What is the best way to clean my balcony's rough cement floor? The drainage is bad, so I cannot use a pressure hose. The surface is rough, so it might wear away the brushes on a machine with brushes. However, I want to clean it with a machine instead of pure manual scrubbing. Are there any good machines for this?

The engraved letters look like it was stained by mud. The marker is not as shiny as it was when it was new. I would like it to look new. Is there anything to keep it looking new?

We seem to have an increasingly disgusting problem with cockroaches, the previous owners of the home never mentioned this until the papers were signed and such - After many attempts with sprays, "live" traps, baits, etc. we've had no luck. I've read many things that say to use Boric Acid, but I have two small children. I of course wouldn't let them play in it or anything, but is it safe to use around them in the general vicinity (It would be used in the kitchen, which is baby-gated so they can't get in unless with one of us parents)? It doesn't give off a harsh odor or anything?

System is pretty old. Noise hums for about a minute, stops, then restarts. Occurs about 10 or so times then stops. Only happens after heat shuts off. Cooper piping gets very very hot, ,perhaps unrelated. I know very little about this subject, so any help appreciated.

My newly constructed house has glazed tiles on the side walls of bath room and kitchen. I am finding it difficult to clean 'dry soap/oil marks' on these tiles with conventional methods using soap water and a scrub. Appreciate any useful tips & easy cleaning methods that you are aware of. Thanks in advance.

I have planters in an atrium. It's a pretty large room, I see little tiny spider webs on them, it seems like once they start they quickly get worse and then damage the plant. I think they are called spider mites. I don't know for sure. It makes thee plant look dusty or powdery.
