Water always wins. Keep it away from the foundation.

Water is the strongest solvent in the world .
Get it away from the foundation.
It is slow and methodical and just keeps on dissolving what it runs over .
Look at Grand Canyon all done by water over many years .
It is our friend but also our biggest enemy on home Inspections .
No water no plants .
No water no mould.
Water in wrong place can destroy the home .

Too Bad Marcel we missed out again .
We should be the ones selling these things and would not have to work.

I think we are too honest and do not wish to rip people off .
Gosh it sure is good to be honest .

Hi. Roy; hopoe you are fine.

I have always said, that if you can think of something and improve on it, or devise a new product, someone has already invented it.

Ooooooops. I was so impressed with the product that I ordered two dozen before reading the rest of the posts in this thread. Should I cancel my order? Darn margaritas.
