RE: Random Photos and Heat
smithlabs! are you one who says that the foundation should be sprayed down with water everyday? what does that do? in laymen/redneck terms.
thanks sir about the photos, I work hard to get those dang birds and they can see me coming a mile away even inside the house! no coyotes ever gonna get them suckers.
Not unless he uses Acme traps, ROFLOL!
Yes, but the clay, not the foundation, so run a soaker hose around your house, and run it at night so it soaks in. You can even use wheat straw mulch around your house to hold the water, and to compose later. If the clay does not dry out, no cracks; in the clay or the building....
:)That’s actually a really good idea. You would need to get that clay wet as soon as possible and keep it that way, otherwise when it gets dry and solid, the water runs right off. @janton do you get flash floods when it rains?
yes Ma'am Texas, at least this area floods at the smallest rains, never seen anything like it! soil can't absorb the rain. we're out in the country on a higher level so it doesn't affect us though.
That is true, a soaker hose delivers it slow enough it mostly stays. Any run off is wasted, but filling the cracks will all soak in, and help jump start the recovery!
:Dok thank you sir!
Any time I can be of help!
:)Stay safe!
