This is especially for women and mothers, who may need repairs and think it’s a man’s job. It’s not! You can do it. Yes you can!

What if my landlord refused a walk-through for the apartment upon move-in?

Hello. Early May, my room mates and I went searching for apartments. We went to one place where the apartment manager showed us the unit we will be living in if we rented there. When we got a walk-through, there were already tenents in there, so we did not get the chance to fully inspect the condition of the apartment. The place was a mess but we figured it was only the current tenents’ mess and it would be cleaned up when we moved in. She assured us that it would be cleaned up. When September arrived, we moved in and found the place to be in shambles, meaning rust on the carpet, bathroom sink wasn’t grouted in replace of what looked like black mold, the fridge wasn’t cleaned etc.. A couple of days after we moved in, we decided to get the apt. manager to do a walk-in so that we can cover our ***** and not get charged for this damage upon move-out. She sourly refused and screamed “if you dont like it, MOVE OUT!!” What to do? Thanks!
We have taken pictures of all the damage and electronically dated them, but have not mailed them to her. Its been 2 months, is it too late for this?

I bought raw peanuts at publix and there are black spots on them. Is that normal?

It looks similar to mold. The peanuts inside look fine. I want to boil them do you think they are ok?

On one of my science experiments, the berries I had used had fuzzy white mold on it. What’s that mold called? (Note: they were in a humid enviorment)

The second one is a cheese stick in a humid enviorment that started to grow some black mold(this was also in the humid enviorment.)

Thanks!
