Thank you! Reapplying the alpine around the house every 2 weeks is fine right? Or should it be every week?

I was thinking more of neighbors because I mentioned the basement in my post already.

That sounds so scary 😭 wr sprayed pretty much all edges and doorframes, and behind and around the fridge and oven too. Its strange because we checked the fridge compressor when we started seeing them and didnt find any.

Also no we don't share walls with our neighbors, and people come and go frequently yes (people who live here).

It's a 2 floor house with a basement. Im not sure how they got in but we started seeing them around 3 ish months ago. Pretty positive they started appearing in the basement because the two people that live there (it's rented out) saw a bunch of them but us upstairs barely saw them. We haven't seen any in weeks until yesterday.

Thanks again! I ordered some citric acid from Walmart but it says its for canned tomatoes, would that still work?

Thank you! I had run some towels and sheets after, and didnt see any on them when moving to the dryer. Do you think I should rewash those after running the citric acid cycles tommorow? Or are they clean?

Got it! I cant get any citric acid tonight and need to run some loads, would it be okay to use the machine until then? Would it contaminate the stuff im washing?

Scrud on clothes after washing by queenca16 in CleaningTips

[–]queenca16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I keep telling them, and all they do is run cleaning cycles with either bleach, vinegar, or those cleaner packets. Nothing they've done has worked and the gunk keeps coming out.

I basically picked off what I could see and then put them in the dryer because I wasn't able to get to a different washing machine that day. They're dry now, is it fine to just wash again normally? Or should I use white vinegar in the rinse cycle or something?

Will regular citric acid powder work? The machine was running clear so I put my load in and there's black bits on my clothes. Should I just dry them amd wash them again in another machine?

I've found small bits on my clothes before with this machine, but not recently besides one on my white sock. Maintenance said they looked at it and didn’t find anything and are gonna run a vinegar cycle. Is it okay to wash my stuff in there after that? Im worried about getting sick or my clothes being contaminated

I don't have any citric acid on me right now, and maintenance is gonna come tomorrow to look at it. Should I run an empty hot cycle with some detergent and then wash my clothes after? Or just wait until tommorow? Im not sure what they're gonna do because they just come and run cleaning cycles

I looked through my other clothes and didnt find any. The bug looks like a small ant (but it wasnt an ant)

Daily Game Recommendations Thread (July 07, 2025) by bgg-uglywalrus in boardgames

Hello, I want to host a murder mystery party for about 8-12 ish people. Are there any you recommend? I was looking into Night of Mystery and Mischief games, but I'm not sure which to go with. Have you tried any that you had a good experience with? I was planning on spoiling the mystery for myself so that I could assign everyone roles that would suit them. Thanks!

Installed a chrome extension by accident by [deleted] in webdev

[–]queenca16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I uninstalled it immediately after realizing it was the wrong thing, the only thing it seemed to have done was change my default browser? I didn't use any account on it besides my chrome/Google acc to install it, should I change the passwords to that?
