We bought a house where the lawn wasn't mowed for about 3 years. After finally getting it down, I discovered we have pocket gophers. I tried a couple of the commercial baits down the holes and even Juicy Fruit gum. Nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas for me. Thanks!

I'd like to switch from regular, incandescent light bulbs to spiral-shaped fluorescent light bulbs. However, it says on the package that you are not supposed to put globes over fluorescents, even though fluorescents don't give off as much heat. Why is that?

I need some fill dirt for my yard. At construction sites, they always have big piles of dirt, some obviously just dug up, but some that looks like "new" dirt. Do they have dirt left over, and if so, do you think they would let me take some if I ask?

I just bought some plug-in string lighting at home depot.
Instead of having to plug these in, I would like to wire them to my wall switch which has a dimmer on it.

When I removed the old light from the wall it has 3 wires, black, white and brass. The plug in lights have 2, the "hot" wire and the other one (i have no clue about this stuff)

Any help on making this happen would be great!

Thanks

Has anyone been to a Lowe's or Home Depot How-to-Clinic? Did you find the clinic useful? Was it hands on? Did you feel they taught you enough to do the job yourself? What type of clinic did you attend? Thanks.
