She spilled cold water on it yesterday and it already bled a little onto the white. Is there a special way I have to wash it?

I have 6 douglas fir trees on my mid-eastern, New York State, USA land. The past 8 months the needles are turning bronze and falling off leaving bare spots. One tree appears mostly dead, others are heading that way. I read about moths causing this in the Pacific NW USA. Is that the likely culprit here in the NE? Suggestions on finding help and/or a caring, reasonably priced arborist before I lose all my firs and my natural privacy fence? Thank you very much.

Mike

What is the possibilities. I just dread loading this thing up on a truck to take it to be fixed. Its about 10 yrs old. Should I just trash it? I bought it at a garage sell 2 yrs ago and it hasnt ran since the end of the 1st summer we bought it.

I recently purchased a clematis that I planted among my other clematis-not too close, sunny spot with mulched roots, the others are doing fine but this plant looks very wilted- is this normal? I just planted it three days ago and watered it thoroughly. What else should I do?

I want to say it is almost like a chrysanthemum. The leaves are kind of feathery, not an actual leaf. Grows mound-shape about 6 - 8 inches tall. When the flower is spent it leaves a seedhead that if you rub it, the seeds loosen up and scatter. It doesn't like transplanting as it has a main tap root (not fine roots)... I believe I bought a tray of these at Home Depot years ago and have performed beautifully in my garden but now I must come up with the name. I'll check with HD but thought if you knew you could save me the trip. Thanks in advance, you guys are an invaluable resource :)

The fence post has been shifted by tree roots over the last couple of years. I just want to reposition it easily without removing it.

My dishwasher racks plastic coating has worn away from use, and the metal has been exposed to the water and detergent causing rust on key points where my dishes,pots and pans go. Also on the tops of the prongs where the cups and glasses go. I know you can buy those little nubby things to go over the prongs, but what can I do about the rack where the dish sits? Is there a special paint I can put on it to cover the rust? Where do they sell that?

Buying a new dishwasher is out of the question. Also I have been washing dishes by hand, which increases time and water consumption.

After burning a fragranced candle in its small glass container, I always have a residue of wax.

I've tried scraping it off, without success.

What is the easiest and safest way to remove every trace of wax?

My glass containers are very delicate and I would like to save them .
