I have hundreds of pavement ants in my garden!
They're a real trouble every summer!
Is there a way of getting rid of them quickly without any professional products?

Can someone please help me!

My father bought what he thought was a horseradish. The leaves look right but the flowers are deep yellow, almost daisylike and on very long stems. As far as I know all varieties of horseradish have small white flowers, so... Any ideas on what it actually is? Thanks. (No image, camera isn't working.)

If it were raining constantly and the wind was blowing all the crap off of the street into your garden, and the kids next door keep knocking on the door for their ball back from one of your flower pot which meant you having to keep going out there.....would it be so nice then......x.

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows any great ideas on how to make a ceiling look like it has beams in it, but not actually put up those huge, heavy beams.

I want to put it on an existing ceiling, so it isn't like they can actually be built in. Besides, I don't want something so heavy hanging up there when it isn't built in.

So, how can I do it? I would prefer a way that is relatively low cost and that could possibly be done myself, but I could get someone to help me if I needed more than 2 hands.

Thank you and I will look forward to finding out what information there is on this.

My neighbor had a garage addition added to his home, it was attached the home in an "L" shaped corner where the home exists. Since the garage sat inside the "L" he used bolts and bolted a large board to the existing home, then the trusses on the inside of this "L" portion were added. Well this side of the home already was supporting two full stories. The Garage added more, for an already under built corner support. Well, my neighbor was sitting in his home last night and starting hearing some crackling sounds, as he went out to investigate, you guessed it, the corner wall, garage roof, and about 1/4 of his home caved in. It was bad.

The builder said he is not responsible since it was 2 years ago he built it and the warranty was only 1 year. So is this an insurance claim or what? Is the builder liable even though the warranty expired, or is my neighbor screwed? I would guess there is $100 K in damages.

They have the advantage of not needind a dryer vent and use 110 voltage. And of course take up half the space of a washing machine & dryer. Anybody use one?

I have a brass/gold colored sink fixture and am trying to find shower fixtures and shower doors that match and am having no luck at Lowe's or Home Depot. The only seem to have silver and nickel. I have found some brass items online but they are over half the price of the same thing in the other colors. Why the high price as well?
