When my roommates cook, the smell of the food seems to linger in our kitchen for DAYS! It kind of irritates me because the smells are so pungant and strong. I've tried febreze, lysol (sp?), burning candels, and leaving all the windows open. Nothing seems to get rid of the smells. Can you maybe help me? Thanks.

My dog in the past has urinated in one of our rooms in our house. The carpet is thick and plush. I have tried sprays, powders and baking soda but they only rid the odor for a short time. Is there anything I can try short of calling a professional carpet cleaner that will permently rid of the odor?

My house is always a mess, no matter how much I seem to clean it. I live alone, in a 2 bed one bath apartment with no pets. What is your best advice on how to keep a place clean? (Or at least not a complete 100% disaster 24/7)

We have 300 orange trees that have just finished fruiting, they are now starting to flower. Do we prune them now? and if so, how much do they need to be cut back?

Since i didnt use coasters on my desk, some spots have absorbed the water and swelled up, and the paint chipped off in those areas.I was wondering if sanding down the desk, then painting it would fix it?

I was in a wedding this weekend and I kind of want to keep my bouquet (I'm sort of a pack-rat, keepsake kinda person). But I just don't know what to do with them? Any unique ideas? Otherwise, if I just decide to dry them out, do I have to spray them with something or anything like that?
