Our fair motorcycle maiden, ngdawg, has sound advice again. A kinder, gentler approach is likely to be the best way to get their attention. The only thing that I would add is to start this dialogue with them absolutely as soon as possible. The longer you wait, the more likely it is that things will go from bad to worse and when they become intolerable, it is much more likely that tempers will flair. You'll be speaking, or shouting, from an emotionally fraught position, rather than the calm, collected approach that might actually get them to pay attention and make some constructive changes.
Also as someone else mentioned, if they are smokers or drinkers, those are two very expensive habits that they can cut out right the hell now.
