Phorid flies
I have these little pests in my bathroom window and they sound like the phorid flies. I have sprayed them with bug spray and my window sill will be full of dead ones but they always seem to come back. Should I spray the outside of the window or how do I get rid of them?

Is cedar wood harmful for chicks?
I have purchased some baby chicks and ducks, and we are looking into buying a coop for them. However, I have been reading different articles that say they cannot be around cedar wood. Is this a fact or fiction? We really liked one particular cedar house and know how well cedar stands up to weather, but if it will hurt them, we do not want to jeopardize their lives.

Cutting tree root?
I have a huge poplar in my yard, and we're installing a french drain. The drain is going by the poplar, and we have run into a huge root about 8 feet from the base of the poplar. Is it safe to cut that root? We definitely don't want to damage the tree (if it fell, it would completely destroy our house), so if we need to, we can just dig deeper and go under the root, but, obviously, cutting it would be easier if there isn't fear of hurting/killing the tree. Thank you!
