I would recommend a knee wall of you have an ankle biter, and especially in Illinois where you can get some hefty snowfalls too.

You gotta love the random drunk dancing (although I wish he would have kept his shirt on). It always keeps things entertaining.

Attention to detail is incredible. Certainly went the extra mile. What are your thoughts on mixing different brands and they’re merchandise? I think the differences can tie a man cave together. I am currently working on a 1966 Batmobile replicar for the ultimate bat cave man cave.

Completely agree, we can’t control a lot of the external factors that affect fuel costs, but this is one factor we can control. Let’s all do our part and recycle!

Comment on Greenhouse Construction – Harbor Freight 10×12 Greenhouse by Patrick Ryan

I need some replacement glass for a greenhouse – some of the panels are curved others are not. I can sent pictures/sizes if needed. I’d like to get some pricing. The greenhouse is attached to my house and it would be nice to get it back in shape. (We just bought the house w/ it.)

Thanks!

I live in West Virginia also and my back yard was covered they are all over the side of the house, outbuildings, and trees! They did’nt bother me outside but now that it’s getting cold outside they are trying to take over my house! Today when I was cleaning them out of my windows I found eggs attatched to my shades so they will multiply inside!!! I will definetly try the soap! Thanks everyone for the info! Tired of having the CRITTERS crawling on me I think they migrate towards body heat too!!!!

I just moved into an apartment in southern Ontario, and these beetles were making themselves quite at home inside. They have their own secret entrance or something. I was going around the place like a madperson trying to get them all with a tissue.

Anyways I stumbled on this site while searching for the name of the things.
I immediately tried the soap solution (i just squeezed some foam from my dish sponge onto one) and watched in shock and amazement as the thing actually suffocated. Could see bubbles forming on it’s side where it breathes,I felt kinda bad.

Thanks so much for the tip! Much appreciated!
