I have purchased a chemical named Tarax from France, will this help to break down the waste and/or help maintain the life expectancy of the pit? I have it emptied a couple of times per year, yet some other people in the area haven't emptied theirs for years?!?!

I was looking a way to get rid of ants, and someone said that sprinkling uncooked grits on the anthill will cause them to die.

They said that the ants will eat the grits, which will then swell up after absorbing the juices in the ant's body, which will cause them to split open.

Is this just a crazy tale, or does it really work?

I used a calibrated multimeter at a socket. I confirmed this reading with a new multimeter. What can i do about this? I think it may be responsible for my laptop needing 5 new motherboards in the last 18 months. Any comments welcome. Thanks.

My daughter just had her gas bill and it was £154.86 for 3 months during that time she was away for 3 weeks. she only has a small flat and the gas is only used for heatting (her flat is always cold) and water she is at collage full time so isn't useing it during the day. We have the same supplier and are home all day with heatting on all the time we also use gas for cooking. our bill was half of what her bill was.
Is it possable someone has either tapped into her supply before she moved there or there is a leak? gas saftey check has been done yearly from landlord.
the boiler fires up when nothing is being used.

I'm looking at the online Burpee catalog and it says "Shallot - 1 Pkg. (10 sets)". What does it mean by "sets"? I'm thinking of ordering some to grow in my garden in the spring.

I just bought two lavender plants and now have them in gallon-size earthenware planters. They're doing well, but I just want to make sure I don't kill them!
