What he said.

Yes I saw it. I put out granules for grubs about 2 or 3 times a year on about an acre of the yard surrounding the house. I use a Scott's push broadcast spreader. It's hard work at my advanced age. The other 3 acres of yard I spray with SEVIN. That's a lot easier. I do it to keep the hogs...

Made my first full mow last week. I'd done a couple of partials to hit the high spots and mulch leaves before that. My yard looks like hell. It's never recovered from being worked over by hogs a couple of years ago. It's all weeds and junk grass. I sprayed pre-emergent earlier in the year...

Well, hello there, welcome and glad that you found us.

Same to you and everyone else on here. I poured a toddy at 11:45pm and finished it at 12:30 am. I took the dogs out and then went to bed. I lead such an exciting life.

I know where you're coming from. Many years ago, I paid over $4K to fix the back of a $10 rescue dog ... but she was MY rescue dog and it was worth every penny as it gave her another 6 years of useful life. That dog spent its whole life within 10' of me. It's been over 12 years and I still...

I bet that you are. :sorry:

I don't think that it works like that. :biggrin: Mosquitos and biting flies don't bother me that much but chiggers can see me coming at 50 paces. They are the Devil's spawn.

After all these years I find that out. You know what they say about "assume". :biggrin: It's a pleasure to finally know you ma'am.

Does your engine overheat while the a/c is blowing hot air?

Like you both, I am a battery tender guy. I haven't looked in a long time but they used to make small solar chargers for cars. You placed the small solar panel on your dash and plugged it into the cigarette lighter (when cars used to have such things). Something like that could be easily...

Bordercollie, I'm usually a live and let live kind of guy. If it doesn't bother me then I don't bother it. The only exceptions are hogs and armadillos, especially hogs. If the armadillos are just passing through, then I let them go. However, I don't take any prisoners when it comes to hogs...

He doesn't actually live there. In fact, I don't think that he's been there more than twice in the last 5 years. He has "staff" to look after the place. He owns a nutritional supplement/vitamin company up in New Jersey. He uses the place as a "retreat" for his employees and paying guests...

My neighbor has peacocks. I've only seen the peacock once on my place but the hens come visit for a couple of days every few months. They terrorize the outdoor cat and will even gang up on the dogs when they are outside. I had to take the cat to the vet for a peck wound on her side the last...

Go to kubotausa.com and look for the F-Series. Mine is the smallest one, the F2680, although I think the newest model is called the F2690 it's essentially the same. It's the best mower that I've ever owned and I've had just about every type imaginable. I was in the dealer a couple of weeks...

Just an update. It wasn't the fuel pump on my front mount mower that was at fault, It was an intermittent fault in the control box. Finally, I have my mower back and it's working great.

What is it with animals and holes in trees? My wife and I were back in Scotland just traveling around. We stopped to visit one of the "stately homes". When we were leaving we had to slow down to get through a flock of Jacob sheep who were lying on the hot asphalt. I noticed one of the...

I wish that I'd known that trick many years ago. We had problems with mice chewing the wiring on vehicles stored out in the barn at the farm. They didn't bother the tractors too much but they loved the wiring on the Dodge Custom Van.

That's about the only mouse/rat trap that I haven't tried although I have seen pictures of that set up before. Over the years I've tried just about everything. I still have the most success with the old-fashioned snap type trap baited with cheese of peanut butter. Oh, it also helps to have...

I'm running the heck out of it. Man, I love that thing. In the last couple of weeks I've toted umteen loads of mulch for the flower beds, 1200 lbs of lawn fertilizer for the spreader, I use it to tow the 30 gal sprayer for herbicide for the yard (it really needs it this year), used it to haul...
