How do you minimize humidity in a room here in Philippines to minimize molds and mildew growth? Thanks. :')
Oct 08, 2007 by demented_interloper | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I get along here in Malabon City, Philippines and although i clean my room every weekends, i notice that some of my things have molds growing on it. Examples are my computer mesa, some books and some part of the walls. They're at the early stage so i immediately wipe them off with alcohol (not sure if this would slay them). But within the next week, they're back again.
I was thinking that this has something to do with the humidity. Aside from wrecking the house down and build a new one with proper ventilation and stuffs (which i'm planning to do, provided that i can liberate enough money from work) how do i minimize the humidity? And how do i prevent molds and mildew from coming back?
It would be greatly appreciated if you guys could yield me with an insight. Thanks. :')
Air conditioning will taper off humidity if you keep all windows and doors closed, but you might not have that option to run an air con 24hours a day. Running an indoor elbow-room heater will also decrease humidity, but it is too warm in the Philippines to be running a heater!!
Try a mild chlorine blench solution to kill the mold on the walls, but be careful not to ruin your clothes or floor with bleach. Solely wipe it on with a sponge.
I don't know about the books. I would keep them in direct sunlight to stop the mold from growing on them, but the sunlight will also blanch your books, which you do not want to happen. Maybe keep your books where air can circulate around them freely.

I allow that you can buy fungicide at the store this would probably reduce the mold regrowth better. There are also plastic containers that admit a chemical substance that pull moisture from the air (called Damp Rid in the USA), or a small dehumidifier may labour although they tend to heat up a small area. Good luck.

How to minimize side effects of blood donation?
Feb 07, 410 by morgan | Posted in First Aid
When I hand-me-down to donate blood, I would feel tired the next
day, but I had no other significant side effects. I always
drink plenty both before and after donating, but the last
two times I've had a low-mark fever (chills/sweats) and
significant joint stiffness for two days afterward.
Are there other steps I can take to minimize thes side
effects?
One of the answerers mucroniform to a web
site which states there are no side
effects. So do I believe an expert
or do I believe my "lying eyes" :-)
I've gotten to a certain sick both of the
last two times.
I wonder if the beds in the blood
mobile could be a vector for the flu
virus? Dialect mayhap the puncture wound makes
me more susceptible to infection?
I will mention that the Red Cross
person who took my blood did upon
that some people report "flu-like"
symptoms after donation, so maybe I'm
not the only man to experience this.
Are there any known side effects of blood largesse?
No. Till date, there has been no medical proof of the side effects that blood donation might bring. Many have gone through the development without a hinch and from then saved the lives of million others.
Blood donation is quick and safe and does not outlay you a single cent.
I suggest you discuss this problem with your doctor.
