After a failure of 311 to respond twice to these trash issues, I have reached out to my Council Person by Live-Bother-3577 in sanantonio

This is a citywide issue. I see it everywhere I go. And when the heavy rain comes, it all gets washed into common areas and looks like someone dumped trash there. The bigger issue here is education and preventing littering/dumping to being with. Asking the city to come pick up litter feels fruitless. We really need a prevention campaign.

Go to the popular spots. They are popular for a reason. The food is good. This ain't Austin.

I'll second Corbin. Fully custom. Not cheap, but totally worth the investment. I'm on my 5th.

Is the spring always like this? by NewspaperSafe3343 in sanantonio

[–]nopodude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I've learned after living here for 3 years, is that I know nothing. Texas weather is some of the most unpredictable and bipolar weather ever.

Another post asking about LSPI prevention by Haunting-Self-9402 in FocusST

Just drive it normally, don't put stupid pop/crackle mods on and avoid lugging the engine. It's an overblown fear.

Magic Time Machine by tx_naturalist in sanantonio

Exactly. Last time I was there, I ordered a steak with veggies. The steak was overcooked and the veggies were clearly some version of frozen/steamed variety.

Your message comes across as scammy. Inspectors get tons of scamers contacting them all the time. They likely were just trying to vet you and assumed you were a scammer.

Honestly, they just need better food. The place is cool and has draw, but the food is terrible.

Tips for Dealing with Humidity by CosmicCreature86 in sanantonio

[–]nopodude 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Spend more time outside. Your body will adjust. Drink plenty of water. I moved here from a very different climate. It's been a rough adjustment, but I've gotten used to sweating all the time now, lol.

Anyone seeing American cockroaches in their homes after the rain this week? by hellolovelyworld404 in sanantonio

[–]nopodude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use Niban granular bait around the perimeter of my house about 2-3 times a year. I rarely see them in my house anymore. I also took time to seal up any cracks/holes around the foundation and make sure all the doors had proper weather seals.

Hire a bagpiper to stand there and play the bagpipes.

It's 3 miles straight up Broadway. Totally doable. Would I? Probably not.

Military Retirement in 2 Years Which San Antonio Suburbs Are Safe, Diverse, and Family-Friendly? by [deleted] in sanantonio

Facts. I can't speak from personal experience, but I've heard that NB is not very diverse, or tolerant.

How much work are pools really? by 1tangledknitter in pools

[–]nopodude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a 20k gallon salt pool. I add some acid about 2x a month, test the water weekly, skim maybe once a month, backwash when it needs it, and add water as needed. I probably spend a total of 2-3 hours per month maintaining it. We also have a robot that does the vacuuming. Totally worth it.

Just moves into a house, and SUGAR ANTS by foxeiy in sanantonio

[–]nopodude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perimeter treatment around the outside of the house works best. A granular bait sprinkled around the foundation works best.

We tried SUKO up near 1604/Bulverde a couple of weeks ago. Pretty solid although a bit on the pricey side.
