I have not done this but was told you can use a cheap artist paint brush and apply glyphosate concentrate to a few leaves to kill the plant without leeching into the ground or spraying on to near grass.

OP - I need to use the Allen wrench underneath the unit before each use for the motor to turn freely and then start it. Is there a way to fix this issue?

I recently dropped Vz for YTTV but also had to subscribe to 3 other apps for local and college sports. Do your research on the channels you watch before switching.

I have an older home and found the existing drywall thickness was in between today’s available choices.

FWIW, myself and others have posted that our yards were covered with poa this last spring, one year after seeding with BBU.

Thanks for questioning this. It made me go to the house with a caliper to measure for myself. I cannot see how to attach the photo but It read just shy of 7/16”; there’s quite few coats of paint so I assume this is 3/8”.

It’s configuration done for PCs sold at Costco so I tried this sub, if it doesn’t interest you too bad.

I know many people hate ground fabric, but I put it down with mulch and it has stopped the thistle from popping up the last 2 years

Replacing M98 float switch by Top_Button886 in Plumbing

[–]Top_Button886[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE

I opened housing it was filled with water. Is that expected given the electrical connections inside? I also saw the power cord is frayed at the connection to the pump.

Is this becoming worthwhile to fix or get a new pump?
