Lol appreciate you for so eloquently throwing in commy bashing in your vid’s. Can’t wait to move to the area, and definitely plan on asking your team for help when it’s that time.
This is an excellent video, Isaac. 👍👍👍 I'm going to share this video with my family and see if they start shaking in their boots. 😁 As someone who honestly worked on real environmental issues in the past, I can tell you a lot about some of the nonsense and myths. It's a bit much to go into here, so the next time I talk to you, we can get to the truth of it all. Of all the things you talked about, radon does concern me. I know that it can be dealt with pretty economically and isn't a cause for panic. Would you please tell me if any of the new home builders are installing radon mitigation systems in their new construction and if it's an option for new home buyers? If not, what would happen if after a new home is built and buyers have the home tested and find elevated levels of radon? How would builders respond? Do you have any experience with this kind of situation?
Haha you'll have to let me know what they think. To my knowledge, there aren't any builders in the area that would include it standard in their homes. As far as testing for radon this is something that would be carried out alongside your normal home inspection during the purchase process. This is something I would have to look into more as I'm not sure how different builders would respond to this
On the topic of black widows, people always exaggerate the potency of their venom. Yes, their venom is 15x deadlier than a rattlesnake by volume, however, they are not aggressive and you basically have to try to get them to bite you, plus the amount that is injected in an average bite is so small, that for many people, their symptoms will just be irritation, headaches, maybe some muscle pain. People who have really bad reactions to their venom typically fall in one of two categories: they’re either very allergic to it, or they don’t take care of the bite properly and an infection sets in, which tends to lead to necrosis. Most people aren’t allergic so for the majority of us, if you get bitten, clean the bite area regularly and you’ll be absolutely fine within a few days. It’s also important to note that not a single person has died from a black widow bite in literally decades. Since the 80’s I believe. So although they definitely need to be respected, there is no reason to fear them or kill them on site. They rarely venture into areas where interaction with humans is likely, and they are amazing pest control to have around the house either way.
Planning on taking a look at Osprey Estates, Nampa this summer. I know you fish. Is indian creek the closest trout stream? I have heard its dry in the winter in that area. And the Snake seems to be just warm water fish. Thanks for the input.
I have actually been in Osprey Estates all this week. I have some relocation clients who are interested in it right now. The Indian Creek I Kuna does go dry during the winter however because of the many tributaries it actually flows through Caldwell and Nampa year round. The Boise river is very popular for fly fisherman trying to catch any cold water fish. When fish and game has excess farm steelhead or salmon they will put them in the Boise river for folks to catch. Lots of people like to go up stream on the Boise river to lucky peak to fish for Kokanee.
Yes they do it looks like they have stocked around 6-700 trout this year so far. There are also many other local streams that have a natural and stocked population of rainbow trout. Wilson creek runs through south Nampa along the green belt and it has trout in it
There are also several ponds in Caldwell that are stocked very frequently throughout the nicer weather. Fish and game likes to favor ponds with stocking because they are more easily accessible for people

If I wasn't thinking of moving back before I am now.
Welcome! Thanks for the support

@@Topidahorealestate .....thx! Do they stock Indian Creek around Caldwell?
