But there brown and that means to me that my weeping helmlock has a cold. What's wrong with my tree and how do I heal it before its to late. Thank you for your time and patience.

I'm thinking of using one to store some good for a short period of time i.e. 6 months. I notice there are indoor ones, outdoor ones, ones that use old shipping containers, etc. I probably wont need much more than a 10' x 15' x 8'. What should I know about these places, and is there a better/cheaper option. Thanks

ours is the first level one so EVERYONE turns around in it. It is making the drive a mess. Cars leave their tire marks on it and one day a truck knocked over our trash can and left it there. We want to put up a gate but our house is too close to the street and it will look silly - any ideas? It is making me nuts. We have a nice house and want to keep it that way.

I have a small 5,000 BTU in-window a/c. I bought it new last year. It leaked a little last year, but since I have installed it this summer, it seems to be leaking more. Is there anything I can do short of taking it to get repaired?

I have lots of wind chimes, little ones, they don't put out too much noise, only when it is windy and because they are little it isn't very loud. Would the noise scare off the Hummingbirds, I don't see any going to my feeder, water level is still the same.....anyone??

I recently put down landscaping pebbles/stone around my house and i like the look of them wet and glossy when i first put them down. Now that they are dried out the color kind of clashes with my brick home. Can i spray a wet glossy sealer on them and mix them around for that look? Will that hurt my plants? PLease help or offer suggestions.

Is it me, or are Home Depot employees getting younger and younger? I honestly think that it's not the greatest of ideas. Here's why. My father and I headed over there to find parts and such to fix the plumbing among other things. We went to specific sections and couldn't find certain parts. We asked one employee who I think was around 19. That employee had a huge question mark on his head and referred us to another employee who was, guess what, just as young. Neither of them knew of what my dad was talking about. I think if you are going to get a job at hardware stores like Home Depot or Lowe's, you should have experience. The service was horrible. We eventually found what we were looking for, after talking to a much older employee who knew his stuff.

When using a gas oven or stove, it is normal to smell a bit of the gas being released. If someone had a particularly acute sense of smell is there anything to do to remedy or lessen this smell? The smell was strong enough that they were forced to open the windows.

My garage is partially drywalled right now and the rest of the walls are just framed. The previous owner already installed shelving on the framing. I was going to take the shelving out, add insulation and drywall, and add more shelving, but I'm wondering is it really necessary? I could just redo the shelving over the framing like the previous owner did. It's just a single car garage with a washer/dryer i don't really care how it looks. Should I take the time to drywall it and make it look nice or just add the shelving I need. It doesn't really look bad, it just looks unfinished.

Well, you see, I may get a new dog soon. Well, I have two rooms right by each other, so the dog will use the room I never use. However, in my room, there's a bad smell. You see, when my old dog was a puppy, all he ever did was urinate on my carpet, and the smell of it has been stuck in there for years. I'm afraid the smell would either be unbearbale for my new dog, or he'd try to cover it up with his own, making even more of a stench.
We've already tried arm and hammer baking soda odor remover, but it didn't work. Is there anything that would get rid of the smell? I'm going to try Febreeze sometime.
I'de also love it if the product wasn't tested on animals.
