In UAE I have faced almost all apartments have roaches. Advion is a saviour. But roaches will build tolerance if you use this . Keep changing gel every 3 or 6 months
We just purchased a home on 4.5 ac of SE of Hamiltom, MT. OUR Wter table depth is usually between 6-8' deep. I am seriously thinking the geothermal may be a good viable option. Our winter lows can be -20⁰ and sum.er high's are up in the mid 90's for about 3 weeks in July/Aug. I'd love to speak with you about this system you installed and get a bit more input/feedback from you. Can we chat on the phone? Thanks. Brad de Geus
Im looking at a small geothermal system for 1 interior room (4' x 8') to become an emergency "cool room" (or warm room) in a grid down situation. I have 400w of solar, 200ah of batteries and a 2000w inverter although id like to run this off 12v. I picked up 100 yards of black flexible tubing at a 2nd hand shop and a small radiator / fan kit. I have bo idea about the pump size or amount of tubing actually nerded to oull this off (hopefully cheaply, haha). Are there any tips or resources you could offer that might help me fine tune this idea before I implement? Great videos btw!
Rapide SL also has poor build quality! Had 3 of them break on me on my pct thru. Big agnes were good on their warranty and replaced them all, but I would honestly rather have gotten something else
Crazy you paid someone to do flooring but did roofing and concrete work yourself. Flooring is simple with new construction. My install cost was 18,000 and material cost 10,000
Terro works great too, the powder kind. The refrigerator is the target area but put it in every crack and crevice all around the house especially in draws and around furniture
Got this from Mother Earth News many many years ago and it works. Put about 1 inch or 2 of the cheapest red wine that you can find in a deep glass or glass mayonnaise jar. Don't use plastic. They can't resist the smell of wine so they climb down and drink the wine. Roaches can't handle the alcohol so they fall in and drown. I know this sounds crazy but it works. Our first apartment we rented had roaches we discovered after we moved in and we put out glasses like as I described. We put them in the cupboards and on the countertops. The first morning they were clogged with dead roaches. It took a week to beat the roaches. The people who discovered it apparently had an outdoor party on their patio. It got over so late they decided to just clean up in the morning, the next morning all the cups with wine had dead roaches and other bugs floating in them. My Mom got roaches from bags of dog food and we used this method and got rid of them.
So I have about 3/4 of an acre, very sandy soil, and a fairly high water table for a section of the yard (thankfully not where my house is, half the lot including my house is up on/in a hill). Is a GSHP doable?
Being in California where roaches are many, our government will not allow me to order Vendetta or the other product. What is the next best thing? We have all sorts of roach bates but not the specific kinds that you recommend.
Question: I have a 6,762 sq ft 2-story ICF and now working on HVAC for it. I’d entertained Geothermal but common power outages makes me hesitant. I’m interested in knowing the size and quantity of HVAC systems people with ICF use, lessons learned, etc. recommendations. Thanks
Thanks for sharing this. I watched the video while I was lying in bed. I woke up this morning and headed to the big orange store. This helped clean my clogged main line. My septic tank filter also needed to be cleaned which I did as well. Thanks for helping out homeowners that like to fix things ourselves. 🎉
Do you have the link to the exact kit that you used? or did you buy the orifices separately? I have this same S330 that I need to convert from NG to Propane.
I'm on a septic system and started hearing a gurgle from the kitchen sink drain. pulled the service cap off the septic tank and found it was ready to be emptied. Figured that must be causing the problem. Had that done and the next thing we knew the toilets were backing up. Did a little research and found there is a blockage in the pipe to the tank. Tried putting a small nozzle down the cleanout pipe outside but nasty things were coming back up. My suspicion was right, had a block at the tank. Called a plumbing service and they wanted 425.00 + to come out. And that would be in 2-3 days. Thank God for this video! Went to the big box store and picked up a bladder, came home, stuck it in the pipe as directed in this video and in 5 min all was golden! Try it! You'll like it! My wife and I sure did! We love saving money! Thank you soooo much for this video!
