Plans For Sheds

I had posted a question about Garden snakes but after looking at pictures of snakes I realized the snake I am talking about is not a garden. It is a garter. I also measured the skin it left behind after its shed and the thing is over 24 inches long. It lives under our porch (which is made of cement) so I have not seen it. However I have his skin so I know he is there. I want to kill this thing or at least scare him off my property. The people we got the house from said snakes have been a big problem here. We keep our grass short, and we have an exterminator come out to spray but he didn’t do anything for snakes. Any ideas on how to kill this thing?

Ny bf’s backyard is mostly a patio. with a small shed & a little pond. We are planning to go back there and fix it up but, weeds and grass are between the "spaces" on the deck. He’s afraid if we clean it all up it will just all grow back, but I’m sure there is some kind of spray or something we could place out there to prevent that. Any suggestions?

Ours has lots of muddy patches and moss etc. When we moved in it was lush! But….we put up a new shed and did lots of work in the garden. It did damage some of the lawn. My partner has today, laid down some weed killer and grass treatment. Nxt week he is putting down new lawn seed. Is this the best way? and can anyone suggest a technique?

we need a shed for our lawn mower and gardening tools. We have a lot to water in our yard so I’m a little concerned about a wood shed rotting too fast. We dont like the look of metal sheds but wouldn’t mind a plastic shed. What kind do you think is best?
Well the water isn’t necessarily in the dirt, its when we water our yard. we have to water quite a bit to keep our grass alive during the warm seasons so I am worried about the sprinkler water over time. We water every day, sometimes twice a day…

i am moving house and found one that would be perfect, except for one thing. the garden has a vERY small patio area, a shed and then a stoned parking area. the road is too busy to park on it, so i’d need the space. but i have a 9 month old daughter, would grass be essential for her next summer? we currently live in a house with two very large lawns, but don’t really use them!
