A few questions about heat treatment (hot car) for killing clothing moths

Referencing MuseumPests.org I am planning to treat a few non-fragile items that were in a moth infested space. I plan to wrap them according to the "Solar bagging" method and then put inside of a hot car.

The website doesn't mention the temperature it needs to reach or the length to apply the heat treatment to completely kills moths/eggs. Does anybody definitively know this information?

Thank you!

Tips on "wild harvesting" and potting small pine trees? (NH USA)

I have about an acre of wooded land on my property with a lot of small new growth pine trees (under 3 feet). I'd like to dig a few up, pot them, and use them as part of the landscaping in the front of my house.

Does anybody have experience with this? Any tips to successfully do this without killing the tree? Thanks!

Question about 40v Mower Battery Conpatibilty

I have a slightly older model 40v 20in brushless mower that came with a 6ah 40v battery (OP40602) and I have two newer 40v 4ah batteries (OP40404) that came with a leaf blower and weed whacker.

Can the newer 4ah batteries safely be used with the mower?

Unfortunately the sticker with the model number for the mower has a rip right on the model so I am unsure what it is.

Thank you

I lived in Portsmouth several years ago. I remember that there were only specific things that were "resident only" and on their website it also lists that. I don't see anything on the website about it being for residents only or that a sticker or permit is required.

Are parts of the center open to any NH residents? Just curious. Need to throw away some things and my local dump is closed during the week. Thanks

*I've tried calling them during business hours to ask but have never had anyone pick up

Everything I’ve read says my TV supports gaming hub but in the newest firmware I don’t see it. Could I be missing something or is my tv not supported? Thanks

I got a basic Nikon F adapter to use manual focus AIS lenses with my X-T4. After installing a lens I can now hear a noticeable (but low) constant hum noise, almost sounds like a fan noise. Is this normal or is something wrong? Is there something with image stabilization or something I need to turn off when using lenses like this? Thanks

Looking at PDF scans of books on Internet Archives from museums and on the site they are extremely high-res when I zoom in. When I download the PDF the pages are extremely "muddy" (not sure how to explain it).

Anyway, how do I get the highest res downloads? I spoke to the museum who uploaded the material and it is all public domain CC. I understand I might have to download each page individually but even right clicking save-as they are not as high-res as when viewing on the site.

Thanks!
