I just drained the pump and there was a grayish substance that came out. It looked like oil and water mixed.

Burning the yard off is not an option, neither is tilling the entire yard, before everyone starts offering that advice. Is there another way to get rid of the stickers that are no longer on the plants. Over time, they die off and fall off the plants, making herbacides pointless. They are still there. How can i get rid of the ones that have already fallen? they are all over our yard.

The commodes will flush out waste, but don't completely flush the water. If we flush more than one commode within 30 minutes of each other one will likely over flow without flushing waste. The ground outside is NOT saturated. The septic tank was emptied about 3 months ago. The kitchen sink and dishwasher do NOT back up. The commodes gurgle when we shower. The shower water often stands and goes down very slow. Any ideas? Need to know anything else just ask.

I only had 2 but now I've got 5, 3 babies and 2 adults. I don't live near any body of water and my garden can be quite dry. How do they get there, surely they can't cross the road? Where does the frog spawn get laid?
