crack in soil - cause and solution sought #882961

Asked August 26, 2024, 7:59 AM EDT

Hi, Almost 20 years ago, we installed a stone wall at the edge of our property. A crack has developed and I'm seeking a probable cause and a solution. I'm thinking that the soil has decomposed over time and the recent lack of rain has revealed this. I appreciate your help with trying to resolve and remediate this. Thank you!

Termites? #882954

Asked August 26, 2024, 1:25 AM EDT

This afternoon we noticed several groupings of tiny white/cream insects - some with wings, some without - on our front patio. We also noticed a couple of larger darker winged insects in the same area. Are they termites that will need pest control?

Multnomah County Oregon

Disposing of Diseased Port Orford #882953

Asked August 25, 2024, 11:59 PM EDT

We're quite sure our Port Orford Cedar has died because of the root disease that's so rampant here in Oregon. We're concerned about the best way to dispose of the wood so it won't spread the disease. Most of what we've read about the disease says it spreads through the soil but could it be that if the wood gets chipped or is resting on the ground for any amount of time it would be passing disease into the soil? What's the best way to dispose of or use the wood? Thank you!
