Odor Eliminator long lasting, enviro-savvy

Ewww, that smell! Life is full of stinky surprises, from diaper pails to pets with unresolved issues. Petrotech Odor Eliminator goes to the source of the odor, encapsulating the odor source, while it dramatically accelerates the process of natural biodegradation.

The product is also unscented, without any strong "what are you trying to hide?" perfumes. It can be safely used around people and pets. Get the sweet-smelling lowdown at www.sea-yu.com.

You still use paper?

You'll never have to do the pants-down waddle to the closet for more toilet paper again, now that the new Magic Clean bidet seat has arrived. Unlike the traditional bidet that requires additional bathroom real estate, the bidet seat simply takes the place of the current toilet seat.

The system requires a water hook-up, easily accessed from the toilet's fresh water supply, and a ground fault plug-in. Features include warm water wash and warm air dry, push button controls, even a heated seat. The cleaning/heat-dry procedure usually takes about four minutes, good for another flip through the Bathroom Reader. The Magic Clean bidet seat is now available at Dynasty Bath and Kitchen Centre, 369 Logan Avenue. 947-0986.

No more 'Oww! That's too hot!'

Just blow on it, your mother would say, as you peeled another layer off your tongue from super-heated soup, stew, or good ol' Kraft Dinner. That childhood trauma will soon be a thing of the past, with the Mac and Cool Quick Cooling Dish.

The dish holds a cup of water in an inner chamber. Simply freeze the dish, and transfer your super-heated sides. Once cooled, transfer to your child's plate, for more mmm's than owww's. Order online at www.macandcool.com. And if you're tired off grinding your two-year-old's Cheerios into the shag, outfit them with the Snack Trap non-spill cup. The soft plastic lid uses a flap system that allows snack retrieval, closing shut when the hand is removed. www.snacktrap.com.
