We've got a friend who is so embarrassed by the mold and mildew in her shower, that she wouldn't allow us to use her name. "Jane" needs some help -- she wants to get rid of her unsightly shower issues without toxic cleaners. What would you do?

In other news: Jonathan's found some cheap and decent CFLs at Costco, volunteers are needed to plant an edible garden in front of City Hall in San Francisco, and we're dealing with spiders ... gently.

They're creepy crawly and, honestly, they've got a bad reputation. So, what do you do when you want to keep spiders out of your house, but you don't want to exterminate them? You relocate them.

Think CFLs are too expensive?Consider buying them in bulk at Costco -- the prices are getting pretty low.

I read about Naturally Clean's Tub & Tile in the magazine "Natural Solutions." It's green, and the bonus is that it leaves the bathroom smelling very nice. I was wondering if someone has advice about getting mildew out of a shower curtain liner, which is white.
