Yesterday while cooking I set off the smoke detector, no I did not burn anything. They go off when I cook over a high heat. And yesterday once they started going off they would not stop. I ended up having to disconnect them all (they are hard wired with an interconnect) and I replaced them this morning. Aaaaaaaand let me tell you, I had a sleepless night last night knowing there were no detectors installed.

I put thing like this in a box labelled “I don’t know how to recycle this”, then I put that box in the corner of the least-used room in the house, where I won’t see it often.
Exactly, that is a “next of kin” kinda problem
