I read recent in a newspaper article by Justin & Colin that a new product would cover woodchip wallpaper. Has anyone used this and was it worth it?

to kill it, but apart from the fact my daughter and I now refuse to go in the room, I really dont want it there from a hygiene point of view. My husband has said he will try it my way until Sunday and then he gets to put the poison and inhumane traps down. I have put a humane trap down but unfortunatley the mouse is far too clever and wont go near it. Anyone got any tried and tested ideas. Also can mice jump if so how high, and I know they can climb on material things like curtains etc but could they climb up a video box. Strange question I know but I have built a wall of video boxes around the tv stand to try and box it in, but think I may be wasting my time!!! Thanks for any help.

We are getting ready to put down new carpet. The dogs ruined our carpet, but now are house trained. Is there something we can put between the carpet and padding? Or is there special padding we can put down?In case of accidents. We are hoping with the new carpet they will no longer mess on it? What do you think?
Thank-You,
Vanora

I took my old coffeemaker back yesterday because it was making that kind of popping noise and I bought a different one. This one is doing the same thing and just as bad. If its not the coffeemaker could it be something to do with the wall plug-in?

We recently purchased an older home (built 1941) and there are several built in cabinets and a fireplace made of oak. The furniture came with the home, is antique and is the same color of the cabinets and the fireplace. It's an orange-ish looking wood and is hard to decorate around. I really do prefer the deeper, darker wood colors (so does my husband). Can I sand and restain the wood darker without worrying about ruining the wood? It's so old.

In front of the garage, there are two joints where the pieces just barely reach each other. Also, there's a little bit that's caroded so water can drip out. I was thinking brown (the gutters are brown) plastic (electrical) tape for a temporary fix 'cause I haven't got the money right now to do it correctly. Any other ideas for quick cheap fixes to my gutters?
