Stop Snoring Tips
The following tips will hopefully give you relief with your snoring problems. It's important to remember that different remedies will have varying success depending on the individual.
1)…Elevate your head by sleeping on a thicker pillow or multiple pillows will help reduce your snoring.
2)…Don't drink alcoholic beverages, take sleeping pills, tranquilizers, or antihistamines right before going to sleep, they will cause your muscles to relax and limit your air passage way.
3)…Avoid dairy products, which can cause mucus build-up right before you go to sleep.
4)…If you are overweight, losing some weight will reduce snoring by increasing the space in your air passage way.
5)…Sleeping on your side instead of your back will help to prevent snoring.
6)…A common remedy to prevent sleeping on your back is to sew a tennis ball to the back of your shirt; the discomfort of sleeping on the ball will prevent you from staying on your back.
7)…Try following a regular sleep routine.
8)…Try taking in a little bit of honey before sleeping.
9)…Don't eat a big meal right before bed, if your stomach is full it will push up on your diaphragm and limit breathing passage ways.
10)...Avoid eating "rich" foods such as cakes, cookies, chocolate and pizza.
11)…Sleep on a firmer pillow, a pillow that's too soft encourages your throat muscles to relax and narrows your air passageway.
12)…Inhale steam before sleeping or sleep in a room with a humidifier turned on, which will reduce congestion and moisturize the throat.
13)…Purchase some nasal strips and put them on before going to sleep. Nasal strips will open up your nostrils and allow more air to come in, thus reduce snoring.
14)…If you are a smoker, stop smoking, if that is not feasible then avoid smoking right before you go to bed. Smoking causes inflammation and swelling of the throat.
15)…Take anti-snoring pills or use anti-snoring nasal spray.
16)…Consult a medical profesional if your snoring continues to adversely affect your sleep.
Good Luck

A bag over her head??? o.k first of all stop that, very dangerous. Eviction??? tell your neighbor's to get real, we are all human, and snoring in your own place is not a reason to be evicted. Now for you, go to the DRUGSTORE!!! my husband snores, i hate it, but his sinus's are awful, she made need nasal lubricating cream, it is called "rhinarous" to help the mucus build-up in her passages, there are also strips, and she may even have a severe medical problem, that she should see a doctor for. As for your peace of mind, well honey i think you need to make the couch your friend for awhile, also open up a few windows if you can at night, so it is not so dry in the apartment. trust me i know what your going through, exhaust every option I mentioned and post again later. Good luck to both of you.

A dentist can make anti-snoring device. They work quite well, depending on how chronic the snoring is
Another option is to have a sleep aponea test done.

Roll her over on her side. Make sure she doesn't eat or drink alot before bed, as that can cause loud snoring too. If she's overweight, she should lose and if it's sleep apnea she should see and MD.

try having her sleep with her head and shoulders on a pillow instead of just her head, it will help her breathe better and not snore, also, she could avoid very heavy dinners.

She may have Sleep Apnea. Have her see her doctor ans schedule a sleep study. Sleep Apnea is a very serious disorder. She needs to check it out. I have it.
