I own (mortgaged) a middle terraced 3 bed house in South East England built in the 50's. I have recently been informed that the wiring is not safe and have asked three different contractors to give me a quote for a full re-wire. Does anyone know if there are grants available for this as I already have huge debts and don't have the extra funds available.

My plant has been thriving in soil for about 2 years now. All of a sudden all of the bottom leaves have turned yellow! Someone please tell me why this happened, and what I can do to save it. It has always been in the same location.

I have a green pepper plant. This is the second time it's made an actual pepper. The first one was green and fine. This one is green with brown stripes. Big stripes. What wrong? It's been super hot here. The last month it has not gone under 90 degrees. Is the heat the problem or does it have some kind of weird plant disease? Please help.


Only answer this if you know for sure. No guesses please.

I have several houseplants and we seem to have a massive outbreak of fungus gnats all of a sudden. I do allow my plants to dry out and remain so for several days before watering again. I check the moisture levels with a meter to be sure that I am not over watering. I do not want to have to purchase any chemical or bacterial insecticide. (I am a college student and don't seem to have a dime to spare at the moment.) What can I do to eliminate the fungus gnats and larvae efficiently?

Presently, I use a pumice stone which was sold to me by a pool store.What alot of unnecessary hard labor! There must be an easier solution. So far everything that I've been told to try has failed. Who knows what will work? Please no wives-tales!

I never find a lot... just 1 or 2 a week. They are never in my kitchen either... they are always in the bathroom, or in the kids' bedroom.

I have, on occasion, mistakenly left food out in the kitchen, and yet I never see them on the food in the morning or in the middle of the night when I come upon it.

Do I have an infestation? Or does one of the other attached apartments have them and they just come over on occasion??

Will it do me any good to have the exterminator come in since he will only spray my apartment, and not the whole building? I hate having the exterminator come since I have 2 kids and a dog, and I am worried about the effects of the pesticide.
