I am so pleased to see you wearing full protective gear. you cannot take any chance of bringing those bugs back into your own home. I worked in healthcare for over 40 years and never wore the shoes I wore to work back into my house. You did an amazing job but this woman needs serious help. In my job we would have taken steps to have her removed for her own, and her neighbors, well being.

I know you help for free and especially the poor woman with dementia, but you also helped the landlord. They should pay you something. IMHO. You are an awesome human being.

Just the fact that you're helping lonely old people with dementia warms up my heart and makes me want to go and help people in my neighborhood, but I'm afraid of bugs!! 😨. I personally know people with dementia. They suffer so much, it makes you wanna cry. Thank you for helping helpless old people. Thank you so much. You are a warrior.

Of all the cleaning channels I watch, you definitely work on the worst places. It may not be possible for you to have another person with you, but these places almost require a team. You did an amazing job as always!

This is really one of the saddest apts I have seen. She’s going to need weekly extermination for a months and then professional monthly extermination indefinitely . At least Barbie got it clean enough to allow a professional exterminator to address the roaches 😩 Barbie’s cleaning this apt is a priceless gift for the resident and the owner. I suspect this is a government housing facility, based on the brown cabinets. Barbie really is a gift.

Another mission impossible, but you did it. You have my deepest respect. Who knows how many people live like this? Thank you for a thought provoking video.

My mom was in assisted living in her last years. No dementia, but her vision was failing. She was concerned she would leave the stove or oven on, so she pulled the knobs off, put them in a bag and put them in the now unusable oven. She learned to “cook “ in the microwave. Meals on wheels also helped so much.

That was very perceptive of your mom. Here in Japan, there is a woman cooking expert who has single handedly reinvented all kinds of dishes to be cooked in the microwave. Even dishes that you would swear could never be done in the microwave, she has been able to do them. Basically she is just interested in microwave cooking but it is a very safe kind of cooking for the elderly. Especially along with other services like meals on wheels.

It's sad to think we don't look after each other like we are suppose to. Family and friends need to stay alert of the elderly. The world needs more good people like you Barbie.

I can't imagine taking this on. Even with an entire sanitizing team working on it. I would feel so defeated that no matter how much cleaning, there's more and more to do and then all over again because of the shear volume of pest waste on every surface and unreachable places. You're amazing for tackling this. It must've been exhausting.

Barbie I dont know how you had the strength and mind set to do that apartment that must have been so overwhelming not just the cleaning everything out but the nice and roaches I know I could never have done it but you stayed with it and did an amazing job I feel so bad that she lived in that condition noone should have to live that way but thanks to you she can live in a clean home and cook thank you for what you did for her it looks so good I hope her landlord will get rid of the roaches and paint the walls you are a blessing to her thank you for giving her home back to her❤

I feel bad for her neighbors. They are living with rodents and roaches because our culture (U.S.) does not have realistic and effective mechanisms to care properly for the mentally ill. Illusionary mechanisms and illusionary system are all round us. This woman is incapable to live in an apartment alone. It is obvious. As you can see no real authority to help rectify the infestation and help the neighbors suffering with the rodents, roaches. All are left to suffer.

That makes me even angrier with property management. Don't get me wrong, part of me does feel sorry for the landlord because his property was destroyed, but this could have been avoided. This apartment didn't start looking like this overnight, this is years and years of neglect. It baffles me how some landlords can't be bothered to inspect their properties. So no, property management isn't blameless. It really is unfortunate for the neighbors because yeah there's no way that they aren't also infested. Hopefully the property management steps up and has an exterminator come in. Very sad for everyone involved. Hopefully she can get a live-in Nurse so that she doesn't have to go to a nursing home.

Steamer is so satisfying! Please try to get a garden pump sprayer. You can mix the Lysol (or cleaning solution of your choice) in it and cover more area and not have to use small bottles of solution. Note you can use bleach in a garden sprayer too just make sure you get one labeled for bleach use. This will help when you have large areas to clean quicker.

You did an extremely good job. The idea is to allow exterminators and/or maintenance workers to enter the apartment/house with no problem. A person not expecting the hoard and mice/roaches would not go near such an environment. I thought you did an amazing job on the stove top and surrounding counters. That fridge - kudos.🙌

So much to do in that small apartment, I wish I could afford to get you a bigger steam cleaner, they are great powerhouses when cleaning.
