Victor Mole and Gopher Sonic Spike ~ Review



I was very anxious to receive and try 
The Victor Mole and Gopher Solar Sonic Spike.
I have been having issues with Gophers since last Summer.
I have had the ground for 1 month and so far NO NEW mounds!

The Victor Mole and Gopher Solar Sonic Spike 
was easy as pie to install.
Just push into the ground, the spike is very sturdy.
I located near where I had Gopher activity
making sure the Sun was able to reach it so it would charge.
And who doesn't like solar? 


I have tried so many ways to get these Gophers gone!
Stoked that The Victor Mole and Gopher Sonic Spike works.

 I may have received one or more of the products mentioned above for free or a discounted price. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

No Care Hanging Flower Pot


I wanted some colorful flowers hanging from the deck roof.
Problem is our Summer temps can reach 100* +, so keeping potted plants, 
especially hanging ones, from drying out is difficult. 
Not wanting to spend much if anything, I just used what I had. 

I found an old ugly plastic pot from a previous plant purchase 
and thought I could cover it to make it look better. 

Out comes my hot glue gun and some burlap trim I picked up at 
Dollar Tree last year sometime. I started covering the container
winging it as I went, gluing where needed. 


I started just inside the rim
Then brought the trim over the rim to cover it.



The trim was approx. 4" wide, 
wide enough to cover the inside top and over the rim.


I flipped the pot over to start covering the bottom section. 


I wanted to cover the seam where the pieces of trim met.
I found a similar trim with lace that I  
 hot glued to cover the seam. 


Had my fingers crossed the hole time with both trims,
 hoping I had enough to cover the container.


Burlap covered plastic pot


Next I placed what Styrofoam I had in the bottom
and started adding all the faux flowers inserting them into the Styrofoam


Sticking the taller ones in the center 


and shorter ones around the sides


I used S hooks to grab the rim, 
then added chain to hang it


Not bad for just using what I had
Didn't spend a penny 
and this will need no watering during our hot Summer!
