I have three strawberry jars full of them. Will they survive the winter (Mild - usually) if I just put them in a sheltered corner and cover them with leaves? Or if I take them in a garage, etc. will they die from no sunlight? They are so pretty I hate to lose them, but my house is already full of plants for the winter.

We have thousands that come inside this time of year . They mostly go to our bedroom . We have tried some flying insect spray but that did not work. We are now using a shop vac. I am not exaggerating about the thousands . We have lived here three years and every year we go through this . Does anyone know if there could be a health issue with this ?

I have someone spray my house every 3 months. They were not doing a good job spraying everywhere so I cancelled the service in August. A week ago I saw some bugs and immediately called to have my house sprayed. The person asked what kind of bugs I have. I said waterbugs maybe roaches, I don't know the difference. He pointed out a waterbug and said roaches, (German/food roaches) are different. He said if I have German roaches they are harder to kill, and look different. He started spraying this poison that is supposed to bring them out and kill them. He sprayed it all over my kitchen and only in one area (by the dishwasher) were there any. Anyway, only about 4 came out, which made me very upset (I have a dirty neighbor, and I think their bugs migrate). Anyway, if 4 came out, is this a sign of a major infestation. He said it could become major in 28 days, and said he'd come back in December to bring me new bait traps, these ones have been here for 18 months.

My roommates and I have a slight roach problem. They live in our kitchen behind an unmovable stove/oven. We've had our apartment landlord bring in the exterminator to put down a gel (I believe) along the floor at base of our counters, and this seems to drive them away for a couple weeks' time, but they come back.

We'd like to avoid "bug bombing" the place as we'd have to remove all our food from the kitchen. Is there some other method that could rid us of them? Thanks!

I heard of an alarm to get rid of mice without killing it but I have no idea if it will work. And there is only one mouse to get rid of.

I need to add an addition onto my house and the driveway is lined in cedar trees and they have got to go. Is there a way I can sell these beautiful trees. I hate to let them go to waste. They are full grown cedar trees about 7 or 8 of them.

How do I found out how much they are worth? I am not just cutting them for the money I am building my Mom an apartment and it is the only place it can go and I love her more then cedar trees.;-)

Looks like a cockroach or a giant ant. Maybe entered into the house from an opened electrical outlet. Here are some pictures; it is around 2 inches long.

I have looked around online concerning this, but I was wondering if anyone had any personal experiences to share. Is switching to an electric range generally an involved process? Is it costly? I plan on having a professional do this, but I want to know what I will be getting into financially, time-wise, etc. Any help is appreciated...

There's been a mouse in our house for a couple months, and we can not catch it. It rarely leaves droppings anywhere, but recently we've been seeing it more often. We've put out one of the new De-con no view mouse traps, and a couple snap traps, but after a couple of weeks, we've had no luck. One night we heard both snap traps go off within 5 minutes of eachother, but he wasn't on either of them. I want him OUT! We know he runs out of the bedroom at night, down the hall and into either the other bedroom or into the kitchen. We usually hear him in the kitchen under the stove (that's where the snap traps are). In the past we've successfully caught mice under the sink, behind the refrigerator or under the stove but this one is a little more sneaky. We don't want to use De-Con pellets (though it has worked in the past) because then the mouse will die somewhere in the house, and no one wants to find a dead mouse... HELP!
