Creeping charlie has murdered my yard this year and I am ready to start over. I am planning on tilling my entire yard and laying sod, however I am very concerned that the charlie may grow back, as I tilled entire areas last year and reseeded, however it grew back in the exact same places. Will the charlie grow right through the sod, and if so what can I do to prevent it?

I am looking to get a carpet cleaner/shampooer as we have a puppy that has had a few poop accidents on the stairs, but I also want something that can clean an entire area as well. However, most full size units are to big/wide for stairs. Is there something that can accomplish both?

I confirmed mold in a bedroom using a mold armor test from Home Depot. I still do not know the source of the mold however as there is no physical appearance of mold, only detected via the air. Can I submit an insurance claim for mold remediation without knowing the source? Or do I need to confirm the source of the mold to determine if it will be covered?

I have a very musty smell in 2 closets and a single room in my home. I have no idea what could be causing the smell. It is not an issue with moisture or humidity, and we have even emptied the closets and the smell remains.

Should I call a mold remediation company, or is there a different type of company that can search for the source of bad smells?

The Zoom 65 is scratching an itch I've had for some time since I bought my first tofu: a 65% gasket mount aluminum keyboard with a knob and a WIRELESS PCB. I was so excited I bought two. The question is, are there any more high quality boards coming out that fit this criteria? I'm hoping this starts a trend where wireless is more common.

Ordered 2 Zoom65 essentials kits from Cannonkeys, and wanted to ensure I know where they provide all of their updates. There is a page on their website dedicated to all active group buys, but with just a quick note on status: (Example: The Zoom65 update simply says "Order Placed"). Do they provide any additional updates via other methods like email or is this the only place where I can look to see where things stand?

Apparently, I chose the wrong option when filing my taxes through TaxAct, where I chose to pay at a later date. I owe around $600 federal, but I have no idea if I will owe any interest or anything of that nature, and I am very nervous about owing the IRS money and not knowing about it. Is there any way to get confirmation as to how much interest I may owe?

I did my taxes through TaxAct and provided my credit card information upon completion. I received notice that my federal return had been accepted. It also said the following:

You have elected to pay the IRS through VPS at a later time

I don't know what this means nor did I choose to pay at a separate time. How can I ensure that my taxes are paid and that I don't get in trouble for this?

I have two sets of hedges in front of my house that should be about 7 feet tall, but we've let them grow to 11 or 12. I want to cut them back to a reasonable size, however I am running into problems:

  • I have what I perceived to be the right tool for the job, hedge trimmers from Sun Joe that has a telescopic pole. However, this tool isn't strong enough to cut through the thick branches.
  • I therefore figure I need a chainsaw to perform this activity, however that seems quite precarious as I need to be on a ladder, and these hedges are also about 6 feet deep as well.

What can I do to get these things cut to size that won't be dangerous? The hedge is some sort of Laurel, btw.

Our crape myrtle tree is starting to bloom a bit but we have not cut it back this year. Is it too late to do so since it's blooming? I don't want to cause long term damage to the tree.

I am looking for a web based software to plan my HT setup, which is a bit complicated as I have 3 TVs. Is there something that exists already that is specifically for HT setups?

Every bit of tile in my 15 year old house sucks. 3 bathrooms and a kitchen floor all need to be replaced and I really would like to take this project on over the period of a couple years. Is there a best practice for learning how to tile outside of just watching youtube videos? The savings would be immense if I can learn this myself, and the new skillset would be super valuable if we ever move again.
