My roommate and I were moving to a different apartment. We defrosted our mini fridge, but when we moved it, I forgot to take out the tray underneath the freezer part. It had all the melted ice and gross suff, and it spilled all over. We were in a rush, so we didn't clean the inside of the fridge at the time. A few days later when we opened the fridge, it smells like something died in there.
I've been trying to clean it for weeks, and the smell keeps coming back. I've tried to clean it with baking soda and water, scrubbed the inside with soap, and sprayed Lysol Antibacterial Food Contact Surface Cleaner (what a mouthful) to disinfect it. I've even unscrewed the door and cleaned off the gross stuff growing in the rubber lining, and it still smells awful. I am reluctant to throw away the fridge, and I want to know if there's anything else I could do to save it.|||Get a huge 100gallon drum of Bleach and hang the fridge by its electric cord and dangle it in the bleach over night. that should do it.|||Get the man in the house to do it|||ammonia, or bleach, dont mix the two though, it causes a chemical reaction and you can pass out|||Clean it with Clorox Multipurpose Bathroom spray cleaner. If that's noesn't do it use Simple Green Spray Cleaner. Then, put a bowl of fresh coffee grounds in the fridge. That will take out the smells. Don't use bleach on the rubber seals, it will make them crack and get brittle.|||There's only one answer now...
Lighter fluid, charcoal bricks, and a match.
Decontaminate that before it gets the rest of us!|||AMMONIA!!! It is the only thing that will kill mold and mildew. it will also keep it from coming back. it keeps away odor too. it's great for cleaning but be careful not to inhale it, it can make you very sick. also wear rubber gloves.|||bleach|||Hope this helps Good Luck !
How can I remove an odor from my refrigerator?
Here are four suggestions for removing the odor:
Unplug the refrigerator and thoroughly wash the inside of the unit with a mixture of two tablespoons of baking soda dissolved in one quart of warm water. Wash the shelves, drawers, accessories and gaskets. Be sure to wash corners, crevices or grooves where odor-causing liquid may have settled. Dry thoroughly.
Place activated charcoal or activated carbon in a shallow bowl and leave it in the refrigerator while it is running for several days. The charcoal or carbon is available where aquarium and/or plant and garden supplies are sold. It will become saturated but can be reactivated by heating in a 300 degree oven for one hour and then put back into the refrigerator. Try this for about 10 days.
Place toothpaste (not the gel type) on small pieces of foil and set in several spots in the refrigerator.
Lightly crumple sheets of newspaper and loosely pack a refrigerator shelf which has been emptied of food. Sprinkle the newspaper with water and close the door. Replace the newspaper every 1-2 days. In 5-6 days the odor should be gone.
If odor gets into the plastic lining or the insulation of the refrigerator, it can take a long time to dissipate.

First heat up the vinegar, pour it into a glass container,set it in the fridge,shut the door and wait untill it cools.
Then wash out the inside with the vinegar, rinse and your done.|||ok you ready? take the fridge to the local car wash, use the spray soap that comes out and then rinse and do again, then allow to air dry at home and put some baking soda in it.. Works wonders I promise. The soap at the car wash is better then anything you can buy. plus it's hot|||take it out side spray it down scrub with SOS pad dry good and put charcoal berquets inside for a few days the smell will disappear.|||Baking Soda...|||Sounds like you tried everything. I would take it outside spray it out with the garden hose and let it sit outside opened overnight. Could also try bleach along with above.|||Now that you've cleaned it, use it to store coffee grounds and fresh flowers and other non food garden cuttings for awhile and see if it overpowers the smell of death.
Plastic is porous. It's difficult to get residue out of plastic. I once tried soaking a plastic bucket which was stinky because a lot of dead snails had died in it. (I don't remember why dead snails died in a bucket but at the time I wanted to rescue the bucket.) I used a strong bleach and water solution and left it for many days but the smell was still there when I poured the water out. Even after I put it through another long soak, the smell lingered.|||Have you tried a bleach and water solution?|||Take it outside and use a hose and literally blast it and maybe if you dont wanna unscrew the door then use scrubber that can reach in there. Try Bleach and let it sit for an hour or so before rinsing.

What's the difference between mini and normal tampons?
because they both have the same absorbency according to the packet, but i was wondering, what is the difference?
would it be better to get the mini tampons instead of the 'lite' ones?
btw applicator
and i live in UK and dont think you can get playtex etc.|||mini are for when your period isn't that heavy.

What is the difference between a mini digital camera then a regular sized camera?
I plan on buying a mini digital key chain camera I need to know is it any different from a regular digital camera or the same.|||the resolution the mini key chain is going to give you bad quality pictures but for the size and the price is a good inversion|||you know how a cell phone camera looks on a cmputer? try deviding the quality by 10|||Smaller cameras will have less robust optics (less, if any optical zoom), will probably use a non-standard battery (AA is preferred, AAA is acceptable, anything else is a liability), definitely will have a smaller LCD screen (again, if any), and probably won't have an image capture chip worth sneezing on. If you can get it for $20 or so, it might be worth having as a cheap alternative to carrying around a real camera, but I'd still suggest getting a decent digital camera for primary use.|||Don't expect to produce any decent photos from a mini digital key chain camera.
It will never happen!!!|||Like a regular camera, a digital camera has a lens and a shutter that lets in light. But the light strikes an array of image sensors or photosensitive cells instead of film. The sensor array is a chip about 6-11 mm across. Each image sensor is a charged-couple device (CCD) which converts light into an electrical charge. The charge is stored as analogue information then digitized by another bit of technology called an analogue to digital converter (ADC). Every receptor in the array of thousands creates one pixel, and for each pixel a certain amount of information is stored.
Some digicams use CMOS chips as image sensors. CMOS stands for complementary metal oxide semiconductor; this refers to the process by which the sensor is made. The process is the same one used to mass produce DRAM and microprocessors so CMOS sensors are significantly cheaper and easier to make than CCDs.
Other advantages of CMOS sensors are that they consume less power and can have other circuits included on the same chip. These additional on-chip features can include analogue-to-digital conversion, cameral controls, image compression and anti-jitter stabilization.
However, these other circuits use space that would normally be used for light sensing. This makes the sensor array less sensitive to light, resulting in lower image quality when shooting indoors or other low light conditions. In the final tally, CMOS cameras are smaller, lighter, cheaper and more energy efficient, but be prepared to sacrifice some image quality.|||A key chain camera will produce unacceptable pictures. Really awful!
If you're wanting prints, go with an entry level Canon, Nikon, Olympus or Kodak. Expect to pay at least $100 for a decent camera, better at the $200 range.

How do I decorate my mini cupcakes with the classic swirl?
Please do not google for answer and then copy and paste. I am making mini cupcakes and I want to put the classic swirl on them. If they were regular size cupcakes I would use my starbit, but they are minis and the starbit i have is too big. Do they make a mini-starbit??|||yes, they sell mini star tips at most cooking stores. Doing the swirl may take a little practice, but it isn't difficult once you get the hang of it. Start by piping your frosting in a circle, starting on the outside and working your way in, and then in the center press down a bit with your pastry bag and pull up to get the peak in the center.|||Yes they make mini-starbits. I used to decorate cakes using the small starbit and put little stars all over the cake. That would work for your mini cupcakes nicely.
You may be able to find them at Wilton's on-line or maybe even at Michael's or Penney's where they carry the Wilton products. I'm sure other stores carry them as well, you'd just need to check the stores in your area.
Hope that helps.|||Yes, they have small starbit size decorator tips. Just go over where ever you can find a good selection of decorator tips.
Good luck.|||They make many different sizes of star tip. I would suggest a size 18 Wilton tip.

What do you think about the mini-paintballs for airsoft guns?
I have just started playing paintball and airsoft and really getting into them both, then I saw that you can get mini-paintballs and use your airsoft gun for both. Do you think they are a smart idea? What do you think about them overall? And do you think indoor or outdoor paintball places would let you use them? Thanks, I will be selecting a best answer.|||Definitely not! Those mini-paintball bbs are horrible for any airsoft gun. They are cheap and are very prone to breaking/exploding inside your gun and causing lots of problems.|||Major advantage to Airsoft : bbs are cheaper, clean and looks awesome.
Airsoft guns have precision barrels and most paint bb are not "hard enough" or "precise enough" to work well in an Airsoft gun.
And yes, if they break inside your barrel, it means trouble.
|||no do not ever use paintball ammo on airsoft guns or vice versa[unless it says on the manual]
the result is a damaged and jammed gun

What is something similar to a mini massager?
(please don't answer this question innapropiately) I need something that vibrates or moves a lot. I am trying to simulate an earthquake and I thought a mini massager could work, any other ideas?|||Any sort of motor that is out of balance will work. I suggest getting a really cheap electric drill. You can put large bolt in the chuck. Bend the bolt first. When you turn it on it will vibrate (wobble). If the drill is a variable speed drill you can change the vibration rate. Attach the drill firmly to the model you are making.
