Household

Hello all,
I just relocated here in August with my hubby and son. So far I have enjoyed living here. I found a flyer at my son's school advertising this website so I thought I would give it a try since I do not know a soul here. =)

Ok I don't know what's going on this year but we have a lot of spiders around the outside of our home and they're not the cute little daddy long leg kind! They're the ugly ones! I know that one was a wolf spider but I've seen atleast 5 different kinds. They are creating various webs along the outside of our house and on the basketball hoop. We've had two of the ugly jumping ones about the size of a nickel in our house and I don't want the larger 50cent piece ugly ones in my house!!!! Anyway does anyone have any advice?? I really can't afford a professional to come take a look. Any all natural or cheap hardware stuff you know that works?? Thanks!!

I am embarrased to say this but I am developing a terrible mold problem in my shower in my bathroom. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it? This stuff is disgusting!

My daughter is feeding herself table foods and with only being 8 1/2 months old she is very messy. It doesnt matter how many bibs I take to daycare or how many times I remind them they always forget to put a bib on her atleast every other day at one the meals. So we have had alot of stained shirts with anything and everything you can think of. What is the best at getting out stains? I have tried Oxy Clean and shout and neither one is working.

I recently moved into a house with hardwood floors. They're beautiful. I am constantly cleaning them. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any product that will keep them shining. I'm afraid all the mopping will wear on them.

I have 2 male dogs living in my house and a female. Its just temperary until my parents move out and get there own place again. But the female went in heat and te males are marking all over the house. I have hard wood floors and I can not get the smell out... its in my furniture too. I have tried everything I can think of... Febreeze doesn't work having the cleaned doesn't work.. Any one got any ideas?

I know with the way the economy has been things going up in price and people loosing jobs or not making enough. I found this website called freecycle.org, they have a southbendmishawaka chapter and people post what they're looking for or what they want to get rid of for free. Hope this is a help to others

so i went to vacuum the floor this morning and my vacuum starting smoking and smelling really bad! yuck! i knew it was getting to the point of it needing to be replaced but i dont want to spend the money on something i already had. soooo, i guess im in the market now. i have and one year old and one on the way, i dont want to spend a fortune but i want something that will work well, i would love a dyson but a bit pricey. anyone have suggestions?

Hi,
My cats and dog have fleas, so I gave them frontline. Well a week later I noticed the fleas were worse.
Does anyone know of something safe to use around babies that will deflea a home? I don't have a lot of money to get stuff from the vet at $15-18 a pop. What do you use that works and how much does it cost? Thanks

Does anyone use the NIPSCO choice option? We are trying to plan for the winter and I am trying to see if it would really save us money.
