A: Smoke smell  Hot Depot makes a heavy duty smoke eliminator product by Zep. It comes in an aerosol can. It is found in the cleaning section with glass cleaner, mold and mildew cleaner, etc. I advise using it with a respirator and allowing some outside ventilation in.

Cat & Lizards!  My cat keeps bringing in dead lizards & leaving them on the floor. Is there anything I can do to keep her from doing that? She has a cat door, so she comes & goes as she pleases. I don't want to force her to become a house cat, but I don't want to keep picking up the nasty little dead lizards either.
