I moved to Texas in July.I have been adjusting to Texas well.I have learn how to deal with snakes,spiders,giant bugs,red ants,funny looking giant flying bugs that looks like something you would see in horror movie,the weather change and wild life.But now I have a new problem that I dont know how to handle.On Thanksgiving it was 75 degrees here and with the turkey in the oven all day it got hot in the house.I had the back door open.I noticed a huge flying cockroach coming in the door.My son killed it.Last night I open the front door.Another huge cockroach came in.I had to kill it and they are nasty.People in Texas says it normal because it is getting cooler outside so the bugs are coming inside.My house is clean.How do I prevent these nasty bugs from coming in? I have kids and pets so Im not sure if I can put any poison down.My youngest just turn 2 years old.I will give up my 5 bedroom,2 bathroom house on 3 acres of land before I live with flying cockroaches.

It is saying we have had building works done and it is holding up the completion. However we have lived in the house for 6 years and have never had anything done. What can I do about this?

Thanks

I live in a converted attic. Behind my walls there is a hollow triangular space where the roof meets the top of the walls. I have access to this area and as it has a floor it is completly safe to walk about in. However each night for about a week I have heard something walking/scratching and jumping about in my attic space. When i open the door it has run away. I live on the third floor in a stone house in Scotland. What animal is it most likely to be and what can I do to get rid of it?

My neighbors' garage is a warehouse with shelving units floor to ceiling. The garage has straight rows and walkways. They seem to operate a distribution business from their garage.

I have heard you can measure how much light one's indoor plants are receiving by the shadow of my hand held in front of them.. Is this true and if so what would the shadow tell you? If not how could I measure the light?

I had a leak in our bathtub the other night (that has since been fixed)... in the next room though, there was a large water spot in the middle of the floor... at first I thought my daughter had spilled something not connecting the two. Today, the large water spot has grown to cover about 3 feet of area. It is completely soaked... I have a fan blowing on it but it isn't helping. First- do you think that the bathtub leak would have caused this and second- how do I dry the carpet- it is starting to smell musty already... please help!!! thanks.

Where can you find blueprints for buildings?When I was in college in VA, I absolutely fell in love with the house that I lived in. I want to use that basic design for my own house, but I can't draw worth a squat. Where can I find the blue prints?

My 3 year old daughter recently took a science class (gardening). On the last day, they sent her home with a "mini composter"---an earthworm! The container had instruction to release the worm in the garden in two days. We live in Wisconsin. It's 16 degrees outside and there's 10 inches of snow already on the ground. Is it feasible to try to keep the worm alive until spring? What do I do with it? It surely can't stay in it's current "home", which is nothing more than a condiment container. Help!!!!

we're changing all of our bulbs but we have a hanging light on a dimmer switch. with the new bulbs, if the light is not either on or off, it makes a wierd humming noise. it doesn't seem right. maybe i should stick with my regular bulbs for that one?

I'm interested in switching to solar power for my home. However, I live in the mountains of Park City, Utah where we get 200+ inches of snow annually. A typical January finds 4 feet of snow in the yard and nearly as much on my roof. Would I benefit from switching to solar? Would I have to plow my roof after I'm done plowing the driveway?
Thoughts?
Thanks!!!
