    Hello Victoria, I cannot tell you exactly how much it costs /sf to install foam but I can tell ...»
    you confidently that you will see significant savings in your electric bill. If your are considering this for your attic, I suggest blown in insulation since it us a better option for the nooks and cranny's of a basement. Along with this if you also check and fix drafty windows it will help bring down the cost. These homeimprovements cost upfront but is a worthwhile decision.

    gardening in Georgia. The blackspot can become immune to a fungicide. Therefore it is best to use one fungicide for only two or three consecutive sprayings, Then alternate with a different one that also id labeled to treat blackspot. I start the season by raking up and discarding the mulch and any leaf debris from my rose beds/gardens. Then I use Bayer 3 in 1 rose liquid or granular. At the first sight of the dreaded blackspot I start spraying every 7-10 days.. I have beaten the blackspot and the Japanese beetles, but not the 100 year rain that we had almost every day last year. About 20 of my roses "drowned". I have mostly antique roses and hybrid teas and all 50 or so are thriving . You can also give your roses in spring and summer a concoction of Epsom salts, chelated iron, bbloom booster and fish emulsion for the most spetacular blooms in your neighborhood. I am going to try Walter's suggestion of the Bonide Infuse this year.
