I have been finding holes all over my front and back yard from them. I noticed a huge nest up high in one of my maple trees. I have no idea how to get it down. Anything I can put out to get rid of them? I mostly just want the nest down. What if I throw rocks up there lol will that knock it down. And, I'm afraid of what is in there....Are there actually squirrels in there always?

They were used with exterior paint (Behr) and were left out to dry up or else just dropped in a pail of water to rot! As they are Purdy's, I can't afford to lose them. I have cleaned them out best I could with soapy water and a paint comb...but they are still gunky!! Any suggestions??

I'm thinking of buying some beach side land and knocking up a really nice single mans pad, but would it cost me a lot to have the construction done in concrete rather than timber.

We applied the primer a few days ago and just applied the first coat last night and we are going to apply the 2nd coat tonight and the color is way too bright! The name of the color is "Like Butter" and on the swatch it appeared to be a softer yellow, not this bright!! So is there anything I can get to apply to the paint for this second coat to tone the bright yellow down?
I want a pale soft yellow, not a canary, hello sunshine yellow that I have now.
The paint is by Valspar (from Lowe's), and it's a latex paint.
If I don't receive accurate help I already know to call Lowe's (hardware store) for help and ideas of what can be done.
Thanks soooo much and have a great day!

I was planning on black roof, but I've seen a lot of yellowish houses with brown roofs and my neighbor house already has that color scheme (ivory and brown roof). I will be changing my shutters to match the roof color. Currently my shutters are white. I have white windows, trims and doors. Any suggestions and pics will be helpful! Thanks.

I'm wondering if it's possible to transfer photos of my dogs onto pillows. I don't want color, I'd prefer that they look vintage, using sepia. Thank you for any ideas :)
