Q:My parents talked to this guy from Express Home Solutions that's based in Garden City, NY about help with modifying their home loan and such. They wanted me to research the company to make sure it wasn't any kind of scam set up before they did anything with them, but I can't find much. There seems to be another company with the same name out of Texas, but I don't know if they're the same people. Has anyone dealt with this company or heard anything about them? Any help would be great! Thanks.

I don't know anything about this company but when I Googled the name, the first site that comes up is Rip off report so I'd be leary. There are many scam companies out there right now who will take the money up front not do much for it. Your parents don't need to hire anyone to help modify their mortgage. It can be time-consuming because so many people are looking for modifications that the lenders are overwhelmed. Have your parents start here: makinghomeaffordable / You will see the warning right on the front page about these types of companies. Good luck to your folks.

Q:Home Garden gt; Decorating Remodeling

Do they have a cat door? I suppose we could use a window...I mean to put my pet rabbit Spooky in for about 10 mins or so...He would ruin all their electrical cords and demolish anything he could reach in that time. We will lure him out with his favourite treat and when your neighbours arrive home, only Spooky will know what REALLY happened. And even though he is a smart rabbit, he cannot talk ...yet.

Q:Do homes in Thailand have gardens? What style? English? French? Balinese?

Ours has Mango trees, flowers, a sort of moat around the outside (in part of which which we keep fish (to catch and cook fresh)) and in which there are also lotus flowers. The garden also has half a dozen or so massive Thai water jars. The garden also has a spirit house (for religious reasons) and a dog house (for dog reasons). From what others have written I guess this qualifies as Thai style. I'm not sure why we have the water jars - This page says that the water jars are about the quintessential role of water in Thai life so that must be it, we have a have them because its quintessentially Thai: www.thaigirl.in.th/article.php/Wa...

Q:I am designing an indoor garden. It will be located in a glass sunroom/conservatory. Unfortunately, most of the books about indoor gardening are about growing plants in pots. I want to create an ACTUAL indoor garden -- lavender, jasmine, ferns, irises -- planted in soil beds. What I want to know is:1. Whether there are any books or websites on the subject.2. Whether the plants I've mentioned would grow in good indoor conditions, and any other plant suggestions (preferably plants with flowers!)

You do not say where you live,so you may need to do some of this research virtually: The Brooklyn Botanic Garden has had gardens under glass for decades (100yrs?) Also look at Longwood Gardens= also extensive indoor gardens for eons. Doris Duke's home -ditto check the butterfly house at the Baltimore Acquarium Also, there is a long tradition of indoor gardens in England- they grew everything and there are lots of books on these. As far as the plants you name, jasmine, ferns- absolutely no problem- they are in every glass house I've ever been The essentials for most lavenders is poor soil, relatively dry, lots of light. I have grown all of these indoors, just home garden- windowsill or plant lights The iris I grow are the tall bearded - delicious fragrance-like candy- I would think with enough light and dark, they should grow well. With flowers: name it: roses if you have the room or are willing to work at the pruning (we have grown roses in a bed i brick high on concrete!! The rose has thrived for 50 years! Lilies, marigolds, zinnias, cosmos, bulbs: hyacinth, daffodil, crocus etc IF you have a cold frame to give these a winter conditioning; salvias-the flowering decent kind, The list is virtually endless, depending on the climate conditions you are going to create: temperature, humidity, direction the space faces, number of hours of daily sun. One crucial factor is air circulation; a ceiling fan may be enough, depending on how much natural ventilation there is in the space. Also, consider using plant lights to help meet your light conditions if there is a plant you really want to grow that needs more that the available light. Catalog your conditions, and then compare these to the needs of plants you like Sites: the victory garden is reliable as will be your state cooperative extension assoc. {the spots you can't see on this response is me drooling over the opportunity you have. Hope you have a grand adventure.}

Q:WHAT ARE HOME REMIDIES FOR KILLING GRUBS IN YOUR VEGTABLE GARDEN

Beware of any home remedy used in a vegetable garden. The cure may be worse than the disease. I have seen some crazy things on this website which should not EVER be used on edible crops. I'd recommend that you learn to live with them unless you can specifically identify them as doing damage to your plants. In all likelihood they are not harming anything. You should squish them when you find them. Beware of home remedies in vegetable gardens and on any edible plant....and PLEASE use spell check. Bug Doc
