There’s a fine line between helping and enabling. If it were me, I’d take something nice for myself in return, like a weekend vacation or some new clothes, something like that. Otherwise, I’d be sooooo resentful and I don’t want to be resentful.

The strange thing about pest control is, that nobody wants to admit that they called them. I had an internship for 4 weeks at a pest control company, most of our work was "monitoring" if there was a problem at all (you lay out glue traps to control if any bugs got caught). We had to service the supermarkets very very early in the morning so that nobody would see the car in front of the supermarket. But EVERY store has bugs not and then. Even the hardware stores. So it is actually a good sign to see pest control somewhere, because somebody is taking care of the bugs at all! I think the key to not having bugs is don't feed them: store food in closed containers, don't leave any leftovers lying around. But the warmer the country, the higher the risk of getting bugs anyway - don't be ashamed to call pest control!

When I lived in Texas I never had cockroaches in one house because the scorpions ate them. Be careful what you wish for! And you’re right-never leave any food or crumbs out anywhere. This doesn’t eliminate cockroaches but it reduces them. I am always alarmed when I hear people say, “Oh, just leave the dirty dishes. I’ll clean up in the morning.” These people have never seen a cockroach or an ant infestation. Roaches will eat anything and can live a long time with no food at all. They ate my rubber spatulas to get at the microscopic oil left on them after washing. Yuck.

Those cockroaches also get into the electrics because they like anything that is warm. I speak from experience of long ago. The bathroom looks brand new and so shiney!!! You did a marvellous job. The lounge floor looks amazing!! The daughter didnt seem to have any belongings in her room. ☹

I think the timer idea is a GREAT idea! Having cleaned my own depression home, or having friends come over and help me clean, people don't understand that it takes DAYS - like 9am-9pm for the living room and kitchen over a weekend. Putting an iPad with a full-screen timer, or an analog clock in the shot would be a really awesome way for people to see how long these things actually take you.

I can't believe you were cleaning this house with sandals on, I'd get goosebumps if a roach got near my foot. You're really brave, and such an inspiration. There's times where I won't have the motivation to clean and then you will post and I'll get this surge of motivation to clean. thank you for everything you do Auri!

As heartbreaking as it is for the daughter at least her life has improved dramatically. If Auri told on all the people after she cleaned no one would let her do it.

Truly love what you do. I don’t know the mother’s situation but my Mum and brother were like this. Among other things, they left trash, food and plates everywhere, never cleaned and it was hard growing up like that. We lived in the UK so we would get lots of house flies and carpet bugs. I tried my best to clean when I got home from school but it became too difficult to maintain. I ended up suffering with childhood depression and I only felt better after moving out. That’s why I love what you do Auri! You help as much as you can and I can see your genuine passion about what you do. Cleaning is a demanding and sometimes gruesome task, but it does wonders for mental health to have a clean space to live in. I hope the girl in this house feels much better, and can finally have some good sleep and peace of mind. You and your brother are a blessing ❤ much love

I’m going to be positive here, at least she asked for help. She is a working mom also. She probably feels extremely overwhelmed and depressed. I am so happy Auri helped her in the right direction. I hope the mom can do the upkeep and realize she has value and worth. ❤

At that point, she should've used her child's discomfort as a motivator to do better. Sure, everything esle is already horrible, but that had to be the breaking point to literally see your child sleep in such a way, and for years too. Mind blowing to me. I don't wish anything well to the mom, I find her to be disgusting (literally too). I just hope she can do better at least (but I doubt it, as others mentioned). the only person I feel so bad for is the child. POOR THING.

Especially from school. Nobody made a report even once? All these years, Teachers, counselors, school nurse, nobody??? If shes not showering and there are signs of neglect, here in the US teachers are Mandated Reporters (just like healthcare workers, social workers, etc) It means that if you witness a child being ab*sed or neglected you must report it. If cps wouldve come there (especially in florida where they are very harsh) mom wouldve been arrested, and the child would've been removed & placed in foster care (unless there was an approved family member to release her to), and mom would have had to jump through hoops completing all their obligations and having them show up at the home several times for a home check to see if there's improvement. And it can be months or even years before they close your case. I've seen this happen to two different parents.

Mom shouldn’t be arrested, they should give her the help she needs. And for the time her mom is being helped, daughter should be cared for in a clean and safe home.

Auri, I've been a fan of yours for months now and have seen all your videos and already adore you immensely...but this house you cleaned was a new level. You are a living, breathing angel helping these people the way you do. I grew up with a single mom and three siblings, and due to our mother's state of mind and alcoholism, our house or apartment was always in a horrendous state. I had friends who would come over to help me clean every now and again. It always meant so much to me, even then, though especially in hindsight. What you are doing for these families, especially children, is huge. I remember being a child and thinking I wasn't good enough because I didn't have clean spaces like other people. I strongly believe these dirty environments are representations of how these individuals feel about themselves...a representation of their self worth at that time. By giving them the non-judgemental help that you do, I strongly believe you are helping their souls more than you know; perhaps especially the children. God bless you, Aurikatariina

The white spots on the wall look like spackle. In North American homes, spackle is a paste that gets put on top of the walls to fix them if they get dented or scratched. The white spots look like some minor damage was covered, and it hasn't been painted over yet.

As terrible as this situation has been, the fact that the mother asked for help and allowed Auri to film her home was a HUGE step in the right direction. I believe this showed that the mother did care however didn't know or was too embarrassed to ask for help. Shaming these people drives the problem further into the shadows of society and shows that their fear of letting people help them is justified. She obviously loves her daughter and wanted better for her. I believe that Auri has a way of earning the trust of people in the situation's we see. So she is a god send. So for anyone who has criticised this mum, I hope you can consider praising her for taking this huge step. I think that allowing Auri to clean was a courageous and admirable step. This woman is stronger than she thinks and now she can have a fresh start.

​@elizabethwoodley4340 yeah, but roaches can live off of the glue in furniture and walls, they can eat cardboard and paper... with those kind of roaches in a climate like southern florida, you need regularly scheduled pest control visits. I wouldn't recommend living in a condo.

This woman is straight up lying. There is no way she lets a child live like this and will suddenly just run out and buy a new fridge and couch and beds. This child should not be living here at all.

Auri, dont feel so down about those who tell you "you should've done more", "you didn't do this and that". Those people are probably new to your channel!

Just an fyi Auri, that type of mattress is called a euro-top and isn't supposed to be flipped. The dirty side is the only side you are supposed to sleep on (which is why I don't buy one). I don't blame you for flipping that one though, it was bad! But you can also buy mattress protectors where you buy sheets that will cover up the dirty side :) LOVE YOU!!!!!

@@ParisAntarktis I think they were gonna get under there regardless whether Auri killed them or not. They can’t do anything about the roaches. That’s a professional exterminator job, even if they killed a hundred, there’s probably a thousand living in every nook, cranny, in that wall (look at the walls with holes - they’re in there for sure). Let’s face it, “Nicole” and “Rihanna” have been living in far worse - they’re sleeping on a manky bogging couch every night, so at this point I don’t think it’s going to bother them if a roach or two is under the mattress. They’re more than aware of worse at this point. Hopefully by now they’ve seen an exterminator but something tells me that house will never be free of them. Like Auri said “it’s better than nothing”.

"and sometimes, individuals would drop from the ceiling on to us" 4:25 OMG Auri, you are literally narrating a horror film🤣. 8:02 exactly, you offer a service to clean for them, as the best cleaner in the world, not anything else. Cleaning is exhausting enough. Auri, you're a miracle worker.❤❤❤

To answer your questions: Cleaning does help keep roaches away! They sustain themselves on left out food and stagnant water. It's really important to clean dishes within reasonable time or at least rinse them. A lot of people take preventative measures to keep roaches from getting in by spraying chemicals around entry points of the home. As for the white spot on the wall, there was likely a hole there that was later filled and repaired with spackle.

Another great video. I too have wondered in the past, “why didn’t she…” but honestly the amount of cleaning you do already is astronomical. I’m glad you help “level the playing field” for the residence by doing the hardest cleaning and then encourage them to be involved in their recovery too. im glad you found the right balance between helping and empowering. 😁❤️

It makes me angry that people criticize you. You are amazing and what you do for people is extremely enabling and therapeutic. You are generous and kind, sweet and humble. I wish healing journeys for all your clients. The schools have extermination plans, the classroom is cleaned daily and trash (err, trashes) are removed from the building daily. Those roaches are sustained by all that trash. They also love cardboard. If this is an apartment building, the common areas are treated for pests.

Yes! The resident needs to take the steps to do what they can after your generous gesture, or else the home will just fall into the same condition over time without the resident making changing themselves. My loving and kind mother helped me clean my home when I was really depressed, and time after time it would get horrible again until I had to re-clean for days. Once I made my own changes, I was able to keep a clean home! You’re inspirational and so motivational with your positive attitude, thank you!!!

Don't listen to the hate comments about the couch. You can only do so much. You can't do it all. You got the home to the point where the mom could get some new furniture and give her daughter a better life. You get the person to the point where they can start helping themselves. And if people are that worried about it, they can always donate the furniture themselves.

Wow the bathroom came out absolutely amazing! And that toilet, wow! Looks almost new!!! Fantastic job!

I agree with you, do the beds! Even if they don't use them, it gives them the option to use if they want. Yes, sadly, the roaches will go in their ears, nose, and mouth while sleeping, and they carry bacteria on them and can make you ill. The reason they aren't everywhere depends on the environment, if it's not a suitable environment for them say lack of food they won't stay there. Too much activity and light they do not like it. Yes, cleaning helps, but even clean homes can have them. Although you can not do everything for these clients, what you do, do for them is amazing! Yes, they need to take responsibility for their homes and actions. It's not your place to hold their hands and do all for them. Those of us that follow you understand and truly appreciate you and all you do! Thank you Auri!!!

I love the time clock. It helps seeing that it can be done and long it takes. It makes it seem less intimidating. Gives hope. Thank you.

About roaches, since you're not from here: If you keep your house clean, you won't have roaches. If you keep dishes done and your food stored properly, then no problems. IF a few roaches come into a clean home, they came from outside or a nearby house, and you can immediately spray to keep them from staying and multiplying. They only stay if they have things to eat (food and garbage). Same with grocery stores. They HAVE to keep things clean. If they do, no roaches. But grocery stores and restaurants especially have to keep a close eye to prevent them. When we first moved into our home, it was evident that there had been some cockroaches from the former owner, and we had to battle them (not many) for a few weeks. But they have NEVER come back and we have lived in this house for almost 30 years now.

Thank you for the well wishes. I do not live in an apt though. It's more the edge of nowhere and the garbage has to go 1/4 mile up a steep hill and I don't have a car or anyone but my dog and a sled or cart to help take it there and it can only be done on one particular day otherwise bears, crows and other animals get into it. So if I don't feel well enough that day that week it doesn't get done. I also can't burn it due to allergies. So I put any food waste that's safe out for wild animals to eat. Most of the garbage is literally cardboard boxes which the garbage pickup won't take in winter since it all has to be in plastic bags due to frost laws. But most of the boxes won't fit in a bag lol I put the rest of the garbage in bags and keep it in the garage to take out when I can so it's not in the house. It's also super cold here so there aren't roaches so much. :) @@sellyourhomenowbook

Wow that lint trap in the clothes dryer was a big fire hazard!! Glad you cleaned that!

Dear Auri, please don‘t worry about these people who complain about the furniture!! It’s totally plausible that you need every minute for cleaning! Those people should make their own channel and spend their time to help the residents of these homes with new furniture. My dad always used to say to such people: „if you have a great idea, you have the honor to be the first one to make it happen.“

I've been watching your vids for a while now and I can totally see how much you do for people with a non-judgemental, positive attitude...and FOR FREE! You are doing such an amazing work & people still expect you to do more... these must be new viewers who don't know much about cleaning lol.. maybe they should start a KZread channel buying/thrifting new furniture for these people and see how hard it can be. Anyways sorry to hear you getting hate comments...but know that we see and appreciate all the hard work you do for these people and changing their lives.

Hey I wanted to thankyou for the motivation you gave me to see my mom and help her clean her house. I am a role model to my little sister and I am hoping she sees my helping my mom as not a chore, but a favor because we love family unconditionally. I admire your mentally and approach to this. It helps me and many other people gain confidence to better their lives. :)

You are an inspiration. I never knew I'd spend my time watching someone clean dirty homes. I grew up across the street from a family who lived very similar to most of these homes. I never understood how they could live the way they did. I wish I could have had the empathy and caring that you do.

The addition of the timer is a great idea Auri! Its a great reminder that in reality it took much longer to clean the space than what we saw in the clip. Love it.

Maybe someone in the Miami area will see this and recognize who this is. Auri would lose the ability to clean for people if they thought she would “turn them in” to social services. She is giving them a chance to start over, but it is not the ultimate solution, as Auri probably knows. Roaches don’t appear in schools and stores because they are sprayed to keep them under control. If the mom and girl leave the house during the day, they can spray to kill back the infestation.

You do wonders and you give people a real helping hand when they are down. I hope you never let the negative people get to you. What you do is amazing.❤

It would help if you could actually speak and write proper English. Auri gets it wrong all the time, but she is not an English speaker in the first place. You are. Trashes is a verb like "Auri's friend trashes her own apartment". What Auri should be saying is 'trash' when refering to what she is doing, and you should have just said 'trash'. I am not American but an Australian and we use the proper English spelling for mould, but you can be forgiven if you are American on that. Crockroaches, that is not a word. You mean cockroaches.
