[@HourPointOfView]

Welcome back! Thank you for watching us! Let us know if you want to see more vlogs involving us remodeling. Don’t forget to like this video 😀

[@LivingAsLisha]

Of course we do! (Well I do anyway lol) I’m just starting my land/house journey and I’d love to see the “sweat equity” you all put into this house so o can have lots of ideas to pull from. Keep the homemaking coming too when life starts to get back into routine

[@Metro-p9w]

Hello 👋 New subscribers enjoying your channel. I live in Michigan we have the same problems here. We called exterminator to spray our homes ORKIN is a good company. Blessings

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you for the support! Definitely a lot of sweat equity going into this home lol. I’m going to start using that a lot now 😊. And I hope your journey goes as smooth as possibly. Definitely be prepared for bumpy roads

[@HourPointOfView]

Hey! We actually looked at Michigan before choosing Ohio. Very beautiful state. We have a pest control that’s been coming and we are seeing good results. Thank you for the information 😊

[@shaunjones6343]

What made Yall choose Ohio? CBus is an awesome City,I grew up in Virginia my Mom was born and raised here

[@itsSavThomas]

Bless you, mama!! You might want to put some peppermint oil On cotton balls and place them in corners, by windows etc. You can also dilute it a bit with some water and put it in a spray bottle and spray those same areas regularly. Peppermint oil is a repellent to rodents and a lot of bugs. Hope it helps!

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you for this 😊

[@pattybishop8016]

Great job! I think the patio doors will look great with the blinds inside. Girl, you guys need to call a pest control company to come out and few times to get rid of the bugs! Love your decorating style!

[@LifeWithMonet60]

Yes please more home content on what you guys are doing!! I love it ❤

[@HourPointOfView]

Definitely will 😊

I found your channel last week and binge watched your videos. Love all of your content. Yes indeed keep it coming sis, I need it all. Blessings to you and your family. I’m from NC living in NY so I definitely understand the difference with neighbors and just being out and about 💕

[@deborahhinds2298]

If you spray the outside perimeters of your house and the basement at the same time, it will help tremendously. My husband would spray our home, especially after a lot of rain. By the way, I enjoy your family and your content. Happy Holidays!

[@cfox1789]

If the house was truly unoccupied for 20 years you need a pest service company ASAP.

[@leonorperez5439]

I agree 💯

[@HourPointOfView]

We had one come out like a week and a half ago and then again today. This company was WAYYY more thorough.

[@Mssummer362008]

Yeah bugs are in the walls

I want to see ALL of the Renovations🔥🚨

[@HourPointOfView]

Stay tuned 😊

[@shawnawilliams263]

Have the AC/ Heating duct work cleaned. Also check the attic for bugs. Also have the house sprayed for pest inside and outside because the house has sat for so long and the bugs have moved in.

[@antoinettebrown3834]

I am sooooo impressed with your ability to do that work as well as you two have done to improve on your home! Gurlllllllll I don’t play no bugs either! Call the Orlin man and have them spray around the perimeter of the house too!

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you so much!! I love creating a nice space to thrive in ☺️

[@kreationbykerri5157]

Remember the house is old. I have had 4 houses build and as soon as we move in I see spiders and lady bugs, the south. Keep your house sprayed and outside.❤

[@HourPointOfView]

Definitely will. We are still focusing on sealing all the gaps. We had a small gap above the door yesterday and a big battle looking thing come up and went right back in. It’s crazy how they squeeze through everything

[@sorij3560]

I love watching house projects especially in older homes. A little love is what they need. Your living room looks great!

[@jasminealysse4]

Your are gorgeous! ❤ You should also create a cookbook.

Omg, that spider was big! I would have had a heart attack. 😫you guys did so good with the remodeling of the mantle. It truly looked brand new!

[@HourPointOfView]

I almost had one lol I’m still thinking about a that thang. And thank you, I’m really amazed by the fireplace

[@slh9246]

You can sprinkle cinnamon in corners and cracks and keep them out!

[@LifeWithMonet60]

Can’t wait to see the rest on the living area. This is an exciting time for you all. So happy for you ❤

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you so much!! We have so much to do so stay tuned

[@ParvatiHumhara]

Sometimes compromising sucks 😢 I really hope that in the end you enjoy the doors with the blinds. I think the Mantle turned out awesome,It's really really awesome what you can do with concrete and paint

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you! I’m getting use to them

[@themassarofamily]

Would love to see more home Reno pretty much any video you post I love so do you!

[@HourPointOfView]

Aww that’s what I love to hear 😀

[@tammymarie5996]

I used to have to set off a "fumigator a bug bomb" once a month until it was gone. I got them from a hardware store. Going forward, I hope this helps🙂

[@HourPointOfView]

So far so good 😃

[@BalanceLifeBabe]

Yeah our home is in back of a farm. We had to get an exterminator for the first year to keep spiders and ant and whatever else away. We’re starting to see spiders again. I think it’s common to see huge bugs like that, when a house sits for awhile

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you for the insights. It’s get better and we’re doing our part so everything will work itself out

[@jojoreid7867]

Get some orange and lemon oil and spay it around the house. Get some citrus type plants and put it around your house. Squeeze the leaf gently to release the scent.

[@HourPointOfView]

Will do thank you

[@EvetteUniqueRobinson]

I just found you and I wanna see all the home remodeling content!!

[@HourPointOfView]

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you! Will do! Love ya ❤️

[@patriciabarnhart1886]

Dehumidifier in your basement, and even another in your garage, etc. Moisture draws bugs. Loved my French doors with blinds. They can be completely rolled up.

[@rachelj4970]

I also live in the midwest and we just have a lot of bugs. They are a nuisance but I have learned to live with them. I take all ladybugs outside. They are a beneficial bug. And every few years we "bomb" the whole house with a raid fogger.

[@HourPointOfView]

Did you guys seal the house up? Check for gaps around the baseboards, window trims , door trims, etc?

[@breonnawalker7704]

I’m so excited to see your house transform into a home ❤

[@HourPointOfView]

Stay tuned, we have a lot planned 😊

[@michelleguidry6491]

Thank you for this ! You’re definitely right

[@MrBdeck]

[@HourPointOfView]

❤️❤️

[@pokeyphillips9087]

Oh no, I'm sorry about the doors, I had those in my old house and I hated them so much! It drove me crazy that I couldn't just have plain glass when I wanted. I bet the door guy tried to convince you to go ahead with them because they aren't as popular as they used to be and he wanted them sold.

[@HourPointOfView]

Right?! They eventually swapped them out for regular ones

[@christelarmstrong9598]

I agree about the bugs i moved from NYC to 8 hours away into Pennsylvania and the journey is real got a beautiful home and did the work to avoid what we have seen and really not use to seeing all the large spiders and host of other creatures of nature living indoors but now i know i have to except this new way of living at times it gets the best of me 🥺 just think of it as a constant maintenance tactic to have less inside home..blessings family

[@adriane1031]

The livingroom is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you ☺️

[@deniseowens4543]

You really do need a Pest Control Co to check out your situation since you do live in a woodie area they can come in and set what they call a "bomb" off and check the outside.

[@HourPointOfView]

They come out weekly and it’s been a huge difference, especially with us sealing up the house

[@JolondaSpears]

I would love to see working on the house as well, shows another side of life. & gives inspiration 😊

[@HourPointOfView]

Sounds good! Thank you for letting me know ☺️

[@mariakepler1700]

I want to see the progress of the house

[@HourPointOfView]

Stay tuned

[@byTaheryah]

I like the updated look of the fireplace and walls, it's a good, affordable option since new wall panelling would be expensive. The two tone of the white wall and wooden shelves is a very nice touch instead of all white. Very excited to see the finished look!

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you ! I really love the way it came out

[@gelsilicawalker3835]

Nice.

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you

[@Jenna1814]

We also live out in an area with bugs, we are currently fighting bees. Peppermint oil (the real stuff) will make them go away. Also, lavender and garlic. any strong-smelling thing. Our house smells like peppermint right now 😁

[@HourPointOfView]

Thanks for the tips!

Love the makeover so far

[@Intentionalwithlelum]

I’m new to your channel! Hello! But I wanted to comment on the bug situation.. take down the blinds and seal any cracks around the windows and in the dry wall!!! Once we did this in our home the bug problem disappeared! They were coming in from the cracks in the dry wall and trim behind the blinds sis .. just wanted to share that ❤

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you! We did all that. Even seal around the carpet and the baseboards in the basement

[@Intentionalwithlelum]

@lelelum4103 thank you! We’ve seen may 3 bugs in the last few days and that’s with the window guys having the windows out at times. Thank you for the support , we really appreciate it 😊

Ortho Home Defense Insect Spray is amazing! Spray inside your home as well as the outside perimeter of your house. 10 out of 10 highly recommend! Blessings ❤

[@HourPointOfView]

Aww thank you for this! I’ll go buy some today

[@HoneySnowflake]

Omg the living room is looking soooo nice! You guys are doing an amazing job

[@HourPointOfView]

Thank you! I’m glad you like it ☺️

[@Ohwell32]

Hi there! When we moved into our place we had some spiders to get rid of too. That big spider you had may have hitched a ride from California, because spiders in the Midwest don't usually get that big. It may have been someone's pet or something. As for your videos, whatever you want to put on your channel is fine with me. You should be able to post whatever you want since it's your channel. Have fun with it! You're doing a great job so far.

[@amberfrazier575]

Girrrrl, you can paint that stove black or white and use a cricut to re label it they make enamel appliance paint in tons of colors. Just sand and clear coat… If it bothers you. I feel like you never get a cute saige or rose pink when you get stuck with the 1950’s appliances. I saw your entry makeover and saw your living room and knew you had to have a living room makeover. If you want the French doors go find some you can watch a KZbin video on installing and do it your self in the future. If you truly got a good deal you can make a profit on Re sale.

[@LivingAsLisha]

Baby that fireplace!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@HourPointOfView]

lol I can’t wait! It’s almost all done. This space is going to be my spot

[@JAGreen-lj9zi]

😲Buy 2 big mint plants from the garden shops or hardware stores, get some small planters and buy plant soil Now break off some mint limb with leaves and plant them in the smaller planter pot in the soil. Make 4 to 6 of the new replants then put them about 3 pots in a room.😲 bugs cant stand peppermint and cinnamon scents and smell it makes their bodies sting. They will pack up and leave. For crawly bugs like roaches put a mixture of 2tbs of baking soda mix with 2tbs of boric acid powder and teaspoon of white sugar and sprinkle it along the wall to the corners of the room. They will eat that then swell up and pop at night cause they can't burp like animals can🕷🕷🦂🐜 Also this is natural harmless bug repellant.

Honey the bugs are being sealed in. They hide then come out when they are comfortable!

[@HourPointOfView]

We’ve been running our dehumidifiers and having pest control spray weekly. Ever since we sealed the inside of the house (new flooring , new baseboards, caulked around baseboards, trims, added weather stripping, etc) HUGE DIFFERENCE. It’s only up from here. All of our new windows are almost done and new siding installed this week.
