I've used Ironite, lawn fertalizer and I water regularly but just can't get to turn really green.

I wash in hot water with Tide and Downy, then i dry them on high heat so the yare very dry. It seems like after I use them once or twice, they smell like mold. How can I get rid of this?

The towels are colored, not white, so I can't use bleach...

I saw a picture of this bed on the Better Homes + Gardens website and the source was "Living Room" magazine. I cannot find anything other than platform beds online- and this bed was a piece of wood flat on the floor and a thick mattress. Any ideas?

I know most people hide a key under a doormat or on top of the door. Where do you hide an extra key to your house?

Can you give me some ideas on how to begin or some pointers? I have ideas but would like to hear from someone who's done it.
Its a 5x3 ft solid wood kitchen table hand-me-down that I'd like to personalize a bit.

I know there are beneficial bugs like ladybugs, which is fine with me, but what about the biting, stinging stuff?

We have everything from mosquitos, to bees, to black widow spiders. Our yard is part woods, part lawn, part raised planter beds. The woods are full of spiders and other creepy crawly things. I would like to enjoy the shade and serenity of the woods, so do I have to accept the bugs as part of the deal, or is there a way to repel them from wooded areas? I'd prefer non-toxic means, if possible.

(Especially the black widows--yuck! I'm afraid my dog will get bitten.)

Do you talk to yourself? I know that this sounds like a silly question, but it's a really burning one for me!

The earwigs are all outdoors, I would like to make sure they do not move indoors. Also want to stop them from messing up my plants outdoors by chewing up the leaves and blooms.
