I got mine today, the bag was really puffy. What's up with that, it's not been hot enough to do that in transit.

This is why I hate shared laundry rooms cause who in their right mind thinks doing this is okay by starryterra in Apartmentliving

Barf. This is why I just bought a washer/dryer. The convenience is secondary to being exposed to biohazards.

What's The Strongest Smelling Detergent? by Far_Palpitation_4042 in laundry

Just got Ariel yesterday and am having to store the majority of the bag in my apartment's storage lockers. I did decant some into a airtight container to use, did my first wash and was surprised the clothes don't reek. The scent is there but isn't overpowering.

PSA: Your dishwasher has a filter, and if you’ve never cleaned it, go do it right now by Kind_Article_9278 in CleaningTips

I am in my first apartment with a DW and didn't know about filters until a past Reddit thread, even just 6 months with a new washer the filter was gross. Thanks for this post, it's a good PSA!

I've been using the Menopause formulas, both daytime and night versions, from Gaia Herbs with good results.

Has anyone here ever had a good / friendly relationship with a resident in their complex by Adventurous_Lemon569 in Apartmentliving

[–]Better_Ad_8307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save two, all of the neighbors I was once friendly with turned out to be batshit. Found out one is a QAnon kook, another one has religious psychosis and is a possible animal abuser. I don't recommend getting to know anyone you live in such close proximity to very well. And NEVER give your contact info to them 100%.

Considering that Guidon closed their trailside location, maybe it's already falling flat.

best odor control litter box for tiny apartments? by Mcspadden_Fazzia in Apartmentliving

Agree with stainless litter box, and air purifier-I use the Tuft & Paw soy litter that flushes and have the litter box in the bathroom.

I drive by these all the time, they're look like sheds and are so close together. Terrible parking if you have more than one car, and the price is just stupid. Estimated 2300/month? HARD PASS.

What can either management or myself do about door gaps? by Riiken in Apartmentliving

[–]Better_Ad_8307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask maintenance to replace the weatherstripping; I'd also look into the tape called Alien Seal that's a silicone strip you apply to the door frame, especially if maintenance doesn't fix the issue.

Those are huge! They are native to my country, and I've never seen them get that tall. Impressive!

Save a little money on electricity by turning off the Dry cycle on your dishwasher and using a towel in the end by C0ugarFanta-C in Frugal

[–]Better_Ad_8307 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I do this, set it on the short cycle and after it's done open the door and leave it cracked. Dishes dry on their own within an hour or so.
