I want to start some container gardens on my patio. I live in Northern IL, and its just starting to be warm out. Its usually about 55-65 degrees. When can I plant them? I want to do veggies like peppers, cucumber, tomatoes, spinach and cilantro.

A "handyman" who painted the metal railing on my porch used spray paint and failed to mask the area where the metalwork meets the brick of the house. While the splattered area is small, it is unsightly as the color used was black.

I have a metal towel bar on my bathroom wall and the tiny little screws that hold the end brackets to the other brackets that were anchored into the wall are stripped. It's not possible to unscrew them. Aside from ripping huge holes in the wall by just ripping the bar down, is there another less damaging way to get the bar off?

Thanks!

I have an exterior floor drain and a downspout that are connected to the same pipe. The water from both these sources runs into one pipe, and then the underground stormwater system. How do I find out what is the maximum amount of rain water that one pipe can take at a time?

I'm using paint specially designed for high moisture areas such as bathrooms. Should I use the same paint for the walls and celing?

Thanks!

I dyed my hair, and a couple of small, but noticable sploges went on the floor unnoticed.
The floor is vinyl.
I've tried, milk, methelated spirit, nail varnish remover, white spirit, cillit bang, shampoo, conditioner, a thing called 'spotless' Fairy power spray, Wd-40.
I've hit my head on the sink. And I've had enough. What will remove this stupid stain.

It is cool in the morning. So, I want to draw fresh air into the home; I usually open windows, but pollen comes in at the same time. Is there any product that allows only fresh air to come in which can be installed in windows?

I have a long chain link fence and I would like to plant something to block the view of my neighbor's yard. Any suggestions? I would prefer a vine of some sort to bushes but what are the best (and most cost effective) options?

I have a king size waterbed, but my husband hurt his back and can't sleep on it anymore. I have purchased a regular mattress for it; however, I can't seem to get all of the water out of the old one. Once I get it all out, how do I dispose of it? It's really heavy.

The little blighters are eating up my plants!

Putting a Fence up is not really an option, Is there some kind of pellets / drops, or repellant's that you have tried??

And for the funny people out there, No Guns!!
