    • @serkotsins
      @serkotsins 3 месяца назад +18

      Funfact: Mass planting thousands of trees creates harmful monocultures that are less complex than natural forest ecosystems. Monocultures do not properly support wildlife, they limit biodiversity and they are more susceptible to wildfires and disease. Not to mention trees mass planted closely together will compete for sunlight and nutrients, which makes them even more susceptible to disease and drought. Tree restoration efforts can be done right, but mass planting like this is bad.

    Coming from someone who suffers like this, people need to understand most people in this type of situation don’t want to live like that, they know and are ashamed of themselves and the filth, but after so long you just get so overwhelmed and over run by the things that you just let it get out of hand. Yeah we could’ve cleaned it up before it got terrible, but sometimes you just don’t have the motivation and it’s not laziness it’s depression. Being so mentally and physically exhausted you lose control of everything and for them to allow someone to help them is such a brave thing to do and him not judging that makes it ever so better. All I’m getting at here though is don’t judge people on first basis stuff like this. Yes, I understand some people are just truly lazy, but there is a difference between lazy and mentally exhausted. Try and offer support to those who are struggling, don’t judge them, commend them on trying to get better on asking for help. And by no means am I saying this situation is directly what I am explaining, as I am not in their shoes and cannot fully grasp what’s happened!

    Hoarders have to go through a process of counseling and training their brain to learn how to throw stuff away that they do not need to keep. If it is untreated, it will quickly go back to what it looked like at the beginning of the video. This requires professional help. Other videos, people just don’t care about how their vehicle is.

The inside was so severe. I guess this is where he lives for the time he's working planting trees. I have carried the saplings in a bucket and a shovel to plant trees. It is exhausting work. 4 giant bags of interior contents was a lot. You did a great job on the interior, both the seats and the carpet. The steamer is really your buddy and works so well. I really like the product badge in the left bottom corner that tells us what product is being used at the time. VERY SMART. The reaction of the BIL at the end was so sweet. They know the owner has difficulties but are sure supportive of him and that shows love. Your cleanup of this car for FREE, really shows your character and kindness. We all have some bumps in the road as we live our lives and help is available. Thanks for pointing that out again. Have a wonderful weekend knowing how proud of you we all are and how much we admire you. 💜

    My husband work vehicle gets coated in bugs daily. We didn't have a pressure washer to get most of the bugs off or any proper bug spray so when we washed it, the paint was coming off with the bugs. I told him that I'd have to get some bug remover for next time or he needs to take his work vehicle to a car wash weekly

    Ammonia and steam usually works well for me, I have to deal with stains in carpets in my housekeeping business. Saturate with ammonia let it set a couple of minutes agitation, then steam then extract.

    That was a pretty heroic job of tree planting after fires. Thank you for the back-up boost. For a person that would have known where they put stuff in the car, having everything miscellaneously bagged might be strenuous to refind items. I think it is o.k. to put things in categories, as all clothing together, all papers together, etc. and special collections, as the rocks or finger nail clippers, could go in plastic zip sandwich bags, etc. Tubs would not fit in that car, but clear bags would be a good choice overall. Not your normal method, but according to Midwest Magic Cleaning, who deals with autism, mental illness, ADHD, illness and other trauma categories, it prevents additional trauma and stress. Impressed both with your work and the fact that the car was relatively clean, considering dirt roads, dust, ash, etc. a fire site could have.

So amazing to see the care and dedication you put to your work and especially in this situation.The extra touches on the headlights and with the Goo Gone were very thoughtful too. You're a good man. Kudos to the family for supporting their loved one and thanks to the tree planter for being there for the environment in tough climate times. Great shots of your work explanations of what you're doing and details of how you're doing it. Love the video, as always.

I just want them to be able to exist in a clean space again and it’s nice to see you help make that happen. Also, I was watching you before this, but Midwest Magic Cleaning gave you a shoutout last week!

Keep up the great work Mitch!

    What you did is not “small” in any way! It’s MASSIVE. You have a genuine heart and are a shining soul. The BIL and sister are phenomenal and showed just how much they love this man, unconditionally. Going into any situation that is horrific causes so much suffering and absolute chaos to the brain. This man went away from home, lived in his car to help others. What a remarkable man. I’m not easily moved but acts of pure kindness always makes my eyes sweat a bit. Bless all of you, you make the world a better place everyday. 💚🙏🍀

    20:12 Oxi Clean. Get some of that for red stains. A little back story now. Had some friends over, they got really drunk, one was so trashed she was spilling beer all over my brand new couch. I tried to stop her by just taking her beer bottle away and she hit me in the nose with it. I started bleeding all over the carpet, really badly. I got light headed. Next day I tried getting the blood stains out. I tried everything. Tide, bleach, 409, glass cleaner, all purpose cleaner, degreaser. I tried something new or mixed stuff over a period of a month. I had given up. Then I saw a commercial for Oxi Clean. Went to the store and got some. It was a powder you mixed with really hot water. The blood stains started coming out immediately. All of it came out and you couldn't tell I had ever had an accident. That was 24 years ago. Hopefully they still make it. I haven't bled all over my carpet since that night.

    If the owner of this vehicle has a hoarding issue- throwing out their stuff is traumatic and adds to their anxiety. Which is why helping such people is tricky. It means addressing the root of such troubles and is a choice each person has to make for themselves.
