Today I will tell about three things that I must do in the apartment before we leave for the country and leave the apartment alone for a long time. I am sure that every reader will be able to adopt at least one of the following tricks.
1. Before leaving I always pour some vegetable oil in the sink, sink and bath drain. This prevents the appearance of an unpleasant odor in the apartment. Unpleasant odors can result from drying out waste that accumulates in the siphons of sinks and bathtubs. Vegetable oil envelops them, prevents them from drying out and slows down the evaporation of water. Enough literally a couple of tablespoons. Scroll the photo to the right.
2. The second trick has to do with security. Before leaving for the country, we always set the timer to turn on the TV and every day from 9 to 12 pm he works. Glow and sound coming from the TV can scare off thieves.
Of course, this method is already quite outdated, but despite the fact that we have an alarm system and cameras installed in our apartment, we always use this method. There is a timer function in all TVs, which have been produced over the past 20-25 years.3. With this trick, flowers left at home alone will always be watered. Place next to the flower any container with water, it should be higher than the pot. We take a guide, it will do any thick thread, ribbon, rope or tube. We put one end in water, slightly bury the other next to the flower - the simplest automatic irrigation system is ready. To help the water evaporate less, you can cover the container with a lid. If there are several flowers, we lead a guide from the container to each pot. I liked the article - rate it like and subscribe to the channel!
