I've got a hornets nest in my back yard about the size of my head. The hornet spray I bought directs me to spray the hole, which is usually on the bottom. Well...in order to do that, I'd have to sit right underneath it, as it is only at waist level, hanging from a bush.

No thanks.

Anyone have any suggestions? My only vantage point puts me in their kill zone.

We have a very rough looking tile floor in our bathroom, it's cracked in several places. We'd like to lay laminate tiles over the tile. 1) is this possible (we're not worried about taking it up to get to the tile) 2) how should we best prepare the ceramic tile to lay the laminate?

thank you!

I live in S. CA and have quite a huge banana tree which has now for the second year fruits. Last year I cut off the bananas while they were still green and thought they would ripen anyway, but they tasted horrible! When is the best time to cut of the fruits?

if so how? do i turn off the water? should i flush it? i have two toilets that have always been sensitive but it seems they are both backing up more frequently. does that mean its further down the line and i should just call a plumber? any advice to help save me money is appreciated, as i am totally ignorant of plumbing stuff and don't want to be taken advantage of.

I am drywalling the ceiling in my basement.
Should I rerun the electrical to eliminate junction boxes and the cut line?
Do I need access to the juncion boxes? Is this necessary?
thanks.

smells throughout house, got the basement carpet shampooed, set up air fresheners and plug in ones too all to no avail, also had a professional carpet drier fan running, though the smell remains.

There's a lake behind my parent's house and the back portion of the lawn slopes down into it. My father has trouble reaching the farthest part of the grass by the water. What kind of lawn mower should he use?

We are moving into a house and the owners painted the walls a pretty rust color, but I'm not sure what colors go with it.

-- I'll lose the kitchen appliances, the bedrooms, and the air conditioning; but I'll still have power in the bathrooms, and the washer/dryer work. The circuit breaker box is not warm and none of the breakers are tripped. If I start the dryer, the rest of the power comes back on. What do you think?

curled up. How can I stop that and make it stay flat like when I bought it? Does it have to do with the way I'm washing/drying it?

I have central heating radiators. I had my boiler worked on and they worked good the first day. Now they are just cold and don't do anything. All the pipes are cold. They have 2 valves on them. I have bled the system multiple times and still nothing. Now that it is going to be getting cold soon, I need them to be working. If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.

What do you like about the ones you go back to?
Did you go there with your parents as a kid?
What would make you never go back?
Can a commercial make you try a new garden center, what would?

Am I cheating, asking more than one question, even though they're related?
