It sounds more like a oppossum or something that big, but can't find a place for it to get in or out. It is a mobile home that is well enclosed. I have checked for dug out spots and they aren't any.

I removed the wallpaper from my kitchen and some parts of the drywall have been damaged. It appears the first layer of drywall paper has been ripped off. In some places the drywall has dime size holes. I do not want to remove the drywall, I want to repair it. I don't have the money to replace it, but I do have time to repair it.

I need to know the easiest way to remove nails from a deck without damaging the boards as much as possible. These are the nails that have ridges in them, so they dont come out as easy as regular nails. Any help would be appreciated.

I bought a Troybuilt push mower with a Briggs and Stratton 6.5hp V-Start back in 2005. I was then shipped to Iraq, but my wife back home continued to use the mower regularly. I get back in Oct '06, mow the lawn a few times, and then in the middle of cutting the grass one day it dies. I do all the normal checks, thinking it's probably out of gas. Everything was fine, and I haven't been able to start the mower since. The only obvious thing I could notice different was the air filter seemed to be soaked in gas. Since then, I have changed the air filter, spark plug, and added some new oil....still no luck. I was about to tear it down and clean it, but maybe there is an easier fix? I don't believe I am getting a spark from my plug, but I haven't checked in a dark room to be sure. I heard these newer mowers are really sensitive to dirt and dust, could this be the culprit? It's a brand new mower, I would really hate to have to replace it.

And what about those long fluorescent bulbs in department stores - with a burned out out bulb, is the electricty that is available being consumed?

My own guess is that a broken filament will simply leave an open circuit through which electricity doesn't travel. But for all I know, the electricity might actually bridge that gap, with no filament to light up in its journey.

Let me know which is best practice to use and electrical Liquid Mosquito repeller.

the line is for a central air conditioner and it currently draing straight into the main vent stack. There's no trap. I'm thinking this is wrong, but can't think of an alternative.

I have never had a garbage disposer before and this one sounds like it wants to work but I can't get it to do anything. I reset the little red button and it makes a humming noise for a few minutes then it shuts back off. It isn't a big deal to have or not but that side of the sink sometimes takes 6-8 hours to drain and its starting to stink at times. Any ideas would be helpful.

I have an older MTD push mower that revs too high. It does not have a throttle control, only a choke on the front of the engine. It revs so high that the vibration makes my hands hurt to use it. In case it helps...the mower uses straight gas, not a gas/oil mix.

Where should I begin to find out what the problem is?
