we have limited space to work with but need another bath. We have a room that is built on a slab foundation and would like to install the smallest bath that we can. Is there a stool that does not have to have a drop from the bottom? Do they make one that goes through the wall? Our adjoining room has a crawl spacel, 3 blocks high.

I have a two car garage and i am in the process of insulating it. I am using r13 wall insulation for the walls and I am going to use 3/4 or 1 inch polystyrene with firing strips(for easy removal) for the ceiling. I have natural gas in my home but I would have to dig a trench from the house to the garage. I was hoping to go with one of the ventless wall heaters but I just dont know. I can get a 100 pound propane tank filled for 75 dollars but I dont know how long that would heat it either. This is a repost because the first one that I did I did not give enough info. I am sorry for that. That was my first question. Now that I know what I need to do it wont happen again(hopefully). Thanks in advance

I have a banana tree that has grown fruit this year. They are all green now, the top ones bigger than the bottom. I understand that they will begin to ripen once I cut them down. But if I cut them down too soon, they will be starchy rather than sweet. How do I know when I should harvest them?

So if I have mould on my wall and it doesn't come off easily when I scrub, and I apply something to kill it, such as tea tree oil, vinegar, bleach, dettol or whatver, when it is 'dead' what happens? Does it dissapear, or will it simply be easy go scrub away. How long does it take to die?

I just moved my bed out from the wall and behind it the wall is wet and covered with furry black and white mould. THe carpet is affected too, and the mould is starting to creep past the bed which is what caused me to look behind there. I am horrified as I have been sleeping right next to this for god knows how long.
What am I supposed to do?
FYI: The wall affected is an outside wall, I have looked on the outside there is no obvious signs of moisture, the wall is dry and there are no drains near that section of wall. I do not have mould anywhere else. I only have single glazing.
