I tried the zapper, traps, poison, heavy screens (which I hated, as they were a pain plus blocked both view and breeze), plus the rats eventually chew...

If you want personal enrichment at the expense of the state, why not use the library?

Thanks Alana, I checked K-Mart's web site and they do carry them so we'll check for them here.

I'm not in the water quite as much as A&A, but I used to see more Olewife/Queen Triggerfish, now I hardly ever see them. IMHO they've definitely been...

If you are ready for a LOT of DIY time, and materials cost, there are some salvage boats available . . . it is not for the faint-hearted but I have ju...

Something else our vet recommended was alternating Revolution and Frontline, every two weeks. Since they are different chemicals, he considered it sa...

My husband and I moved to STT with two large dogs. It *was* a challenge, but not impossible to find an apartment rental. As you may already know, mo...
