No, really I am! My apartment complex, me, the neighbors, everyone living here always has a problem with fruit flies when the weather is warm...it's horrible, and you can't even leave one dish in the sink (even if it's rinsed off) without being swarmed by 10 million of these little fuckers! I hate bugs! Hate them! And I don't know what to do. I even had my house fogged last summer and it didn't help at all! Right now I'm sans bug spray, so I've been using anything I can find...Lysol counter cleaner, hairspray, air freshener, and now I've resorted to Pledge, citrus scent. That's it, Gabby! No more bananas and grapes for you! It only makes the problem worse. Even if my kitchen is spotless, they migrate to the bathroom and hang out on the mirror...I don't know what the hell they're getting from there! Maybe they like Windex...maybe that's why it doesn't help as a substitute bug killer.
Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together. I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this. In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot. We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear. It's a perfectly, imperfect technique. I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own. I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will. Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige . Shelves and floor...

This mother and daughter were having the biggest problems with worms in their closet! WORMS!!!! They were crawling all up and down the walls inside the closet, on the door, and flies were EVERYWHERE in their bathroom, which was the next door to the right of the closet.
Come to find, a man had DIED in the upstairs apartment, and had been there for SEVERAL DAYS! The worms were MAGGOTS!!!!! The mom had called the police to tell them about the "worm" problem, and then they figured they should check the upstairs, to which they discovered a horrible stench in the hallway. EEWWWW!!! Can you IMAGINE????
