Cleaning & Laundry - November 2006

I live in North Carolina and im experiencing a silverfish problem in my apartment.
Im also noticing some type of skinny brown bug mainly in the bathroom and corners of the apartment. Its not a roach, its skinny and crawls oddly. Any ideas what it might be?

OK, I was babysitting at my friend's house and we had salad with our dinner....with Catalina dressing, of course. Well unbeknownst to me, the kids spilled quite a bit of it on the floor (of course), but since I didn't know about it, the stain sat overnight. This is on an offwhite Berber carpet. What would be the best thing I can use to get the stain out? Help please! Thx. :)

I stupidly left some dirty dishes in my dishwasher for over a week before running the cycle. When I remembered the dirty dishes, I ran the dishwasher on the hottest setting thinking it would remove the food and little moldy things starting to grown in there. My dishes are mostly clean with a little mildew on them that I can remove by washing them in the sink. How do I now sanitize my whole dishwasher and the racks. If I can even sanitize the dishwasher and dishes together and not have to rewash all the dishes, that would be even better. I'm willing to wait another day or two for good answers in order to avoid having to go through all the dishes and rewash them, but the faster your answers come, the better off I am. Thanks a lot.

I've been using a glo white sachet in the wash but very disappointed. Any other products that won't damage the clothes and that are safe for low temp washing in a machine. it's all gone a bit grey or patchy on my clothes.

I am sure many of you have heard that motto. I live in utter chaos. I can never find anything. And if I do, I set it down and 5 minutes late, i can't find it, again. I grew up in a house with my mother whose middle name was clutter. If there is anyone who has any tips for this unorganized housewife, I would really appreciate them. I just can't seem to get any organizational skills in order. HELP me please!!!!!
