Help Steve Dave Build A House (NOW HELP HIM TAKE CARE OF IT)

[sys]

Sys, can snakes climb stairs?

yeah.

[Katpappy]

They can climb trees, my son.

Glue traps solved the problem for me and then I just left them down there to make sure it was solved (mine seemed like a one-time thing).  Mouse traps were pretty worthless.

I have those alligator traps and am catching the crap out of them. I'd rather them die quick than get stuck and starve or have to hit them with a hammer. I was pretty nervous early on. One of the traps was just missing. We looked everywhere and it was just gone. I thought we had a big one or a rat so I bought a big rat trap. Turns out it was just a little one that got caught by the foot and he dragged it in between some boxes. Poor little guy. I did hope that his screams for help would ward off his friends and family, but I caught another one a day later.

If you're willing to genocide an entire community of mice for the sake of the quiet enjoyment of your abode, just own your barbarous acts. No need to feign sympathy.

Only if you promise to keep her or get rid of her.

So... piggybacking on another SD thread.  Thinking of doing one of these at the farm for get away weekends and eventual move there after retiring.  Thoughts?

What are the advantages over a regular house

[Spracne]

I built one of those in the Epilogue part of RDR2.

[star seed 7]

Spoiler alert

[8manpick]

Found this in the basement utility room today. How screwed am I? Burn the house down and start over?

['taterblast]

whaaat the fuuuuck is that man

[Spracne]

What's above that?

[OB_Won]

What's above that?

If toilet Then
     burn down house
Else
     repair
End If

Not directly, but not far off. Probably 5 feet from bathroom above

[ben ji]

Pretty sure an alien was just birthed into your basement.

I mean, you can see all the copper pipes running up into that area. You got a bad leak, brah. It's concerning that it's right next to electrical. I'd spend some coin to have a pro investigate.

[schreds21]

Not 100% sure that vent for the hot water heater is exactly legal either.   Could be wrong though.

[yoga-like_abana]

If you cut that out yourself I would definitely wear a good mask. I'd bet that copper pipe has a pinhole leak in it.

Help me out, Spracs.  I don't speak fluent goEMAW.

No worries. It's a niche reference to a video game called Red Dead Redemption 2 that I know some of our residents have played.

I think we’re going to put a mini-split in the garage.

I’ve been on the fence about this one as well

We just ran 220V & Mrs. Hamburg got a lathe. We have an oversized 3 car garage & we’re reorganizing the 3rd bay around the lathe. I’m pretty excited about the mini-split.
