Me and my boyfriend are buying our own house but need a rough idea so we can work out our budget. Any answers based on 2/3 sharing would be good.
We don't have any electrical equipment that would use excessive amounts other than the usual T.V, washing machine, microwave, computer etc. But we are thinking of getting a tumble dryer so answers including that would be helpful.
Pleae help!! Thanks

(The reason is to save energy and therefore reduce global warming.)

Does that include halogen lamps and if so what do all the people with dimmer switches in their rooms do.

(As I understand it the new energy saver bulbs will not work with dimmer switches)

Every year I get wasps on my patio. The try to build their nests everywhere. Sometimes they even get inside the shell of the jacuzzi, and I have to take it apart and smoke them out! Is there a better way to eliminate, deter, or discourage these wasps? I really don't like to use the insecticides.

The refrigerator is my neighbor's parents' and is in excellent condition. She got a new one by default from her other son who purchased the wrong size for his new house.

Hi Everyone,
My husband found an exploded D battery in a small appliance. Of couse, when he tried to remove the battery, it fell on the floor and got the "battery juice" on the carpet. What's the best way to clean up the mess? He thinks vacuuming is the way to go but I'm not so sure.

PS: I have a toddler. I want to make sure that there's no residue left behind for him to find.

Thanks!

i'm wondering if there is anyway to freeze seeds for a few yrs or just put them into a jar would it last for a few yrs? if there is a way to hibernate them so to speak, will it reduce the count of the reproduction of the seeds? or is there a better way?

So I am moving to the basement of this house and its like an apartment with room, bathroom, my own door, etc. Only, I am scared b/c Im going in there with my 5months twins and the basement has practically been a storage for a lot of junk! I am scared that it might be too dirty since it hasn't been cleaned in years and who knows what's down there!?

I wanted to see if anyone knows of I think its a machine or something that I get to check if everything is good in the air (a friend told me about this) something to check to see if its good to live down there. She's just heard of it also and doesn't know if there is an actual thing. Anyone know. Please Help. Thanks.

I have so many ant hills on both my front and back lawn that you can't even walk on it without getting them on you. When I mowed for the first time, I just bought the home, I was slicing off the tops of dozens of ant hills.

How do I A) get rid of the ants. I tried the cornmeal but it doesnt seem to be working.
B) How do I get the lawn to be flat again?
C) I have a puppy and a young son so I am concerned about chemicals.

The person with the best answer gets to come over to my place and prove themselves right! : )

All the local cats like to use my garden as their toilet and i cought my son putting it in his mouth once. It makes me so mad. Obviously i don't want to hurt them but i wondered if anyone knew any tactics to get them to bog off for good.

I can't do anything to the fencing as it is rented property.

These are all first year plants and are fruiting well, and I want to protect them so they will reproduce even better next year. Should I take them indoors or just leave them to weather outdoors. Can I put them under glass or clear plastic to protect them?

I live in a house that has a house beside us and the person who lived here before me paved the entire area between the two houses, now 95% of the paved area is our land and is our driveway that we park in. My neighbor always has people coming over and parking in our driveway and she doesn't say anything about it. Today my husband is at work and she had some contractors show up and they parked in the driveway, she showed up to let them in and didn't tell them to move their car. Is there anything that I can do to stop this from happening? We constantly have to tell her but she doesn't seem to care. UGH!!!
