This year I have a ton of pine needles, where as last year I had a ton of pine cones. Do these trees cycle yearly like this?

We recently had two trees cut down in the backyard: one cherry, one locust. Can I use this wood in our fireplace this year or do I need to wait for the wood to dry out? What would happen if I used the wood this year?

What can I do to get rid of them? I realize that I tore the vines down too late & the seed pods broke & "re-planted" seeds everywhere. Each summer as the plants started to emerge I'd pluck them as fast as I could, but there was just too many! I don't want this problem next year. They grew over my lilac bush, my tomato plants , other flowers.....

How Do You Like Your Bedroom Trim...Semi-Gloss Or Satin Enamel?

The Flat Enamel is Behr's newest sheen--sandwiched between the flat and the eggshell. The walls are not perfect, but it is a white, medium traffic room.

I think it maybe something like woodworm. There are little piles of dust. I have used Dursban, but I don't know if this is the best thing. Has anyone got any suggestions?

I have a peculiar central heating problem. Ever since turning up the thermostat valve on my bathroom radiator, the boiler kicks in and heats it up, even if both the central heating and hot water are off at the timer switch.

Can anyone suggest a possible reason for this? Is this normal? I have never had this happen in any other place I have lived.

Thanks for your help!

I just bought a house and the septic tank backflowed into the basement. When I had it pumped, I was informed that it had not been pumped in at least 15 years - closer to 20. I was also told that legally, the tank has to be pumped before you can close on a house.

Is this true?
Is the realstate or previous owner responsible for cost?
Are there any links that you can give to help me?

PS - I live in Tenneessee

Thank You!

I checked everywhere & can't figure out where they are coming from. They are primarily in the kitchen, bath & a few in the basement. No fruit/veggies sitting out. Do I have to do a " bug bomb " ? Thanks!

Thanks!

I can't see any blockages, there's nothing in the drum, it fills from the normal water supply and it can't just be my drains as my parents smells like it too and they live 10 miles away. Perhaps it's genetic!
