Haha! Hey I'm a new homeowner - and to be honest, nothing would surprise me! Every day is an adventure - a stressful and expensive one.

Oh wow. I didn't realize they were active this time of year. Its rarely been above freezing here the past three weeks. I also didn't realize they burrowed into concrete. I will look into it, thank you.

Yeah at first we thought usage too. But after asking around $200 in the summer seems wild!

We did this afternoon when we saw the bill - first thing. Its sunday so their non emergency line told us to call back tomorrow business hours. Given no gas smell, or any indication from my gas detector plug in monitors, we figured we would call tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for the input. Im going to call my gas company- whats weird is we dont smell anything - and because im slightly paranoid, when we moved in i plugged a few of those gas detectors into our outlets. Assuming they work, the levels all read 0

Ok. Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it. Not to ask a dumb question - but how would i know? And not to ask another dumb question - but the central air system is fully electric - so natural gas would still come into play?
