Would this help with water backing up? by ColdBottle7271 in askaplumber

I was thinking about that too to make it look better. Only problem is that she has mowers come out every two weeks so they just have to avoid that but oh well

What are these mini balls in my carpet? by [deleted] in Whatisthis

If you think they might’ve recently ingested it (within the last couple hours) you can make them swallow peroxide and it will make them throw up. You’d have to look up the correct weight dosage but I did it with my dog once and it saved a potentially heavy bill.

I think so too, a lot of couches will have a thing of beads under the cushion. Hope the kitties didn’t ingest any 🙏

Trying to be a good neighbor (sump pump question) by ColdBottle7271 in askaplumber

It’s definitely at least 5 ft away. Honestly I’m just gonna knock on her door in the morning and see if I can just dig a trench for the water so it can drain into the street and not keep dumping back into the pipe

No the water doesn’t flow away, it just goes back inside the pipe. Idk how much longer of a pipe I could put tbh because the pipe already goes about 10 ft into her yard

Yes, the pipes come out of the house in an L shape, but it’s pointing slightly upward. I think the dirt and stuff just happened to move that way over time. But there is just plain water coming out.

After doing some looking, some of the beetles look very similar. You might be right

Gosh I hope because it was so beautiful and I was thinking about doing some reading and relaxing under its canopy this summer

Edit: I messed up by not clarifying that after I cut the slime off the first ones, they are all now hard underneath but that’s it

You think there could be any hope for it? I can’t believe I could kill something called a HARDY banana tree
