We have the little ones but also some that get up to about 2.5 inches. If its like the SW the little ones sting worse than the big ones. I get about ten a year inside, live, dead, or trapped. Most are small but not all. They come right through slab to foundation joints in some cases.
I am told that to have zero since the subgrade wasn’t pre-treated we would have to treat to a level that we wouldn’t desire.
The builder said this would be an invitation to critters so the area was thoroughly bombed with insecticide. A pair of 4 inch pvc pipes carry rain water from the back hillside around the house, exiting on the other side of the front driveway.
Good design. This small place was built in the 90s. I bought it to use when I was building at the Fort. We still come down here a lot.
That pessimism escapes me. Obama's support is collapsing. Bill Galston, a Clintonista, analyzed two recent Gallup and Pew polls on the first link. He calls a tie. IMHO, Gallup and Pew polls are skewed to the left.
New Evidence That 2008 Was a Major Aberration for Democrats
Academic model: Romney will take 52.9% of the vote, 320 electoral votes
PING!
We just need to win. Overcoming the cheating that going to be done in black inner city neighborhoods will be tricky enough without having to worry about a ‘huge difference’...
Unfortunately, the solution must go deeper than simply replacing this arrogant ideologue. The present and future abuses of the Obama presidency are only manifestations of a national government which began expanding far beyond its original constitutional bounds long before Barack H. Obama came to the White House. At the foundation of the federal leviathan is Supreme Court decisions since 1937 which have stripped away the Constitution’s limits on federal power. We can only hope to be permanently free of this or future administrations of its ilk when we restore the original limits on the national government. Given how entrenched that Supreme Court jurisprudence is, and the leftist judges Obama has already appointed, this can only be done by constitutional amendments restating those original constitutional understandings.
