@Joe Riley Yep, we had absorene also. Wal-vet (maybe I'm misspelling it) was a dingy green-colored mass of some kind of absorbent, and yes, it stank of solvent, very possibly benzine! Frank
I will clean the carpet with water and 20 Mule Teem Borax. Works great and keeps insects out, probably not as well as the spider that lives just outside my front door and under the steps outside the door to the garage. They're my pets (lol - not really). Also, will clean the mini blinds, door knobs and light switches. A little each day until done.
Awe yes... Spring approaches and I wash the coats ,sweaters, and anything else that needs it. We live in apartment so have not done blinds or windows in years. I do clean up patio door good. Already have a few things am trying sell for a few dollars. Clothes that need to be taken to the Goodwill Oh and will be transplanting my plants and getting them back in shape..
I suppose cleaning the gutters, the roof, raking the neighbors pine needles off of our lawn spring cleaning. Oh yeah, then there is the porch to work on today and then clean the back yard tomorrow and cut some tree limbs so I can put the pool up again thing. And then there’s the ...oh forget it! Simple answer: yes.
