I have tons of bags with miscellaneous belongings in them. & they're those cheap dollar plaid plastic bags with the zipper. Most of the bags have holes in them or broken zippers, & the stuff is basically falling out, which basically makes the closet look kinda junky. So do you think I should take everything out the bags, group them together, & organize them neatly & throw the bags away or just leave everything in the bags?

... bed bugs? I recently discovered that I have them. I was told its because of the humidity in my house (I turn off the air when I head out to work). But I noticed I would wake up with these little red bites on my skin. And then I saw one. I immediately ripped off all the sheets and sprayed my mattress with Lysol Disinfectant. But that didn't work. What do I need to do? Should I buy bug spray? And if so, what kind? Should I call an exterminator? Help Please!

I was able to remove the outer cover of the case and wash it in the machine. The inner part is velvet and styrofoam.

I stay at home with my dad & my brother. My house is quite big - it has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and the kitchen and living room alone, make up the size of some small flats.

I used to have my own flat with a friend, and it was sooo easy to keep clean and tidy. My flatmate was considerate in that she cleaned up after herself, and vice versa, and we took it in turns to do the housework.

Since moving back home, I am always left with the burden of cleaning the house. It is really hard work, due to the size, and also the added detail that being men, neither my dad or my brother show any consideration to what I do around the house.

We have dogs, and it's like fighting a losing battle. I am constantly sweeping up hair. It makes me so fed up that I spend so long doing the housework, and I'll go out for a few hours, and come home to crumbs all over the worktop & empty crisp packets lying around the living room. The mess doesn't seem to bother them, but it is doing my head in!!!

My friend came in all frustrated yesterday. She said that she had a bad time doing laundry and in her words "it was full of losers and people that were poor and stinky". OK so she was getting her washer fixed, but is it mostly people who don't have it together enough to afford a washer that are there? Have you noticed this

I am a 27 yr old white female and I have had a problem with acne since I was about 21 years old (no problems in my teens, though). Nothing over the counter seems to work, and I have found the only thing that will clear it up is oral antibiotics, and those only work until I stop taking them. My doctor recommended that I wash my towels, sheets, and pillowcases with an antibacterial laundry detergent, wash my whole body with hibiclens soap daily, and use a new towel every time I shower (to cut down on the bacteria in my home). I can't seem to find an antibacterial laundry detergent. I know bleach would work, but my towels are navy blue and my bedding is a dark tan color. I don't want to discolor anything... any suggestions for antibacterial laundry detergent?

What is a good home mixture to remove blackmold? I believe a mixture of bleach and soap and water works, but I'm not sure.
