Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make your bedtime consistent. Don’t expect huge changes right away. Know when to contact a professional for help.

Answer: Going to bed the same time every night will improve your sleep, and make it easier to go to sleep early. If you are trying to shift your sleep schedule to an earlier time, don’t expect to easily make a drastic change in one night. Try making changes in incremental steps. For instance, if you have been going to sleep at 11:00, and decide that you want an earlier bedtime of 10:00, don’t expect to jump back the whole hour on the first night. Instead, try going to bed for a few nights at 10:45, then a few at 10:30, then a few at 10:15, before hitting your goal of 10:00. If you are having serious problems sleeping, staying asleep, moving to an earlier bedtime, or keeping a consistent sleep pattern, it could be a symptom of another issue, or may require the assistance of medical professionals. If you have concerns, seek expert medical advice.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Soak your clothes in a baking soda solution prior to washing them. Wash your clothing. Put your clothes in a bag with baking soda if they have an extreme sulfur smell.

Answer: Baking soda is a common household product that is used for much more than baking. Baking soda is commonly used to remove terrible odors and stains, so it's the perfect product to use when you're facing an odor problem. It's a great deodorizer because it chemically neutralizes odors.  Do not wash your clothes prior to soaking them in baking soda. Add 1 cup of baking soda to a large bucket or tub, or add ½ cup of baking soda to a small bucket or sink. Soak the clothing in the baking soda mixture overnight – for 8 or more hours.  If your fabrics are machine washable, this method will work just fine. If clothes are dry-clean only, you should avoid this method and take them to a cleaner. To better remove bad smells from your clothes, add ½ cup of baking soda to your regular detergent when you wash your clothing. It will help to neutralize the odors, leaving your clothes smelling fresh and clean.  Wash your clothing in the water temperature indicated on the tag. Some fabrics and colors are better in hot water, some are better in cold water. Hang your clothing to let it air-dry. You can hang your clothing indoors or outdoors. Do not dry them in the dryer. If you've tried the baking soda soak and your clothes still smell of sulfur, try this before washing them again. Place the dry clothes in a plastic trash bag with ½ cup of baking soda. Leave the bag sealed for a day or two, then soak the sulfur smelling clothing in a baking soda bath. After you've done this, proceed to wash the clothes again.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Install cabinets or shelves. Use hooks on the back of the door for towels and robes. Hide a medicine cabinet behind the mirror. Place wire baskets in the shower to hold soap and shampoo.

Answer: Extra shelves and cabinets help organize your bathroom by hiding clutter. Opt for tall corner cabinets for discreet storage spaces to hold towels and additional toiletries without taking up much space.  Cabinetry can be added under a sink to store toothbrushes, deodorants, and other personal hygiene products. Shelves above the toilet add extra storage for extra toilet paper. A lazy Susan under the counter is a great way to organize extra items while keeping them readily available. Keep your towels and robes out of the way and out of sight behind your door. Different styles of hooks can be drilled into or hung from the door. If you want to keep your door clear, install hooks in the wall directly behind the door.  Command hooks make easy and cheap replacements for metal hooks. If you live in a humid climate, hooks may keep your towels damp. install a towel bar next to the shower so they can hang and dry. Storing pill bottles and small first aid kits in a medicine cabinet help clear off counter space. Find a cabinet with a mirrored door to keep the cabinet subtle. Hang the cabinet above the sink for easy access. Baskets can be attached with suction cups or hang from the shower head. Place the basket in a location that’s easy to reach. Store any bottles and bar soap in the basket to clear out the corners of your tub. Throw away any products you haven’t used in a while to remove any extra clutter you may have.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Clean the hair catcher, if applicable. Moisten the drain, if necessary. Use a metal pipe brush. Fish out other grime with a plumbing snake. Pour a gel drain cleaner into the drain. Finish up with a plunger.

Answer:
Remove the hair catcher or filter from an affected shower drain and clean it out thoroughly, removing all the hair tangled inside it. The key in destroying the drain fly's breeding ground is removing all hair, grime, and debris that the flies might lay their eggs in. Pour 1 to 2 gallons (4 to 8 liters) of warm water into the drain to moisten it slightly. Note that this is only needed if the drain is not used on a regular basis. Drains used on a daily basis are moist enough without taking additional measurements. Work a metal pipe brush into the drain, extending it as far down into the drain as possible. Twist the brush while slowly moving it up and down to remove grime from the sides of the pipe. Insert a plumbing snake into the drain and twist it through the pipes to pull out clumps of grime that lie further down. Apply roughly 4 oz (125 ml) of the cleaner around the edge of the drain.  Applying the cleaner to the edge of the drain allows it to coat the sides of the drain and pipe as it glides down. Gel cleaners are formulated to remove organic matter. You could also use enzyme or bacterial drain cleaners to remove organic material.  Vinegar, boiling water, and bleach are traditional remedies for getting rid of drain flies, but many experts insist that these methods are not effective.  Baking soda and vinegar poured down the drain may kill the flies; it will clean the drain at least. You may need to repeat the same dosage of drain cleaner once a day for five to seven days total. After the drain cleaner has sat in the sink for several hours, flush it through with plenty of water. Use a plunger to remove any remaining organic matter trapped in the sink.
