I have misplaced my owner's manual and can't figure out how to turn off the cascading water flow! It's a Cameo model, if anyone is familiar with it I would really appreciate it.

I am thinking about buying one, but i know it doesnt take too long for our upright vaccuum to become full (lots of dog fur). I live in a one bedroom studio apt with my wife and our two medium sized dogs. Due to the constant temperature changes from Texas heat to apt AC or Texas freeze to apt warmth they are always shedding and i would like to have the thing just vaccuum while i am at work since I really dont have time between school, a 40hr job, and homework to vaccuum. My main concern is that the vaccuum would get full after a few minutes and become useless until emptied. Does anyone know the how much it can hold, how strong is the suction, which model to purchase, and where i can see a demonstration.

Hello,

We've had a mouse infestation for a little while (which means it's only bigger now!! GaargH!!) I only do humane cos I can't kill the cute little critters for just wanting a place to stay... (and with my small children dropping crumbs and hiding food down the side of the couch PLUS the dog food, I'm sure I live in mouse-y paradise!! My house is probably known as the Tahiti of Mouse-dom!) Anyway - I want a humane trap that will catch more than one mouse at once so that I'm actually making headway with the critters!! Otherwise all I'm doing is battling against their breeding program! =)

Thanks all for your help...!

Well the lights dont, but again this morning when I turned the kitchen lights on, (Halogen Spots) they tripped the fuse. Also the Lounge lights go off at the same time so presume they are on the same circuit? My Fuses are those big fat brown things that you pull out, unscrew and they have a big round fuse in.

Same thing happened about 2 months ago and I replaced that particular fuse with one that has a "on/off" switch.

Could my ex husband have rigged the house to finish me off? lol!

Can anyone tell wher to buy equipment to isolate a small area withing my lviing room to carry out drywall repair. As far as I remember there used to be some extendable metal piles which spring fit between floor and cieling and one can somehow cling plastic sheeting between them at their perimeter thereby making a small cabin inside which you can make all mess, gather dust from draywall snaing etc provided you also take care to islate the floor and seal the area properly with tape or something. Can u pl tell me what they are called and if possible a link where I can buy them. Does Home Depot or Lowes carry them ?

I have hardwood floors in 3 rooms of my home, they appear to be finished, although not slick or shiny how do i make them this way without staining them. They have a very thin coat of finish, but they feel rough to the bare foot touch like sand paper, and if you walk on them in bare socks you sort of stick like walking on bare wood, are they unfinished? How do I clean them, can I just use Murpyhs Oil Soap and a sponge mop to clean. I want to maintain the color they are now, what is the cheapest and safest way to make them shine and smoother?

I would like to reseed my lawn but I live next to a creek that runs into a lake down the street. Does anyone know of a weed killer that is safe for the envioronment? Also, would it make any sense to seed my lawn without killing the weeds first?
