    Hi guys and gals!! Our house is nearing completion (within the month) and I am wanting to put weather stripping on the bottom of all of the exterior doors. Not only to help with pelting rain during rainy season, but to help reduce the creepy crawlers from sneaking in under the doors. I haven't looked yet, but has anyone seen the weather stripping here in Dumaguete? Maybe Citi Hardware has it, or can order it?
    Thanks!!

    Some of us want the creapy crawlers coming in under the door so that the bigger creapy crawlies in the house eat them instead of us!

    Reedee,

    Around a year ago I searched the main hardware stores with no luck. I will now buy flat aluminum stock and a car inner tube. Cut the tube into strips leaving the correct distance to the floor, then screw it to the door under the aluminum.

    Just an idea.....Ron
