    Mosquitoes - oil on water to kill them

    Well, on an unrelated note, I've learned that the Mosquito dunks don't seem to kill CPs. Thats great! I've never bothered asking or trying them before, I've just changed the container water...but this is good to know. But as for the Vegetable Oil, the container itself is a half-oak barrel thats...

    Mosquitoes - oil on water to kill them

    I don't suppose its possible for Vegetable Oil to burn somehow..? That was my first idea, but I've sorta ruled it out. But I do have some flameable goodies laying around that I could add to the surface of the water to kick start it... If anything, I've got floating candles that I could leave...

    Mosquitoes - oil on water to kill them

    Hey all, I had a small water garden that I've been in the process of replacing with a newer one. During the whole switch over, some mosquitoes got in the garden and lacking fish, I figured I'd just pour some Vegetable Oil on the water cause I knew that would kill them off. Well, it did the...

    I may lose all my plants

    So...do we have an outcome? I scanned the posts but the thread has ballooned to 14 pages worth, so I'm not sure if I missed it. I assumed the court date was Tuesday the 22nd, but I've seen no victory posts as of yet. Keep us updated, Ozzy!

    Wisconsin church shooting

    Lol, actually yes, the quoted reply is on topic for a previous post. It was regarding the show, Mythbusters, on the discover channel. The episode was trying to verify/disprove the myth that talking to your plants help them to grow. In this case, they had positive recordings play(ie, "Nice...

    Wisconsin church shooting

    Umm...since when did being a Wiccan make you a religious fanatic? And I hope you're not relating the two terms, Satanic and Wiccan, because they are two very opposite and distinctive beliefs. Wicca has nothing to do with Satanism. But aside from that, based on what Wiccans believe in they're...

    Wisconsin church shooting

    Didn't that experiment break down half-way through though? If I remember correctly, the watering system stopped working on one of the test batches. Or something like that....I just seem to recall that there was a problem.

    Wisconsin church shooting

    On and odd and sorta similar note, I have a relative in Georgia(though I always forget exactly what city) where you are required to carry a own and carry a gun if you're over 18. Needless to say, there is basically no crime from the residents ;) Now for the out-of-towners who are passing...

    Wisconsin church shooting

    Well...this is definately an odd bit of information gathered by the good folks over at Metafilter. There was a shooting this past Saturday in a Wisconsin church, which unfortunately resulted in eight people being killed(More info ). As the above link describes, one of the Metafilter readers...

    Lil_baby_sundews:d

    I'd say just leave them alone for the time being. I always have tons of little sundews popping up, half the time when the plant isnt even flowering....I really dont quite understand it, but I dont complain! Just let them grow for awhile, and once it gets big enough you can try to transplant it...

    My free tv set arrived!

    Honestly, I'm not sure either. I personally haven't noticed an increase in spam, but for safety sakes, I registered using an e-mail which is my spam-collector/public e-mail. But I really haven't seen an increase. Whether that will change remains to be seen. But honestly, I dont mind. I've...
