I live in Texas and out side my house is this plant that just grows. I have noticed that when we get lots of rain it grows like wild fire! It looks like a Mimosa Tree, but it doesn't have any pink blooms. I have seen several others around the neighborhood but some have blooms and others don't. Does Mimosa grow really fast and tall? The leaves are almost like palm trees. The apartment complex cuts them back every year down to the ground but they always grow back really big by the Fall. In the Fall the leaves turn brown and fall off and your just left with bare branches.

Thanks!

Having some cement work around my house. Contractor warned there would possibly be a surcharge added to my estimated cost of about $300. Final bill at completion of cement work was about $900. Am I being swindled?

I have a front railed in porch & want to build in one side & part of the front. Then build a wall from my house out across the porch & connect it to the front wall w/a door opening outside. It will not open into my home. It will use the porch roof & I'll reenforce the porch floor. No electic, no pluming. Ican't find any place on the web that tells if this requiers a pertmit or regulations for Shawnee County, Topeka, KS. I know I can call Mon. but want to know more right now. A gerneral Idea of ther amount a permit will cost if so would be nice also. It's only about a 7'X 5' & has no windows. If onyone knows where on the web I can find out or knows the answers, I would be grateful.

Unionize the people by vote and get the incumbents out of office and make it known if you fail in the two years you are there you will get the boot with no benefits

We all have jobs and limited benefits we deserve the same as the people with lobbists

All the websites show you hang a stick of incense with a keyring inside a tall bottle(wine) and burn it and the smoke will come out of the bottle...I tried it and it didnt work..the smoke never came out and the incense went out.

I just planted carrots, cantaloup,watermelon,strawberries, and oregon snow peas. I have them in raised beds. I can see bug holes in the melon dirt mounds! There are earwigs, ants of all different breeds, spiders,and lord only knows what some of the other bugs are.
My beds are surrounded with river rock, the bugs crawl under the rocks and makes nests in the mulch and dirt underneath.
What can I do to kill these bugs before they kill my garden???!!!???
(I also have pets, so it needs to be non-toxic)
