Question: PERMANENT MARKER! HELP! My two year old son marked all over my newly painted walls, my couch, my new vinyl kitchen floor, refrigerator, wooden cabinets, stove, and ceramic tile!!!!! (Never fold clothes in another room!) He used a PERMANENT MARKER and I'm disgusted and don't have a clue as to how to get this all off. Any advice. I tried finger nail polish remover on the vinyl floor (it just smeared), hairspray on ceramic (budged it a little) and I have not touched the walls or couch!

Answer: Moth balls smell - Hi, Try leaving some scented fabric softener sheets in luggage while it is closed to make it smell better. Also a product called Febreze is really good. It is sold near fabric softener in grocery store. Good luck. Chris "Chris" - babyladynsp317@comnospamcast.net 25 Mar 2004
Question: Removing the Smell of Moth Balls Hi, How do you remove the smell of moth balls from fabrics, furniture, carpet and walls? Thanks so much for your help. mydorman@bellsouth.net 26/07/2005
Answer Mothballs Smell: The smell is what protects the clothes from the larvae of the moths and other insects. You can buy odorless moth balls however. By the way never kill spiders, if you make your house unfriendly to spiders then insects will multiply and ruin clothes, books and so many of your posessions. Mothball smells will eventually go of their own accord.-- McGlitchie
