The box says you can cover with a towel, but my husband says you need to wash everything. Is this true? Is it dangerous to eat on the dishes afterwards? Also what about open boxed foods in he cabinets?

Kay.. I'm getting a new bed pretty soon. I have a 10x11 room, and a Queen sized bed. Yeah, It's a small room. So I was thinking of getting a twin bed.
I want to be able to store things under the new bed..
Like, a small chest, Boxes, and what not..
And I can't do that with a standard bed that's less thana foot off the ground. v_v

Are there any type of Raised Beds out there?
Like.. 3 feet or higher off the ground?
Links, brands, and prices are greatly appreciated.

Thanks! <3

The wall-mounted light switch in the bathroom won't turn off. It is a double switch plate. The first switch closest to the door being for the light, the second switch being for the fan, which does not have a problem. The light switch howevere, seems loose and can sort of be jiggled a bit. And, when trying to turn light off yesterday it seemed to sort of "stick and move" such that initially it felt stiff, then as the swich approached the bottom it got looser and sort of moved towards the right so that if you were then to look at it, the switch looks just a tiny bit crooked. And, worse, the light does not turn off. If I apply some pressure to the switch as I move it from top to bottom (from on to off) the stiff does not seem as loose and the light will flick off for a moment, but, when I let it go, the light will remain on.

1) Do I need an electrician to come in, or is this a DIY job?
2) Would this be an expensive fix?
3) Shld I shut off electric to that room until help arrives?
