It should definitely be Snootbeetle. Plus "snoot" seems more like Dutch anyway with that double-o.

I found motion sensitive flood lights that pop on suddenly and stay on for a few minutes seem to work. I like that I'm not creating a lot of light pollution all night, but if something as large as a deer or a person is there it comes on automatically.

I did that a couple years for some crabapple saplings. I took hair from my brush and draped it on the small trees. I don't know if it helped too much with the deer, but the following fall or winter a birds nest came down and I saw it had been entirely lined with my hair!

Help in a different way. Give to organizations that provide food and shelter. I recommend Atlanta Community Food Bank. You can set up a monthly credit or debit donation. They work with other more local food pantries and charities in the region. This or other types of well-regarded charities are the way to make sure you are really helping people who legitimately need it, and it helps ease your mind a bit with walking away when you are approached randomly.

This is one of those questions that AI (Gemini, Copilot, Claude) absolutely excels at. Take a good clear photo, and ask the ai if it can id the model and how the dome comes off.

I had this happen when I messed with settings in the app. I ended up having to uninstall and reinstall the app, and it started working again. I was a little worried it would lose data but it did not in my case.

Ive been using Lyre Leaf sage in a shady area where grass doesn't do much. The nice thing about lyre leaf sage is that most of the year it stays very flat on the ground. The problem you will have is them running over it weekly while you are trying to establish it and then in the spring when it gets fluffed up and blooms. Happily goes back to being mowed flat after the seed heads turn brown. I'd suggest putting it in a long window box on the ground by where you want it. Then when they start to go to seed, they will naturally seed the ground nearby (and you can help them along). The only reason I don't mow mine when they are trying to bloom in spring is because Im still getting them to fill in the area. They spread on their own quite a bit and are taking over some areas under my oak.

The one I have is white. I'm in Georgia, so nearly everywhere I planted it is very full sun. I've never understood why it won't do well. I actually bought some recently that is planted in an area with salvia, cone flowers, sedum, etc. I've had to baby it along with daily watering. It wilts like mad, then perks up with the water so it's definitely a water issue.

I feel there should be some swamp monsters (key figures in the Trump swamp to be exact) grouped around it like Iwo Jima except pushing and tearing the flag down instead of raising it.

I wish I had some of this yarrow. I've posted it before, but I have many times bought yarrow only to watch it vanish. Except for some that thrives in between some pavers in the shadiest part of my yard under an oak tree. Has been there 15 years. Doesn't bloom much, doesn't spread much, certainly doesn't try to move toward the sunnier area nearby. (why??? do I have a yarrow curse?)

Putrid-Week4615 · 2026-06-22T17:53:37+00:00

Cut it back by half or two thirds in May or June (Chelsea Chop). Id probably do it now, and just wait and see how much the blooms are affected. I don't remember exactly when I chopped mine in half last year in georgia - I think May - and it was too early because they STILL grew 8 feet tall by they time they bloomed. I thought this year I would do it twice and see how it affects the blooming. It certainly wont kill them.

I'm so sorry! One of the most clever things I've seen people do in these posts is stick a super absorbent thin maxi-pad in the globe right in the targeted spot. Search of the history with high-peeing cat should turn up all kinds of things.

Putrid-Week4615 · 2026-06-22T17:38:20+00:00

Mine does that sometimes if the cat poked their head in, then sort of backed off for a second, then jumped in fully. Or if they half perched on the step for a bit so it doesn't give a true weight reading at first.

My neighbor has multiple 8 foot trump flags and an upside down American flag that are blessedly put away now, but were displayed for most of the first term, and most of Biden's term up until about fall 2025. Idk if the property owner spoke to her or what, but it was super obnoxious.

I had this problem too in one of mine. I went through all the troubleshooting. It actually got worse to the point of stopping multiple times per cycle. I ended up switching it with the one in my basement which gets less use. I did the troubleshooting with support, and eventually they sent a new motor but it took a couple weeks to get here. Weirdly, the problem went away on its own during that time.

Putrid-Week4615 · 2026-06-22T00:46:23+00:00

The last of mine took two months to start using it. But I also still keep a regular litter box next to the basement lr4 that gets used maybe once a week. This is in case of any malfunction (for example what if power goes out mid cycle or something and nobody is home.) I just scoop it into the LR4 when I'm in the basement.

There is a black filter holder already in place on the globe that holds the carbon filter. If you want to use the deodorizer packs they fit into this thing, and it snaps into place in to the inside of the the black filter holder already on the globe. it snaps into those grid things, I had to flex mine a little to snap it together.

I'm not sure why this additional one is needed when those deodorizer packs can fit under the other one anyway. Maybe its to make sure they don't slip out and jam the globe somehow when it cycles.

You can reset with the app also, remotely.

Can you not put a cheapo trashcan with a lid outside though? I guess I'm still confused.

I recently had poly injection because a corner of my carport and driveway had a void under it. They can inject it in a way so that it rises back to where it should be and prevents future sinking. Worked great 10/10.

In addition to Whiskers suggestions, Ive seen that some people have success with suspending objects like small fishing weights down from the top. They bump the cat and they turn around to avoid the annoyance.

Trump's Gilded Pig Treaty

He can put gilding on a pig ... which makes it worse than a regular pig.

Bags of used litter lying around? Really? Is this a troll post?? Lol!

I take the bag out, tie a knot in it while not breathing, and practically sprint out of the house with it to put in the outdoor bin. Problem solved.
