My neighbor issues aren't as gross as Todd's, but my new neighbor smokes like a chimney to the point where my bedroom, which shares a wall with said neigbor, reeks of cig. smoke. I wake up every morning with sinus issues and coughing. I spoke to the apt. manager, but there's not much they can do other than ask to smoke less (yeah, right).
Do y'all know of something that will cut the smell from my apartment?
ChiKat, can you seal up anything between your apartment and his? like electrical outlets and such?
I'm attempting to add some flavor to this chickpea salad without actually doing much more work, like chopping or grating vegetables. I tried onion powder, and it seems to work pretty well.
This is a total stab in the dark, but is there something in the lease or in IL rental law about the landlorld being responsible for keeping the building in a state where it's not unhealthy to live there? If so, then you could pressure the landlord to do something, which might entail the landlord coming up with some arrangement with the other tenant....
There is 1 outlet on the wall we share. I use it.

That's worth checking in to.
I meant, put tape around the outlet plate. Maybe seal up - with tape - any places along the baseboard where there might be a gap.

Homemade "Febreeze" using diluted cheap vodka with essential oils?

oh! I will look and see if there are places.

Is that better than real Febreeze (or cheaper?)?
I use this stuff instead of Febreeze [link] , and it works pretty well on everything I've tried it on so far.
