How can I get rid of roaches. I clean my kitchen every night and spray Raid every night but it seems like they are taking over. Any other suggestions? Please help I am having house guests in June.

Hi am doing wedding centerpieces and am adding ribbon and pearls to a glass bubble bowl with a hot glue gun, but when I see them the next day the are falling off. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to use gorilla glue?

The drain pipe is leaking after the trap where it is glued into a fitting that then goes through the wall so I can't cut it off and replace.

My grout is discoloured (a sort of reddish brown colour) but doesnt have any mould in it. I've used grout pens before but they always seem to end up painting half the tile as well. Any suggestions or products which can do a good job?

I have several large plants that sustained some winter damage (ie:browning , frost-burnt foliage) but appear to be healthy, with lots of green growth, but on long, woody stems. These plants are literally 2-3 feet in diameter and have overgrown their space. Should I cut all the foliage off to get back to a digable root ball? If I do, will I lose this year's blooms? Or can I take the individual long stems, cut them off and re-plant them as they are? Please Help! Thanks!

I plan to move in the next year, my house is 30 yrs old. Needs new carpet, new paint, kitchen is outdated ect. Would I benefit more by making these updates or sell as is and hope they like what I choose? Im unable to do minor repairs, so I would have to take out a loan and hire for repairs.

Can I upload a picture to the questions? That would make it easy. Anyway, this is the stupidest lightbulb I've ever seen. It is a flourescent top part with PLT13W WW written on top. That's the top flourescent part, I've discovered. The part that screws in is plastic, and perfectly flat on top, with two silver metal round prongs about 1/8 inch in circumfrance each. The flat circular bottom is about 1 inch in circumfrance. I bought this cheap bathroom fixture at home depot, now I can't find any replacement bulbs. I think I got jacked. Anyone know where I might find this light? I've searched the internet, went back to home depot, lowe's, nobody has it.

They are not damp, soggy or water logged. Just odorous from the mildew. Also, is it dangerous to work in this environment where these mildewed items are found? How could I cautiously work there cleaning up things?
