The fencing men have left their tools and a hired concrete mixer in our back garden.

How long should we give them to come and collect before we dispose of them?

What on earth do we do with a concrete mixer if they don't collect it?

We have a tree in our front yard that hangs over our driveway. Every summer, the tree produces sap, dripping it on our cars and attracting lots of ants. Help!!! I love the tree, hate the sap.

I mean, the best I can come up with is "This is how you plant a seed", or "This is a shovel, it is used for...."
Preferably nothing that involves carrying around dirt etc.
Any ideas?

Long story short, before I moved in my back yard was a main littler box for my neighbor who has i think it was 14 cats. I have attempted planting grazz, soil is almost too acidic (cat pee and urine maybe...) I am fixing that problem. yesterday I found cat poop in my basil pot. A dead bird on the sidewalk in front of my place, I then raked my lawn/dirt and gathered a huge bag of poop. (done this multiple times) What can I do? Anyone know any legal ways of helping me nicley keep the cats away?
I know shooting water helps, but im usually not home from 8am - 7pm... PLEASE HELP

I am starting to get clover that is creeping over from my neighbor's yard (under my fence). I have become exasperated trying to keep it at bay. Do any of you know something that does a good job at getting rid of this stuff that won't damage my grass too much? Also, any tips on keeping it from coming under the fence?

This summer, I am attempting (attempting being the key word) to save the number of dying/suffacating plants on my terrace. Mostly aloes (tropical climate). And some plants I've yet to identify (left by previous owner), which I will undoubtebly being coming to the internet to find out more about.

However, today's question involves the aloes. Many of them (okay, all) are big, beautiful aloes that are being suffacated by surrounding, smaller ones. I have managed to get a few out, which is already helping. However, how do I preserve the smaller aloe plants? I am planning on repotting them withing 1 or two days (possibly more depending on my schedule) but how do I preserve them for now? or do I have to repot them immediately?

Thank you.

....are coming out in droves.

These ants are not friendly and bite visciously and are very smart! I have put fire ant bait in their mounds but they close them up (making me think it worked) and then they move the mounds elsewhere and continue to get busy.

Anyone have a sure fire procedure for eliminating these pests permanently?

I live in the Phoenix area, so it's hot down here. I have no idea what type of grass I have. It's dying all over the place. I need to know the best plan of attack to bring it back to life. When is the right time to do what? I see ads all over the place for this seed and that fertalizer. What exactly should my approach be?

I am interested in a balustrade made of cast stone, but I have doubts about how it would hold up under harsh winters, appearance, and durability. Can anyone inform me of your experiences with a cast stone product please?

The trees are in my yard but have been there for 40+ years. I have no objection to the removal of the branches that he has chosen but I don't see why I should pay for it. The trees were there when he moved in so it is not as if anything has changed. I, on the other hand, now hear his air conditioning unit which was newly installed. I don't have one so my windows are open. Also he has let his hedge grow so tall that it shades my garden but I believe that all of this is just part of living in a cheek- by- jowl neighbourhood.

I have began to grow broccoli in the garden, but have a few questions that need answering.

1) Is broccoli perennial or does it need replanting each year? what is the best way to do so?

2) Are the small yellow flowers edible? Do they have any nutritius value?

Any other tips would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
