If it’s not perfectly tight, which you can do by shrinking the plastic with a hairdryer, there are plastic creases and wrinkles. 

Sealing off the adjoining wall with a sheet of plastic would be the call of action when the property adjoins another.

Buy a couple of boxes of black plastic garbage bags, some simple cookware and eating utensiles, and a lock your bedroom door.Then this is what I suggest: Instead of washing their filth, bag it in garbage bags and throw it out.

That is rule one for the lazy land lord buy small houses it means less work overall,So on to painting If you talk to any experienced old school painter they will tell you that you need to cut in. which is making a border around the ceilings and base boards.this is a very very important step for the lazy land lord because doing this step properly will allow you to use the roller much easier and quickly so you can get home to your couch and the game. but more important it will prevent you from getting paint on the ceilings which will need to be brushed in later brushing in paint on the ceiling is time consuming and tedious so avoiding paint on the ceiling is the lazy landlords first priorityMany old school painters will tell you to get a good cut in brush. but if you are not familiar with painting the cut in brush can take quite a bit of time, to get efficiently good results my solution buy a paint kit that comes with a cut in tool it should look like a rectangular plastic thing a ma jig that has little wheels on one sidethis device allows you to quickly do the border in record time.The secret I found to using this tool is to gently place it on top of your paint so it floats on the surface for about 2 seconds you dont want the wheels getting paint on themjust the applicator I didnt use the pole attachment I think the hand allows more control and gets you up close to the work.

If your tenant keeps the place very clean then that is a good sign they take care of themselves and where they sleep and the things they own etc.With the carpet you can have a plastic cover between the carpet and the pad to prevent soak through.I listed a property once when I first started out that had over 50 cats most feral.

They even give the discount to my spouse using her mil spouse ID.One limitation I have encountered is the discount cannot be applied to a business transaction (using plastic).

I tried putting in a plugin freshener but the vinyl smell is competing with the freshener now.If I had to describe the smell it would be fresh cotton with a hint of burnt plastic and a dash of grade school eraser.

@Brian Ortins As far as the tub/shower wall board its plastic it hold great you can install with liquid nail it is easy to install.

You will have a local seller of pest control products, which is where the pest control guy gets his stuff from.Buy one of those plastic canisters that you pressurize (can't remember what they are called), some good old Cyper WP or Permethrin, and have at it.

Unfortunately, he can't do the work until spring, so we're charged with wrapping it up in plastic for the winter.
