Drilling

  • To install screws in plasterboard wall - use drill and plastic plugs. Ribbed barrel plugs are simple to get and work best. Make sure you drill more than the length of the screw so the plug will fit; if you didnt drill deep enough you can't just hammer the plug in.

When all fails use a hammer and hit it.

And who needs escutcheons. Bah. Throw it away so you wont have to drill more little holes for your door. So what if it looks like a dog chewed up your door. If it is aligned and it locks ITS GOOD ENOUGH.

Fixing a hole in the wall

You must lower your expectations drastically: you will never be able to fill it satisfactorily flat with plaster. Tell your friends that the marzipan look is really in for home decor right now.

Rats & Mice

To install rats in house: cook vast quantities of food and forget to wash up for a week.

To uninstall rats, plug all holes with STEEL WOOL and then plaster over on both sides of hole if possible. Also stop leaving supper out in the kitchn overnight.

Electronic sound repellers do not work. Neither will poison. The only thing that will work is GLUE. When you finally get sick of finding baby mice in the toaster, put rat glue on some drawing block and watch the mice accumulate on the sticker of doom.
