In Reply to: Black Cable Tie Tweak redux posted by geoffkait on December 24, 2012 at 05:38:49:
Downspouts in New Zealand are usually made from plastic (PVC) and not metal (which your post seems to assume.) They also extend into the earth on many homes, with underground exit pipes, and rural venues usually have these feeding into a water collection tank somewhere.
Given all that, and what you claim to know of the reasons for this tweak's alleged efficacy, is there any applicability down under in the aforementioned circumstances?
And for those of us sans 14" (350mm) black cable ties, will white work just as well? Yellow? Blue? And can they be daisy-chained if not of sufficient length as singles? Is the exact length critical? Trim off the excess or leave?
