Home & Garden - 18 July 2006

After two wipes we have to flush (it has nothing to do with the amount of paper used) or else the toilet will clog. I've had a plumber here and he used a snake, but there's no change.

Any other suggestions?

I have an old fridge and an even older stove. They are sitting near eachother kind of like an "L" but there is a 12 to 14 inch space between the two. Anyway. If you touch the fridge AND the stove at the same time you get the piss shocked out of you. And it's a massive current because it even made me scream "oww" and my arm went numb for hours. Well my almost 2 year old just touched the two at the same time and shocked herself pretty good. I'm getting tired of this. My kitchen is VERY small so there is no way I can move the two so they are in different areas. My questions are why is it doing this and what can I do to fix it?

I have these annoying plants in my backyard along the fence and beside the garage. They grow like 12 feet tall and have purple berries on them. My mother-in-law said they are called poke plants. Anyone heard of them? I've cut them down several times and even poured bleach on them. How do I kill them?!

It's a warping of the board... right? I just don't know which goes to the short side of the board and which to the wide side.

There are bee's gathering around the house, slowly building a bee hive in a corner outside of the garage door. What is the best and most effective way to get rid of the hive so the bees don't come back? Or what's the best way to prevent bees from starting the hives in the first place?

I had an amaryllis bulb it would sprout stems but it never bloomed. A florist told me to give it partial sunlight and to water it 3 times a week. He also told me that some amaryllis bulbs were bred to bloom in the Spring and some in the Summer. I need to know more about the care and maintenance of these bulbs.

Ok folks. Thanks all for the previous advice you've given.
I spoke to the city inspector. He said that I could do it myself providing I passed a test, then he would come to inspect the work.

Considering I just got a $1500 !!!! quote for the work, I think this will be the way to go. (I priced out the stuff at HD (under $250))

Can someone post or point me to the NEC regulations pertaining to 240V outdoor hot tub wiring?

Thanks!

The windows were removed when we replaced the shingles around them and in the process the windows got scratched. I was thinking something like auto glass companies use to get chips out of the windshields.

would you hammer in the evening? All over this land?
Personally I'd just use it to knock a nail in or something.

I planted a trumpet vine 5 years ago and this year it's really starting to take off. Beautiful orange blooms! I love it. But I was doing some research about pruning and such and now discover that it's a very difficult to control vine. Should I dig it up? I'm scared it will take over my yard. Should have spent some time researching.

Blue Atlas Cedar is about 6 1/2 feet tall. Needles are turning yellow and falling off. Have noticed a small limb (3 inches) has no needles on it now. It is planted on the south side of our house and receives about 6 hours of sun per day. It is planted in a flower bed. Can I put slow release fertilizer on it now or should I wait?
