Home & Garden - 14 August 2006

Hello,

This question is regarding house central AC. We don't have any air (either cold or hot) from the vents when the AC is on. All these vents connect to one pipe. I'm wondering if one brower controls one pipe or the whole unit? Anybody have any idea what could be the problem?

Thanks in advance.

Im in the process of painting a new construction house. Can not afford the $4500 labor cost that I was quoted. Wondering which brand of paint will be best to use. American Tradition, Olympic, Behr or Glidden. I'm planning on using a Wagner Paint Crew as much as possible.

Thanks

Can you tell me where to get garden gnome repellent?? My neighbors yard is over run with them. I don't want those little tyrants coming over into my yard so I was wondering what would keep them away. Any suggestions. Also...she has a flock of pink flamingos that say all year round. How do they live through the winter on mere bird food??

This is for next season, but I was wondering in advance, what type of flowers can I plant which can last basically from May/June, till about Sept/Oct. in bloom. A type of flower which is great for a novice, just learning how to garden, would be best!

Thanks!

At the end of the day, I like to vacumn my family's great room. We have 17 month old twins, so it gets a little crumby in there. My husband told me this wears out the carpet faster? I dont go over it for very long...just a quick vacumn every night. Thanks.

I recently found a set of stacking bowls in primary colors. The condition is not too bad but is there a way to refresh the paint with a polish or wax and still keep the bowls from being toxic?

This may sound stupid, but the toilet in my apartment always has too much water in it, and I think there is supposed to be a way to change how much water is in it, but I don't know how! Can anyone help me figure out to make it have less water in the bowl all the time?

There's no mosquitos. I was only there a few minutes picking some beens and snow peas but now my ankles and arms are so itchy.

HI all,
Is the South-central region of USA (Texas panhandle) suffering through a TIC infestation (due to the drought) this year?
%My Great Dane is picking up more TICS from outside so I am getting worried.
How, besides adding BUG KILLER to the yard and dousing him with Paramite chemicals can I try to protect him from this (possibly dangerous) insect?
How (what different?) groundcover can I place on the caliche that will not absorb the summertime heat that will not require me to use more water? - REMEMBER, we are going through a drought! =:-o

I've been scouring the Internet looking for a small square table lamp with a spinning inside that casts pretty designs on the walls as it turns. The only one I could find has butterflies - which is fine, but I was hoping for more selection.
