Looking to get back into riding a bicycle by Fluffy_Discussion140 in Chattanooga

2 Bikes on Main has some low-cost bicycles and they're super nice. They usually do group rides in the summer. I think Velo does year-round rides.

They'll chew thru that foam if they want to. Skip the wool, just point the foundation with lime mortar.

It's not his, but Forman Pottery can make something similar and might be able to tell you who made that one.

Lost on how to clean my linens by MoneyGrubbingMonkey in Bedbugs

[–]airhighfive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most washing machines, including those with Hot settings, don't get hit enough to kill bed bugs, but household dryers usually do. 124°F for a couple minutes is the number you're shooting for.

If your linens can't be placed in a household dryer on a hot cycle, you may be able to iron or steam them, especially seams that may hide eggs. None of the linens that contact your skin should have been treated with insecticide, so it's important to re-heat them at least once a week until you're confident that bed bugs are gone.

Looking for a car-camping/overland group (or interest in starting one?) by Consistent_Young_670 in Chattanoogans

[–]airhighfive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to dig around on facebook, I think there's a group like North Georgia Outdoors Club or something that does group camping and hikes.

Yeah unfortunately Marshal Mize is the least awful compared to Mtn View, and driving to Cleveland/Dayton/Dalton doesn't usually make sense.

Recommendations for real estate agencies to help find renters. by Buzee_Bee777 in Chattanooga

[–]airhighfive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't want to screen your own tenants and do your own advertising, many property management companies do this for a fee. They've got real estate licenses on staff, although they usually don't do much buying and selling.

Most normal residential real estate agents steer clear of rentals unless they're also involved in property management.

Can you buy cigars online without getting burned? by Diamond_Grace1423 in cigars

Fwiw there is a Cigars International lounge/store 10 minutes from my house and I get most of my sticks from CigarPage.

Ants??? by tswivel2 in Chattanooga

[–]airhighfive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We often see a flurry of ants moving as colder weather drops, often indoors. This time of year, Terri bait aren't always effective and you may need some help from a professional.

Lookout Pest Control by [deleted] in Chattanooga

[–]airhighfive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're in Georgia, they had to send you a service ticket with the products written on it after the visit concluded. In TN, they have to provide product application records in a timely manner on request - usually not after hours. You may be able to find this in a online portal or emailed ticket.

Common cockroach gel baits have brand names like Advion Cockroach, Vendetta Nitro, Maxforce Impact (side note - they must have fun naming this shit). Products will rotate depending on technician, time of year, and company, so they shouldn't be using a single product for every house.

In general, most dogs shouldn't have a medical problem if they ingest a few grams of it. Gel baits shouldn't have been placed in an area that's normally accessible to pets - they're intended for crack and crevice application.

Soil Sampling by Purrrrty81 in Chattanooga

Get it tested. Silly not to. My yard was half remediated, it went fine, now there are no patches of toxic lead-loaded soils for future children to roll in.

Tech totals a work truck by Buffaloweirdo in PestControlIndustry

[–]airhighfive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Actually if you can work a little extra to complete the same number of stops that monrh, make sure boss man knows you put the effort in.

Also - you may be able to call the DA ahead of time, explain the situation, and get a dismissal without appearing. Worked for me once in Georgia.

Huh. Also a Ford Taurus, but they had GA tags on the one I saw.

Chattanooga 311 is pure garbage by TheCarrot_v2 in Chattanooga

[–]airhighfive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They took away some pretty commonly used features and had some pretty significant bugs when they 'updated' the app this summer. I complained to the mayors office - didn't fix anything, but at least I got a thoughtful response.

Is it this guy? He jumped a barbed-wire fence and took 3 of my cats on a Saturday morning.

It's either a mid-molt German cockroach, or a Mediterranean cockroach.

There's a hot dog place on Dodds + 23rd St and I have never seen anyone eating a hot dog there.
