    the best and safest ant spray is ms meyer's room spray in basil scent. it's not made for killing ants, but it kills them on contact, keeps them away for weeks, smells nice and is safe for pets and children. love your videos! you're the best!

      One day at the checkout, a cashier who seemed maybe 18 years old, held up my bunch of basil, made a "stinky" face and asked, "Eeew, what's this?" I said, "It's fresh basil. I love the smell of fresh basil. If I could put it in a bottle and wear it like perfume, I would!" Well, now I guess I can spray myself with Miss Meyer's basil-scented room spray AND keep ants away!

      Best and safest way to get rid of ants is cinnamon, cinnamon sticks and basil leaves. Place cinnamon on outside door or any entryways as barrier. Also cinnamon sticks and oregano leaves in kitchen. If you have a lot of ants use cinnamon along kitchen counter back wall. Every summer I do this and no longer get ants

    As someone who's partner is a plumber, please DO NOT, flush those wipes down the toilet. They do not break up at all. These wipes are similar to baby wipes, but with less plastic holding it together. Just because it says flushable doesn't mean it is. About 7 times out of 10, each call ends up with clogged pipes from those wipes. Sewer systems across the country have also seen an uptick in fatburgs caused by the build up of these wipes. My partner always says you can use them, but do not flush them, just simply throw them away.

    @SATAM_BA ปีที่แล้ว +18

    "Flushable wipes" are a big problem for sewers because they combine with other nonsoluable waste like fat, oil, and grease to create big chunks of rock like obstructions called "fatbergs". They cause sewers to clog and overflow. They'll clog your septic too. Best way to use flushable wipes is to throw them in a trash can with a lid on it. You can use scented bags or put car air freshener cans in the bottom of the trash can, whatever you can do to keep the stink under control. Probably better to install a bidet at that point.

      Exactly! Plus there's some essential oils safe for dogs that are toxic for cats. And peppermint isn't safe for either.

      @@ApohMay Yup, most are toxic for cats. Their bodies just can't process them so they can accumulate in their livers and reach toxic levels pretty quickly.

    Hi everyone, I live in beautiful Newfoundland, Canada. We use those veggie bags when we cook “Jiggs dinner” ( all veggies in the pot with some salt beef…yum). We put carrots in a bag, turnip in another, potatoes in another etc. it’s awesome when it’s time to take veggies out of the pot. Do anyone else use them for this purpose. I also use them to put bones in to boil to make broth, makes it so much easier. Love your channel, my husband even enjoys it. Keep up the awesome content, your the best😀😀

    • @tracykeats95

    I like the idea of the produce mesh bags. I should get some. I stopped using the plastic bags a while ago. As you pointed out, totally wasteful. The only thing I put in a plastic bag is a bundle of Cilantro cuz it's usually wet and will make a mess. But everything else I just place loose in my cart.

    Net veggie bags can be used in the washer. Not big enough for sweaters but good for summer shirts. One per bag but no worries snags

    For the mesh bags they would work as laundry bags too. I keep my kids socks in one for each. Then all of their socks are stored in a bag & they can always find them. Also great to wash lingerie.
    For the colored lighted letters. If you want them another color just cover each light with painters tape, use extra fine grit sand paper & lightly scuff up the surface & spray paint them whatever color you want.
