Hi Shannon & friends - I'm at my wits end with what I think are weevils! MOnths ago found so threw them out, but have been continuing to find them lying around everywhere, on all shelves in all cupboards of my pantry, dead & alive. Then on the outisde of the cupboard and kitchen walls, lately now in different rooms of my house (study, bedroom!), Saw what I thought was a midgie flying but upon examination when it stopped was the same insect I thought to be a weevil! DO weevils fly? They are literally slowly taking over my house. I've done the HUGE cleanout of my pantry - opened & inspected every container/packet & discarded anything that had anything to do with insects. But I'm still finding them everywhere. HOW DO I PERMANENTLY GET RID OF THESE ANNOYING PESTS PLEASE???? Thanks in advance! Aly

Disaster into Paradise! Great work! When can you come to Seattle and help me? Bravo!!!

After two years of rainy, unpredictable weather in Brisbane, I recently went to remove clothing items from my walkin robe and found mould randomly distributed through the garments.

Should i try to spray the room and its contents? Your help is greatly appreciated. I love the show and have all your books. Sonya

Help! My 6 year old son has absolutely trashed his white School shirt today - he is always being careless at school and getting felt-tip pen (or texta, not sure what you call it here) on his white shirt. Today he came home with felt-tip/texta pen marks all over his shirt and goodness knows what else. So far today, I soaked it in Napisan Preen Stain Removal Powder for 2 hours and have just been washing it in a 40deg wash with Omo and more Napisan - but it doesn't seem to have come out. I did a quick Google search and a few stain removal tip pages mention using Hairspray. But as I don't have any in the house: if I get some tomorrow and spray it on the stains, a) am I too late to try the Hairspray method of trying to get the pen marks out; b) if I'm not too late, how long should I leave the hairspray on each stain before washing it and c) is there any other method that I could try this weekend?
If anyone can help, please reply! Cheers,
K.Mendis
