Will probably need to get the MK4 trap. You are correct Notch7. I know. Just a slip. So annoyed by those critters.

Hi. I discovered there are rats in the garden attracted by my compost bin. They are smart. I am thinking of going beyond traps and poisons. My electricity is 240 V. I consider using suitable size pieces of board with mesh wire on top. Placing those about 50 mm apart. Then connect positive to...

Okay. Gravel boards. Never thought of that. Thanks.

I want to use pressure treated fencing (durability) and concrete posts. As it will be adjacent to the existing fence I will need to use fence panels. Best advice, please. (This will indicate the type of fellow he is). Some years ago there was a pumpkin vine growing from his side through the...

Many thanks for your help. Only problem, won't be able to speak to him. Easily the most ignorant person I ever came across. Wrote him a simple 'letter of explanation' recently. The neighbours could hear him screaming/shouting from the furthest ends of the street. I merely asked him why...

Hello guys. Going into my house from the front, the left hand boundary fence is my neighbour's, including the garden fence as well. His fence is of the chain link type. That encroaches on my privacy. I have considered putting up a wooden fence to the maximum allowed height of 2 metres. It...

Hello guys. I am setting up a CCTV system. I have a Sony Xperia E1 on PAYGO, which is Android. I will need to get a new phone to monitor it away from home. Your expert advise will be much appreciated, as I have never done this before. I am guessing an iPhone will be better, but if so, I have...

Many thanks to you all for your information.

Hello guys. I am about to buy a CCTV kit. One of the cameras will be about 36 to 40 metres from the VDR. Can anyone tell me the maximum length allowed from camera to VDR, please. Thank you

Hello. I have been trying to open the battery compartment on my Medion TV, remote control RC1823, although it looks simple enough to do I attach photos. Any ideas, please ?. Thank you.

Thank you all. The machine is fine. The error using it is because the Control Panel, and some programme settings, are different from another AEG machine being used elsewhere.

Hello guys. I have an AEG Washer/Dryer Model L8WEC166R. It is stated to have a 'quick wash' programme, but I am not able to figure that out. Any advice, please. Thank you.

Hello guys. For loading, I need to calculate the weight of 10 mm mortar in a course of bricks/blocks. Can anyone advise me on that, please. Thank you.

Hinge is in the rebate. Frame has not moved. Internal door, cannot swell. Yes, only two hinges, Ok for this door. I will try the cardboard. Prior to me doing anything, it would close, but only by holding the handle and lifting the door into the closed position. That is how I knew screws were...

Hi. All screws were loose on the 'door side' of both door hinges. I secured the top screws and the door closed as normal. I then secured the bottom hinge screws. When closing the door this time, it butted against the door jamb as shown in the photo. I am um uncertain if the hinge needs to...

Thanks to everyone for advice. I bought one of the Log Periodic aerials, Labgear. Works perfectly. I mounted it on a leftover piece of 32 mm white waste pipe, just stick it behind the TV. Blends in well with the background..

I know where the blockage is. It is as shown in the attachment in my post. Plunging did not work. Did not try mop/plastic bag. I will try that next. Just been reading about toilet augers.

Hello guys. This toilet is blocked between the WC pan and the soil stack. A very difficult one. Managed to clear others before, but this one seems to need a Jack Hammer. Caustic soda and sulphuric acid (at different times) has not worked. If water is left at a high level, it will eventually...

The router is on 1st Floor with one Tv. The new Tv is on Ground Floor. From your very detailed info, it seems I might just have to get an indoor aerial. Thank you.
