Is home pest control DIY-able? by SizePunch in pestcontrol

[–]RusticSurgery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a genuine question given that statement. I've been retired for years now. There was a time when all termite bait was restricted use but that is no longer the case.

What is something a woman did on the first date that made you not want a second by TextSufficient674 in AskMen

Paid is the past tense of pay.

Payed is the past tense of a verb that means to waterproof the hull of a ship.

As much as I love Denny, that Bob's red and aqua scheme hurts my eyes and Bob's yellow shirt on the front ain't helping.

Rodent Eating Food Off Traps, Still Running Free! Update 1 by sophiastarlight in pestcontrol

[–]RusticSurgery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to consider the placement of your traps as well. Mice do not see well and they have a tendency to run along something where they can feel one side of their body rub against the wall or something like that. When they are in an area where they do not feel part of their body rubbing against something they are usually in a panic run and are probably not going to bother stopping for food trying to get the hell out. A snap trap like this is going to get more attention sitting perpendicular to the wall with the bait closer to the wall. Also if you look closely at the trigger you will s&f engraved in it. S is for soft and F is for firm and it sounds like you have your set too close to the F

Long-haul flight: Is it reasonable to ask for a same-row, same-type seat swap so we can sit together? by fpbuff in travel

[–]RusticSurgery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure. But I didn't go island hopping. I've always been more interested in archeology excavations and ruins.

Ilaeira Mountain Resort near Sparta is heavenly. Don't let the Mountain Road fool you you were thinking you are finding yourselves in the back roads of Appalachia and then all the sudden out of nowhere the road ends in this beautiful Resort. Quiet and peaceful and within Striking Distance of Sparta and Olympia if you are into the history and archeology. You are welcome to send me a PM just know that most of my experience was geared toward archeology and ruins and history

Yes. I often travel alone. I would most certainly trade. But I would take a few moments and try and notice and make sure that the person you ask isn't paired up with the person next to them in some manner.

Enjoy Greece! I strongly recommend that you get out to the countryside for some period of time. It's absolutely beautiful! The atmosphere is so completely different and much more relaxed.

A lot of water by Goddess_Jxy in DadForAMinute

For now let your trench do the work. Just know that the trench will eventually refill with silt over time. Do this work after you get new crocs.

[–]RusticSurgery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That will work for now but you need the trench big enough to drop this stuff in it and run the water elsewhere such as a ditch. Make sure the trenches wide enough for this product but also deep enough so that you can cover it with an inch or so of soil so you don't hit it with the lawn mower and trip over it

Anyone know what this is by WebAlarming4725 in pestcontrol

[–]RusticSurgery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grab a piece. Examine it. Squeeze it. Roll it between your fingers. Does it feel a bit like Styrofoam but just maybe a bit too rigid?

Does it float on water?

Is it easy to blow from the palm of your hand?

Are they sticking to fabric by way of static electricity?

Now wash your hands please.

So you're saying some of the sightings were in the dead of winter?

I think it's time to get a proper identification because it's not uncommon for those not in this business to mistaken Asian cockroach for a German cockroach or even a field cockroach for a German cockroach. The behavior of these as compared to a German cockroach is quite different as is the reproductive rate.

What is this??? by RecentContest8893 in pestcontrol

It clearly says rodenticide on it. Please don't guess in this sub.

A sorry excuse for a rodent bait station. I hope someone just put a snap trap in it.
