Take advantage of the opportunity colder weather offers to detox the things in your home. When the temperature dips below freezing at night, lay out a clean tarp in your unheated garage and put items like plush toys, throw pillows and comforters on top. The freezing overnight temperatures will effectively kill microscopic dust mites and other allergens, giving your plush things a fresh new start the next day.

Who knew? Liquid laundry detergents actually have a shelf life! The whitening agents in liquid detergent degrade and break down over time, making them less effective at getting your clothes clean. The solution? Use powdered detergents, which are much more shelf-stable. If you prefer liquid soap because it doesn’t clog your machine, you can dilute powdered detergent in hot water and pour it right into your machine while loading it up with dirty laundry.

With the chill outside, central air conditioning may be the last thing on your mind, but this is actually a great time to consider replacing yours if your home needs it. In the hot summer months, not only are installers busy, but prices are also highest for new central air conditioning units. In the cooler months, prices are at their lowest, and wait times are virtually nonexistent. If your AC unit is on its last leg, consider replacing it with an Energy Star qualified model now, before it gets hot again.
