Hello!I purchased a house a few years ago, the folks who lived her before did not really maintain their backyard and I noticed this 'darn' bush that I can't cut down, can't dig up can't get rid of.A friend of mine recently identified it as japanese knotweed. I've read up on it as being a highly invasive and destructive plant. I was wondering if anyone here has experience with this 'weed' and can give me a good guide as to how to eliminate this 'weed' and reclaim an entire corner of my backyard!Thanks!!!
Trust me. :O I had the same problem. You can try putting a dryer sheet in them so they might smell good. But if you wear them a few times the smell will wear off eventually.
To mellow some of your anxiety, try to get out on some dirt roads (possibly muddy and wet, but not to the point where you get stuck) and see how the electronic VSC works. It is weird when it kicks in and you're not used to it. It actually sometimes makes some people freak and can cause loss of control. Electronic Vehicle Stability Control is something every owner should be familiar with. It controls and brakes the rear wheels when traction is lost. As the other guy posted, I think you'll be just fine with winter tires. Everyone in northern states does not have 4-wheel drive. Good idea about the kitty litter. Watch that understeer.
