- Things get bad before it gets better!!! Moving to nyc alone at 33 (vol.3.) has a lot of ups and downs. After watching so many moving to nyc vlogs, i thought my nyc move would be similar to those vlogs BUT it was the complete opposite.
In this moving to nyc vlog, Ashanti (IG: @_ashantishurat) comes to the rescue and helps to deep clean the apartment, continue to unpack, organize, find out about the cockroach issue (ughhhhh!!!) and update about the pest situation.
Thank you so much Ashanti (IG: @_ashantishurat; / _ashantishurat ) for helping me with the deep clean ❤️.
I really hope you guys enjoy this video!! Thank you so much for all your support! Don’t forget to like and subscribe to my channel.
Love you guys!!!!

![30'S AND THE [NY] CITY: cleaning my nyc apartment & realistic reset vlog (tired but productive days)](/img/1.gif)
Today's vlog is a short one! I am so behind on editing....thought it would be best to post it instead of waiting till next week. Thank you so much Ashanti (IG: @_ashantishurat; instagram.com/_ashantishurat/) for helping me deep clean the apartment ❤.
After watching so many nyc moving vlogs, i thought my move would be similar to those vlogs BUT it's the complete opposite. Things get worse before it gets better!! I know in this video and in upcoming vlog, things don't look that great but it does eventually get better :)
Thank you so much for all the love and support in the recent videos.

Ashanti is next level friendship goals. Everyone needs a beautiful friend like this.
Yes ❤❤❤She offered to help even without me asking!! I would have probably been cleaning the apartment for next two weeks if she hadn't come to my rescue.
@@TishaShrestha This is so beautiful to hear. We all need female friends like this. Best of luck with the rest of the move. I"m sure it will be beautiful!
@@boltoht thank you 🙏🏽
The fact that the landlord rented the apartment to you in that condition..they had better be giving you your deposit back! It's a great place just can't believe they didn't make sure it was ready for you. Sending all the positive vibes your way ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Laura ❤❤❤Love the apartment but first few weeks have been very bumpy. Sending you love and good vibes as well.
The landlord is 100% responsible for deep cleaning the apt, painting the walls, changing all batteries, bulbs, etc before the new tenant moves in. You should be able to get your security deposit back since you pretty much had to do all of those things on your own.
Thank you!!! They better do 😊. I have the photos and videos (documented everything) as receipts.
And she recorded the whole process with a witness present!
@@primrosed2338 Ashanti probably has all the voice memos of me complaining too LOL
Ashanti is DEFINITELY FRIEND GOALS!!!! Don't know too many friends who would actually help me do that.
She is amazing! Really grateful ♥️
Ashanti is a great friend!
Yes!! very grateful ❤❤❤
You’ll do fine, hon! I lived in NYC for 20 years, moved back to NJ and spent another 20 trying to crawl my way back to Manhattan. I’m here 2 years now, and am thankful every day. There’s no other place on earth like it. As for those cockroaches, caulk like crazy, put tape around the a/c and make sure all your sink drains are plugged tight at night. I do my dishes right away and haven ‘t seen one in months. And, I live on the ground floor, too!
Message me if you need anything!
Thank you so muchhh❤. Hope to get there soon! Even with all the issues, I feel so grateful to be here and experience the city ✨
I just can not believe that anyone would leave the apartment like that.
You have an amazing friend.
Thank you Kiona 🙏🏽
I am absolutely terrified of cockroaches. I would be gone from that flat, never to return. I hope you’re big free soon. BTW, Ashanti is amazing.
Ohh I was shaking and screaming every time I found them and sprayed degreaser like crazy to drown it 😢. Thank you 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽. YESSSSS Ashanti is amazing ❤
Hi Tisha, thanks for sharing an honest, realistic view of how it is moving to NYC.
It's not all aesthetic with city views......
As far as the cockroaches, make sure you keep up with your treatments. Also, I notice that someone suggested you use boric acid.
If you have an exterminator coming in to treat your unit, I don't suggest using boric acid because the two cancel each other out. ( An exterminator told me this when I moved into my first apartment)
Also, get some oil diffusers for the bedroom, bathroom, and living room space, then load them up with sage essentials oils. Sage keeps most pests away.
Consider smudging once a week as well, and get some eucalyptus for your shower head.
Pests don't like the smell of sage and eucalyptus so this should help, and it will also help your apartment smell amazing!
Once the caulking is finished, though, you should see less activity. It just won't happen overnight, so you gotta be diligent and never leave food out even if it's sealed.
Make sure your sink is BONE DRY since roaches are attracted to water.
Also, consider getting a dehumidifier for your bathroom so you won't have to open your window when showering. This will keep your bathroom from being humid and wet.
Hope this helps! 🙏🏿
Don't worry, it will get better, so positive thoughts
Also, make sure there are no gaps in your front door. If so, consider getting your door sealed. There are BUNCH of options on Amazon.
Also, I echo what everyone is saying on here, your landlord seems to be respectful and responsive, but he needs to give your deposit back or a rent break since you did all that deep cleaning!
@@Jhenenelouis1
Hi Jhenene,
THANK YOU SO MUCH for such a thoughtful & helpful response ❤Caulking and exterminators have helped! I will definitely look into the other recommendations. Love the idea of getting a dehumidifier for the bathroom. I haven't opened the windows and mainly keep the bathroom door closed (i found most of the big cockroaches in the bathroom) so there isn't much ventilation. Also I have to close the gaps in my main door. Super has been very helpful and responsive fixing all the issues because of which I haven't complained about the situation.
The good news is that you already cleaned up the hardest places to clean, especially under the refrigerator. It’s no wonder there are roaches considering that there were cans of cat food under the refrigerator. The glue traps will be very helpful, not only because they work but it will also give you an idea of how bad the problem is. I can definitely relate to what you are going through because I have been in the same situation. Good luck with everything! 🙏
Thank you so much Lenny 🙏 🙏🙏. Such a huge relief to all be done and finally start settling in. Those traps have been tremendously helpful.
Landlord is outrageous not cleaning up before u got there. Outrageous! I live in London and just moved 8th a new build flat and even the light cleaning u have to do along with the general stress of moving is sooo exhausting let alone what u have had to go through. So sorry but I’m really enjoying ur channel and videos.
Thank you so much ❤. It truly means alot. Positive side from all these issues is finding you guys!! I am so grateful for the support and our community. The whole apartment situation is unbelievable!!! I was not expecting this at all but I am excited to start this new chapter.
Ashanti is a real one. You are very lucky to have a friend like that❤❤
Grateful for our friendship ❤❤❤
We all need an Ashanti in our lives! Love your channel. I'm 20 years older than you and dream of moving to the city.
Thank you so much. Friendship like this is hard to find.. so grateful ❤. I hope it becomes a reality ✨✨✨
I just cant get over how much cleaning you had to do before you could even move in. Im so glad you got to your new apt. I had missed some of these earlier ones. I really enjoy you sharing your times with all of us. Take care❤ love your dog..hes so cute and playful.
Wow, you have a great in Ashanti; she helped deep clean what should have been cleaned before you moved in.
Grateful for our friendship ❤ she offered to help even without me asking. Initially I thought it would be too much and I said it’s ok I can manage it on my own and then she offered again (she knew what was happening) 😭
This takes me back to when I first moved to nyc also. Good friends are invaluable. Congrats to your new adventure!
Thank you so much!! Excited for this new chapter of my life ❤
@@TishaShrestha you made it happen. Pure will power and elbow grease. I’m sure your channel will blow up once you start vlogging more nyc adventures
Thank you so much 😭😭😭. I’m so grateful for all the support. I was not expecting this at all when I started vlogging & editing this series. It truly means a lot! Have been creating videos for years and to get to this point it has taken a while ❤
Those big ones are referred to as waterbugs in NYC. They come up the pipes. I think they actually live outside the building, down by the sewers probably. The advice below about caulking and closing the drains at night is correct. I lived in an apartment that would get them in hot, muggy weather. i didn't like to close the drains, thinking, what if a pipe bursts? So, I just covered the drains with plastic cups. A dark color cup is probably best. I think seeing light attracts them.
Thank you for the recommendation 🙏🏽
Check your pipes for gaps in the wall under both sinks and spray outside your front door and on and around your window sills with surface spray
Thank you for the recommendation 🙏🏽
“That which does not kill you only makes you stronger.” Tisha, you must be one strong woman! So nice to have all the deep cleaning done I imagine and yay for Ashanti 👏👏👏👏👏 Looking forward to the next video on your move to NYC journey!
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!! it truly means a lot ❤❤❤
What a great friend! Not many people would willingly help, especially with the frig and stove! You are a lucky girl! Great job ladies! You should get at least a half month off your rent for all that work you did!
It’s coming along! So happy for you!
Thank you Camille ❤. Ashanti came to help even without me asking. Very grateful to find friendship where we help and uplift each other. Since the super has been very helpful and I didn’t want to deal with the hassle of reaching out to the management, I haven’t asked for my rent deduction but if the issues persists I’ll definitely reach out.
What a wonderful friend, to help you with such a fun, lighthearted attitude! I was embarrassed thinking about my fridge even as I was laughing....so...I just went and cleaned under it! I found SIX cat toys and two blueberries. I guess it could've been worse lol! I agree with everyone else that the landlord should give you your deposit back. I was afraid cockroaches would show up because the place was so dirty. They love that. I'm sure you will be okay but from personal experience, what the other commenters said--cover your drains at night, all of them. And also be very stringent about keeping all food that isn't in the fridge well-sealed--preferably in glass jars. I still think it's a great apartment! Good luck!
Thank you so much for the recommendation & support♥️. Even though it was so much cleaning, we had a fun evening. We got bubble tea & tacos after that :). This start was very bumpy but I still really like the apartment. What you found under the fridge is nothing.. it’s really clean.
God bless you. I'm so sorry you had to do all this nasty cleaning. The apt is going to be wonderful though! You can do it!
THANK YOI SO MUCH ❤😭. Excited to start decorating it ✨
@@KactusKM yeah I was so happy to be done and when I found those big ones I just lost it 😢. Thank you so much ❤
OMG I feel you! I just found a HUGE one in my bathroom yesterday! And it's the whole ..being trapped in a very small space with a bug that can FLY if he wants too....SCARY! I was able to get out and then came.back with targeted bug spray and hit all the corners of the vanity and floors. I put a small blanket up against the bathroom door so he couldn't get out. Came back this morning and found him dead. I'm still trying to figure HOW it got in there cuz this is the 2nd time in a year. There's no big gaps that I can see in there. I just bought this house 3 yrs ago
Oh no!!!! Flying ones are scary!!! I am so sorry! Exterminators have been here twice and super is helping to close the gaps. Exterminator was telling me that it doesn't need to be a big gap...just a small one is enough for them to enter. Those sticky traps come in very handy! I hope it doesn't come back and situation for both us gets better ❤
They can also crawl up through pipes in the bathroom, had that happen to us in our trailer in the winter and the summer here in Louisiana… if you don’t know what the weather is like here it is extremely muggy and humid and so hot
@@artgirlerina1797 oh wow 😭😭😭 bathroom is where I found majority of it. Did the drain cover help?
After the exterminator comes,get yourself some boric acid. Mix equal parts of boric acid, icing sugar and flour in some small open containers ( one tablespoon each) and put them by the pipes under your sink and anywhere else safe from your pet. The roaches will eat it and it will kill them.
Thank you for the recommendation 🙏🏽
Thank you for being honest! Also, you have a great landlord, it seems, and you are very responsible.
I tried my best to document the process as authentically i can ❤. Super is very responsive and helpful!
I love your vlogs! So glad they were recommended to me. I feel like we are on this journey together lol 😂 but also the landlord should have had the apt ready especially since no one lived there for a while. That's unacceptable. But you are handling it so strong! ❤ you are amazing!
Thank you so much!!! This means so much to me ❤ ❤ ❤.Things have been tough bit it's good to know we are in this together.
the raid traps are sooooo good. I lived in a roach infested apt in Harlem and it got rid of them
I got those too. I have placed it around the windows, loft, bathroom and top closet 🤞🏽
How kind your friend was to help you. We live in South Carolina and have those big palmetto bugs here during the summer and I hate it. Sitting on the patio during the summer is horrible.
Very grateful ❤❤❤
Ughhhh!! feeling is mutual....I had nightmares for few days after seeing those big ones!!
You have such a great friend & considering all the cleaning you had to do & now bugs omg you are definitely taking everything in stride … idk if i could do it but you seem to be enjoying your new space nonetheless!
Thank you 💖. Couldn't have done it without my friends. If Ashanti hadn't helped, it would have taken forever. So grateful!!
Hey! 😊 Get yourself an O Cedar mop...they are THE BEST! They are at Target. Your floors will be sparkling clean...way more cost effective than a Swifter...and, you can use your own cleaning product. For wood floors, Method has a great wood floor cleaning concentrate...tiny bit w hot water..not a bit of dirt will be left!
Hey Ann! Thank you for the recommendation 🙏🏽
New vid omg! Hope you’re well Tisha 🥰
Thank you !!! I hope you are doing well ❤❤❤
Oh, I would have moved out once I saw the cockroach. 🤣 That’s were I draw the line. I hate bugs and now dust. My current apartment is a dust magnet.
LOL! I am still traumatized 😭
Watch you puppy around the sticky traps! We use them in our house, spiders. Our Yorkie got one of the flat kind stuck to her foot! We went to the kind like you have & our Shih tzu got one stuck on her face! She was being nosey in my closet.
Oh no!!!! I am so sorry. Thank you for the heads up ❤
They should be ashamed, for the amount they charge for apartment in New York, the placed should have completely move in ready, with a small amount of cleaning on your part. Get your deposit back.
This experience has been insane. Thank you 🙏🏽
I love your videos !
Thank you so much 💗💗💗
Your doing good! Love ur vids! ❤ from ohio
Thank you so much ❤❤❤
Wow!Pleasecome clean my house in Calif!!!!!
We did good!!
Very nice but i would definitely buy portable steamer for floors you can steam sterilize everything those floors are probably still dirty after all cleaning you have done you can use different oils mix with water spray around windows and out side front door under both sinks clove oil peppermint lemongrass or cinnamon oil
great vlog I hate bugs your dog is so cute
Thank you❤
That's something. The tenant has to deep clean the apartment before moving in? Where are the landlords?
I have never faced this before...a very memorable experience :). Super has been very helpful and responsive with all the issues
Looks like you’re on top of the cockroach problem and they should be gone forever ❤❤
Thank you ❤❤❤ Hoping I don’t see them again!
The apartment was supposed to be cleaned before you move in right? Then why it’s not?!!!! You should have said something
Initially, I wasnt sure if this is the NYC norm. Since the super has been very helpful and responsive, I didn't make a fuss out of it.
They should have cleaned the place..and if the fridge and stove is disgusting request one..nasty..how dare them...not clean up...good vibes too you...better too come..it's a start...
Thank you so much! Excited for this new chapter of my life ♥
You have to get Advion for bugs.
Exterminator recently placed it in my kitchen cabinets and bathroom. Hopefully it works out 🤞
Keep your drains in your sinks covered
Thank you 🙏🏽
Sadly, but big roaches are water bugs, they cone from the sewer to the tub, to the toilet, disgusting I know, but it's NYC. I wonder why people love NYC so much?
How expensive is the rent
It is 2350
theres way more roaches hidden in the neighboring apartments
Shame on that landlord--should have had a professional cleaning team for that rent!
Lesson learnt for next time! Before I actually move, I will set aside few days for deep cleaning.
Girl you’re in for a long, tough ride with all these roaches that also can fly 😭😭 I hope you find a better place one day
What!!!! they fly 😮. Thankfully none of them have tried it. I would have lost it! Thank you ❤
lol if you didn't have a pet or had never had one I would not be surprised by your reaction to cat food cans and cat toys under the fridge but you sounded like it was the worst thing ever! cats play with cans and shove them under things, so do dogs you might want to put a guard of sorts under the fridge so those things can't get under there. :) still it was funny to hear your reactions!
I've never heard of a NYC apartment that didn't have roaches but then i dont live there. when you live in a building with other people you're going to have bugs the best thing is to keep roach baits in places out of sight to most, just to be safe! ( i live out in the woods and have all my life, wood roaches are huge and disgusting and i feel dirty when i see one too but i do see them occasionally. yuck!)
If you have time, watch a show called "Joe's Apartment" hopefully its available on youtube and then tell us you have a roach problem hehehehe it was a comedy but seriously he had a problem!
You're doing great and i wish i had a friend like yours she's awesome!
It's not normal to have cans under the fridge in an apartment that is supposed to be cleaned for a new tenant. Also not normal to have that in your current home. And even if you live with a cat, like I do, you should never let dirty stuff accumulate like that anywhere in your home. That's what hygiene habits and a cleaning routine are for.
Too soon u ll notice mice n rats. Welcome to Manhattan 😀
LOL !! thanks :)
Ashanti is a great friend!
We love her ♥️
