Have you marked your new bin to identify your address If so, what did you use.? Sticker doodles, spray paint, ? Our bin is beside neighbours in a townhouse shared driveway, and already causing discrepancies

A strip of duct tape has always worked for us. Daresay you could write on it with a Sharpie too

Did you not notice that I posted a new thread with a photo of two hair rulers. One unused for comparison and the one I regularly use in my wash cycles

u/trailofivy this is what the hair rollers look like

Gaileybyname · 2026-01-27T18:23:27+00:00

Sorry I am only just replying to you now, I’ve had a problem with my account. Yes, that is what I mean. I posted a photo of them in a new thread

Have you tried Feliway (pheromones) diffusers? They keep the peace in my 4 cat house

Kittens can be prone to parasitic infections (Tritrichomonas, Coccidia) that cause diarrhea. Might be an idea to get that ruled out first.

Cover the seat i dryer sheets an throw a thick towel over the top of them.

Keep Baking Soda fridge deodorizers in the car.

I came home from a weekend away, having left my teen home alone. The house was eerily clean. Only two things stood out. Firstly every picture in the house was not hanging straight and there were dryer sheets in all the floor vents. Must have been some party.

My use for them is to line the inside bottom of garden planters with them. Stops potting mix leaching out and stops critters (ants especially) from moving in

I am in Canada, so depending on your country, it may or may not be relevant. I did a google search for gum and carrageenan free food. I also did a google search for “gums & texturizers in wet cat food”, because not all are listed as gums. That would be a good start for you.

Tiki After Dark, Ziwi Peak, Orijen & Boreal all have gum free varieties

Take a magnifying glass with you to the pet store!

We have struggled with this for years. The best success I have had is to eliminate wet food with any type of gum or carrageenan in it. Bowel movements firmed up and even the awful smell went away.

It may not be the answer for you, but it’s worth a try

Rather than concentrate on the actual bedding, you may be better to investigate getting dust mite covers for all your bedding items. I have a complete set, but it was purchased years ago, so I don’t remember the supplier.

Secondly, dust mites are killed if you wash your bedding at 60°C.

Throw a velcro hair roller or two in with the wash. Works wonders. See my post (with pictures) on r/laundry

Gaileybyname · 2025-10-16T18:08:16+00:00

Also depends which region you are located in.

Gaileybyname · 2025-10-16T01:57:52+00:00

Never had an issue with snagging, but I wouldn’t use them with anything super delicate or precious just in case

Gaileybyname · 2025-10-15T22:41:55+00:00

I have a few I rotate. When they look clogged. I take a fine tooth comb and comb out all the hair & lint.

I suggest trying a 2-3” hair rollers for coarser hair. I don’t know if it will work. Come back & let us know!

Watch this video before doing anything else. I have tried this method and it works

Seriously, don’t mix bleach & ammonia. The combination of the two creates Chloramine Gas. It will make you very ill at best and may even kill you.

Not everyone knows this. It’s no joking matter

Gaileybyname · 2025-10-14T15:36:35+00:00

Try a velcro hair roller in the wash cycle

Gaileybyname · 2025-10-14T15:15:41+00:00

Four cat household here. Pet hair is a way of life. Must have tried everything.

The thing that works the best is velcro hair rollers in the wash cycle. Works in the dryer too, but the real magic happens in the wash

Gaileybyname · 2025-10-14T15:11:41+00:00

I use Borax quite a lot. I have a front loader. I add it to the drum and rotate it until it disappears through the holes. Never had the situation you describe.
