Help, I rented a house and there is a very bad oder when you first walk in.I have tried sprays.I clean very good,left windows open,checked for leaky pipes and done everything I can think of to get rid of the smell.We even had the owner check for sewer gasses but to no satisfaction.This smell is driving me crazy because I feel that if anyone comes to visit it's the first thing that hits them.Does anyone know any sollutions for this problem.My next step is to buy an air purifier but I really don't know what type to buy or if it would even work. PLEASE any suggestions would be helpful as to how to get rid of the smell or of type of air purifier that is not too expensive that you know that works on oders.Thanks for any help

My pet turtles are growing and while I am saving up for a custom built tank they need more swimming space. They are currently in a 20 gallon tank, half filled (need space for basking site and lamp), and I'd like to find a container at least twice that for now, but I have very little money to spare. I have a small living room and this is the only room with space available.

I'm trying to think creatively for a soloution.

I have tried ebay (only 1 set on there and now completely overpriced!!!) and also on Google (company says they are out of stock). Are there any shops (preferably in Northern Ireland) that sell them ?

That stuff could wipe the smell of a dead mouse or a skunk under the house out in 20 minutes. I'm really disappointed that I can't find a place to buy it. :(......... You find a good product and then it disappears. :( ................

When I was a kid I was allergic to either straw or hay, not sure which. It was whatever my brother brought home in a scarecrow. What is the difference between the two?

Ello...
Can someone tell me if Skelmersdale is a bad place to live, and if anyone can tell me which are the less rougher places to live...!! Not saying that any where is rough but I am thinking of moving there, and the houses that look amazing inside and have 3/4 bedrooms are very cheap and was wondering why!?!? There must be a reason???
Thankyou

There have been a few odd and scary occurances lately that leave me to believe that my home is potentially being staked for a burglary. Do you have any other suggestions of things I can do to help secure my home and family other than the obvious locking of doors and guns?

I jusr recently bought one of those foggers that you use in your house to kill fleas/bugs etc. It says to put one in each room ( there are 4 in the pack) and vacate for 2 hours, then open all the windows to venalate.
Can I use only one in a room and shut the door and be able to stay in a different part of the house? The after a few hours, do it to another room, ans so on and so on.
I have cats - and no where to take them - so this would work better but I don't know if it is safe.

I keep my tailer clean I've lived here for three years and now started having a problems. My nighbor is a pig who has LOTS of roaches I've talked to him about it but he don't care. I tryed everything boric acid, gel, bait traps even bombing. I keep the house real clean too. The only thing that seems to help is bug bomb. Now they seem imune to it. When is the best time to bomb and how far apart should a space it. When do they stop being immune to it...ect...

They are turning off the water in my apt bldg today, for most of the day for maintenance...what do you do w/o water if you can't even flush the toilet...they said it would be off between 9 and 4. Great. I just took my shower (7:15 a.m.) and have some water in store in case I need some...question is, is if I put some water in the toilet when flushing it when the water's off, would that allow me to flush it again? Last time they did this I had 1 flush of my toilet left. Anyone with other ideas would be appreciated!

I am so upset with myself. I just cooked a big pot of dry beans and let the water boil off and now the whole bottom of the Dutch Oven is covered with burnt beans and I can't get them off. The pan is a teflon pan, so I can't scrape it off. Any ideas on how to get the pan clean.?? Thank you.
