The white fibers you see in a cigarette filter are NOT cotton, but a plastic that can persist in the environment as long as other forms of plastic. 

Kel-Tec also makes a nice VERY lightweight .380, and it's available in a carbon fiber composite finish that is SWEET.

You sure it's not a fiber patch?

One of my biggest problems is some of my properties still don't have fiber or high speed internet and our only option is satellite.

My STR tenants that were doing soil remediation and underground fiber optic network installation went home for 2 weeks because they couldn't work.

Not sure if city / county code laws do not allow for the homes to be modernized with materials such as fiber cement board / hardi board panels.  

Outside, the cinder blocks are covered by 4x8 sheets of fiber cement siding (HardiePlank), so it doesn't look too bad.I've been renting it out for 1.5 years but lived in it before that.

Simply said its a "letter T shaped " pipe fitting on its back ,like an upside down T in the front yard of the property that allows the technician to access the main drain ,usually 3 to 4" pipe ,,,set up an electric cable machine with the proper size cutter that matches the pipe diameter [ usually 3-4"]This way the technician can safely ,properly quickly clear the affected drain lineMechanical drain cleaning with cable equipment only clears about 70% of root intrusion ,,for a more complete cleaning the homeowner should also consider and request a high pressure water hydro jet drain cleaning .Properly done this unit will clean out roots down to the bare wall of your pipeThe installation of a COTG also allows the option of running a fiber optic drain camera inspection of your drain line from house to street in living color,,,Hope this help gangDD in Los Angeles

From a construction perspective, I would recommend a Hardiplank siding or its equivalent (fiber cement, etc.) for tenant situations if you are going with traditional siding.

I wouldn't depend on their high moral fiber to do the right thing.
