Happy Halloween...yeah, right. I left for work this morning to see that our neighborhood punks spray painted a side window near the front door of our condo. The graffiti is about one foot by six inches.

I've done a little internet research and am getting a million different answers. So...how do you remove spray paint from window glass?

Tried ebay and all sorts of places with no joy. Oh, and it's for a gift, not for me. Honest!

I have a bathroom and kitchen off the hallway but can't smell anything there. I think it is a plumbing prob. Smells like strong laundry. I changed the trap behind my washing machine but hallway still smells. Any ideas?

I have lived in a 1 bedroom flat for the past year and other than some condensation and small (manageable) amounts of black mould around the windows everything has been fine. In the past 8 weeks thick green mould has been appearing in various places in the bedroom - everywhere else in the flat is fine. The mould first appeared on the blinds on the window and a fabric suitcase kept on top of the wardrobe. We threw all of these things away and have scrubbed the area down with bleach and are now using a dehumidifier and keeping the windows open all the time. However last night I found more mould growing on clothes and shoes inside one of the wardrobes - all of which I have now thrown away.

The only causes I can think of are things we have introduced to the room recently, the wardrobes were purchased in July but were brand new, and I brought an Ivy plant into the bedroom at the end of August.

Is there anything else i can do or do i need to get the professionals in?

I am looking for an oven cleaner made from all natural products.
Not just elbow grease..
I have found that I cannot use ammonia based products anymore due to a respiratory complaint.
Any tips you can give me would be most helpful.

The drill bit is bent, and it wobbles. How do I drill a neat hole in the wall with this 1.5" drill bit, using an electric drilling machine?
No other bit is available, and the job has to be done quickly!

The reason I am askin is I have found 3 bugs in my livingroom lately, I looked all over the internet and cannot find any bug that resembles it. the closest is a cockroach but on the same hand it doesnt look like a roach but just has some resemblances such as two little nodes on the back end.
