My grandparents had the door to my room closed for a whole year before we moved in. Now its really stuffy and it smells like mold! plus it doesnt help all 3 of our dogs peed in here! and had the need to take a dump!

is there anyway to make the smell go away?????

also i saw a steam cleaner that says it can get rid of mold in carpets......can you steam clean shag carpet? Its furry, but when you walk on it, ya can just feel that it either needs to be cleaned really bad or burned!

the tree onion grows from a the main bulb on top of a fairly thik stem, where several small onions grow. The plant is usualy about 18inches or close to half a meter high the small onions are difficult to handle perhaps these are just the seeds for a new crop.

Calling all arachnologists --?
I'll probably post this in lawn and garden, too. It's not a very technical question. I just need help identifying something.

My Mother-In-Law's house has been plagued by large spiders for the last three years. They look similar to an average, brown house spider, but they're usually around the size of a silver dollar.

They don't build nests. They like to hide underneath made bed sheets, in piles of clothes or in other crevices. They can jump up to three feet, and they're very aggressive.

They're brown, with yellow stripes running down their backs, and visible fangs. How can these things be driven out? Would they likely be breeding in an outdoor shed or a woodpile? We've only ever seen them inside, and never around the areas just mentioned.

Does anybody know of any uses for the plaster. There is going to be a lot of it after we remodel, if there is anything I could use it for instead of throwing it all away. Please let me know.
