10/18/23: Weeds growing in the landscaping and taking over for the most part.10/18/23: The water main valve is to remain on automatic pool filter. I walked the home twice to make sure that all of the faucets and toilets were not running since the water main valve is to remain in the on position for the automatic pool filler. There are no new deep holes in the yard that I could see. There are a few slight spots of digging in the yard, probably an armadillo, reported previously.

10/18/23: I poured vinegar down the HVAC condensation evac tube and then chased it with water. I poured a few ounces of bleach in each toilet. One of the gallons of water that was stored underneath the right side sink in the master bathroom has leaked over the past two weeks. I pulled everything out and dried everything up as best I could however, the rolls of toilet paper was so saturated I felt it just better to get rid of rather than run the risk of there being mold, so I took that with me to throw away. I left the doors open. What little is there should dry up and it doesn’t look like there’s any real cabinet damage.

Will be pouring 8ozs of Nuline down the ac condensate drain line every 90 days for preventative maintenance if applicable. The humidity level was still slightly over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence from the ac not turning on enough throughout the day due to lower outside temperatures. I lowered the thermostat to 71 for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Checked all damp rid buckets.
