I mentioned the flowers of sulphur used in occult circles as a protective influence against undesirable influences; there is another preventive used there and that is a couple of tablespoonfuls of vinegar mixed into the bathwater. Incidentally, such a mixture in about the same proportions may be used to clean wooden floors or their linoleum coverings. On the subject of floor coverings, note that woolen carpets are best cleaned by hand with a hard brush and not by vacuum cleaners, which are harmful to them, or by the non-electric roller type of carpet cleaning apparatus.
