Step 1. Allow the pampas grass to discolor over the winter months. The natural death of the leaves provides some texture in fall and winter landscape. To limit tipping of the heavy blades, tie twine around the entire plant at 6-inch intervals to keep the grass clump upright.
Rising damp is the common term for the slow upward movement of water in the lower sections of walls and other ground-supported structures by capillary action. Although rising damp of up to 5 metres in height has been observed the height of rise is typically much lower and is rarely above 1.5m.Rising damp has been a widely observed phenomenon for at least two hundred years.lthough rising damp of up to 5 metres in height has been observed the height of rise is typically much lower and is rarely above 1.5m.

Too much humidity in your home or place of business can cause excessive moisture to collect on windows and other cold surfaces during the winter months. During the summer month, humidity can pretty much get into everything if your home. Damp areas are ideal growing spots for mold. Since mold feeds on any organic material, burrowing deeper and deeper, your best bet is to keep humidity under control. Most experts agree that humidity levels should not exceed 55% during summer months (ideally between 35-40%). However, during the winter months, when temperatures dip below freezing the ideal target number changes the cooler it gets. Experts say it is nearly impossible to remove all mold spores from the air.
