    Ants in the house

    Clicky these traps always work for me. Boric acid that they take back to the nest for you. Like the jamjar trick but no neet to follow the little buggers about. I have also done the jamjar trick but with a small pile of sugar. Someone told me to use Diet coke on the nest, never tried it...

    no sugar ?

    oh and if anyone is interested in bee keeping you can pop down to a local meeting and they will have spare suits and loads of hives you can have a look in. It can be quite a shock to have 70,000 bees flying around you while you look at the hive. If you do want to continue you can join up and...

    One for the Chemistry boffins... CO2 states

    you beat me to the PV=nRT so basically P pressure = (number of moles of gas * 8.31* * temp in degees) / Volume the gas takes up The number of moles is basically mass of the gas in grams / 44 so if you have 2kg in a 5l container at 22 degrees room temp it will be 2000/44 moles which goes to...

    T.bag thief at work...

    there used to be an pH indicator you could buy over the counter in chemists called Phenolphalein (sp?) its nickname in university was the elephant laxative for obvious reasons, but as an indicator it is colourless in anything less than about pH 10 (pretty strong alkoline) a couple of drops in...
