your skin under luke-warm water while letting the temperature increase to cold, it will start to neutralize the burn.

Once you remove the burn from cold water, pour soy sauce onto the burn. It will help draw out the burn and sting. Apply antibiotic ointment to the burn. Repeat ointment treatment till skin is healed.
