The Nesquik wash will be a spectacular sight. Speaking from experience, and if your machine is a top loader - do not fill machine with water more than half way up the tub. One of my boys did a chocolate nesquik wash with a full tub and it spilled all over the laundry floor. Yes I made him clean it up. Even behind the machine.

Dunno about front loaders. And strawberry nesquik is easily identifiable as such, unlike chocolate. Sympathies for your situation.

Nah all good. It spilt on unopened food.

It surely was! Great foaming waves of froff spilling out from the lid and onto the floor. And the residue was sticky and hard to shift once dry.

Thank you. I feel like I've been preparing my whole life for this.

Glad you got her out! I read your earlier comment at some point during the day and it just kept playing on my mind. This is the first chance I've had to revisit this post. Yeah that's just not right at all.

I thought what would I do. I wouldn't sleep there. I wouldn't even stay there during the day. But I would still fulfil my obligation to feed the dog. That was my advice to YL and she took it.

Wise decision. I mean, I've had times in my life, when I was really rock bottom depressed for example, and I let the housework go shamefully. But I would always take action on insects and rodents and prevent infestation, no matter how I had to drag myself around to do it. And I would never have people in the house to see my shame or expect someone to stay there and deal with it. That's just awful. How can they not be ashamed?

I honestly don't know. The place isn't a hovel. It's not a hoarders paradise. It was just infested with rotten food around. Very odd.

I'm no clean Jean but I don't leave food laying around to decay.
