I'm looking for alternative ways for some older members of my family to be able to dispense water from their delivered water bottles. They currently have a standing dispenser, but it's becoming increasingly difficult for them to life the heavy bottles, even the 3.5 gallon ones. Are there pumps that would allow the dispensing of water without having to lift the bottles? Consuming water from the sink or fridge isn't an option. Thanks.

We have mice in our attic. We set snap traps as well as the sticky ones. We think they are coming in through a particular vent. The exterminator told us NOT to seal up the hole yet. He set traps this morning as well as put bait out. I am concerned the bait will kill the mice and they will die in the attic. He says they will go outside looking for water and die. I think we should call him back and ask him to remove the bait and we should seal up the hole NOW. Am I missing something?

It's winter, we live in Michigan, it snows, and we still want to grill, there is ice on the wood deck, what would be the best thing to melt the ice off the wood. I am relatively sure that rock salt will start to ruin the wood. What are your suggestions?

Thanks!

When I was taking down X-Mas lights on my roof the other day I noticed a small hole on my roof. It was only @ 2 inches round and the shingle was torn apart. I know a raccoon did it. I hear them up there often. They live in an old abondened house next door, and they have dug a big hole in that roof where they live. How do I keep them from doing the same thing to my house?

I have some plants that have died recently, and there have been a few little flies around the house. I'm not sure which plants the flies are coming from. The dead ones or the current ones that may be dying, but i don't know yet. I even got a venus fly trap and it died as well. I live in a very dry city. How do i find which plants have the flies and why do they have them? How to take care of the problem, and is there anything i can do to prevent my future plants from dying?

Dear All,

we have a tremendous ant problem in our house. Have you encountered any effective solutions (either pest control products or services) that decisively reduced the infestation? The situation is so severe that I can see ants crawling on everything...( at least 5 on each table) and sometimes I would find ants crawling on my skill and my neck without realizing...help...

I'm not really sure if this is the place to ask, but I'm wondering if someone can help me out and tell me what type of butterfly this is? It's black with yellow stripes, but is not a swallowtail. The picture was taken today in a park in Florida by a river, if that means anything.

There's a picture of it, and there is another picture in there of the underside of the same type of butterfly.... it has some red markings on it. Thanks!

ok I know that this sounds weird but I have a staff made out of bamboo that seems to be growwing larger as time goes on, when i got it it was 6ft, but now it looks more like 7ft. I know this sounds weird but please no bad comments, also the bamboo is changing color from green to brown, is this normal?
