I think on public land it has to have the top covered in orange. Some of them have a cover built in, some don't. I'd look up the rules just to be sure.

It just makes it more difficult to find the actual bargains.

I've killed them with Bengal foggers. I've tried spraying pesticide (Suspend & Bifenthrin) around their entry hole, but fogging was the only thing that worked for me.

How do their courses compare to Baton Rouge Country Club's? I grew up playing there, but really have no frame of reference on how good or bad it was.

Tell us some more about that please, sounds super interesting.
I wonder if parish's can make their own rules or if they would be overrode by state laws. Like could we get Jefferson parish to outlaw it, therefore removing Grand Isle from their list of targets.
Because then you wouldn't have anyone over 70 patronizing your restaurant.

With y'all having that many feeders, you have to be making your own sugar water. What's the best recipe?
What's the purpose of having 2 heater inline like that. Just don't want to run out?

One of the first replies was a link to a Vortex at Temu. I have a hard time believing that Temu sells authentic scopes, but this one was interesting if so:

Landry doesn't care about political suicide because he thinks it can't happen to him. This is evidenced by the way he handles everything that he does. He doesn't even try to hide it anymore.

This is the way. While all my neighbors were spending 15-30k on whole home backups, I spent 4k for a 50amp plug, 13kw electric start tri-fuel, some poly gas tubing, feeder wires, and a soft start.
My generator is all the way at the back of my property, so I don't have to listen to it run, all I have to do to start it is flip a breaker and hit the start button on the remote.

Some of the joneses around me had to take out loans for their setup. Wild.



What brand of 13kw did you get? It seems like the majority of the ones that big are some no name brand. Also, how did you wire in the 50 amp plug to your breaker box?

What I don't understand is if it was profitable before Covid, why is it not profitable now?

There's nothing wrong with eliminating the brass and having a plastic hose barb with stainless clamps. I don't know if they make t-bolt clamps that small but might be worth looking into.
I'm wondering if these deaths are people that waited to long to get treatment. I thought that catching it early was the most important thing.
Maybe the spin cycle on her washing machine in broken and she's putting clothes into the dryer soaking wet?
What accounting software do you use where all you have to do is scan in bank statements?

I would thoroughly coat the wound in that triple antibiotic Neosporin before you put the bandage on. It might help waterproof the wound kind of like Vasoline might do, but with antibiotics. Couldn't hurt.
$149? Someone is a marketing genius if these things actually sell.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a cheaper version for sports with more cushioning?
Check out the Mr. Cool mini-splits if you don't already have the tools to install one. Pre-charged lines make installation pretty easy.
I just fixed my garage freezer for $20. It slowly stopped cooling (20 years old) so I figured it was low on refrigerant. Got a $5 piercing valve and a $10 can of R134a. Watched a youtube video and I'm back in action. I'd try fixing your old one first.
