Has anyone tried to Febreze plug in air freshener? If so does it work? I have tried glade, wisp, oust and even the thing that sprays from the wall every 8 minutes. Nothing permeates the scent through the room longer than a second. Any suggestions? Also I have tried yankee candles (sweet tarts) don't work either. Help

I know it will be hard to tell from what I am about to describe, but if you could tell me the name of this bug/pest/insect, and maybe suggest a good way to get rid of them, I'd appreciate that.
Here's the description: It's tiny (as tiny as a very sharp pencil tip), it's dark (almost black), crawls and there were a lot of them in an area (maybe around 4 or 5 per square inch area). I found them on 1st floor (a hardwood floor) at the corner of the house inside. My wife has been wiping them out over 10 times a day and now there are only a few that we notice, but they still show up and I want to get rid of them and I'd like to know their name first...

I took a picture of it, but it wasn't very helpful, so just describing it here.

It is 6ft high trunk about 5/8in dia and only has 2 limbs coming off top about 6in long with new growth and blooms. I love this tree but i want to know what I can do to help it become the tree i know it can become. Please help me.

The name of the pattern is 'Mayfair'. The pattern is red roses and yellow carnations around the very edges with a red line on the rim. The service says 'made in Staffordshire, England' on the reverse.

How can you tell when a flower has "outgrown" its pot and needs to be put in a larger one. Also, how exactly do you do it?

Even if I put a fence around it the dog will not leave it alone. If it were up to me I would get rid of the dog, but it is my daughters and she would get upset.

My old disposal had a key that you put in the bottom and turn it to free the spinning blades when they were stuck. I can't find that on this one. How am I supposed to clear a jam? It is stuck but I don't see any bottle cap or anything in there...

I found out that my lawnmower takes SAE 30 oil. Would it matter if the SAE 30 oil was for an automobile; for instance: if I were to get the oil from a auto part store would it matter if I were getting the oil for a lawnmower?
