Toothpaste for bleach...works a treat. Found it out after finding white spots spattered on t shirt, after brushing teeth vigorously. And toothbrushes very handy for cleaning lots of tight spaces, and little things. If one is a klutz, it saves on fingers to push small nails thru a piece of cardboard to hold in place before whanging with a hammer.

Organic gardening tip: diatomaceous earth works well against crawlies. It must be kept dry, however, to be effective, so form protective well around plant to water in, spread d. earth everywhere else. It's used in swimming pool filters and can usually be found cheap at large box stores. Toothpicks poked into the ground right next to stemmed small plants foil cutworms.
