Is there anything that would rid caterpillars from around your home(porch)?
Gee, I wish you wouldn't because they become butterflies and pollinate. You obviously have some food source nearby that the caterpillars like. Are they brown and furry? Then you have oleanders or passion vines nearby. Anyway, I have a butterfly garden and get a dozen different kinds of butterflies in my yard. I can tell you for a fact that caterpillers get eaten by wasps. I have about a dozen different kinds of wasps staking out my yard at any given time, too! I'd rather have caterpillars! Ladybugs will eat the eggs and caterpillars when they are tiny. In some states you can buy live ladybugs. Ladybugs also eat aphids which are nasty yellow or black bugs that kill plants. If you buy the ladybugs, just follow the directions on the bag. I think you water down a tree or area where you want to release them and let them do their thing. They are very efficient. Praying Mantis egg sacks are also for sale in some states, but these are freaky looking bugs to many people, so look them up on the internet and see if they disturb you more than caterpillars!

Is there any superstition about having a duck on your porch when you come home?
Never heard of one, but my friend got home and had a duck sitting on your porch and does not live anywhere near a pond or park where a duck might be.
Yes in Wales it's a superstition that means great fortune will befall a person of the household. usually the head of household. It means really a wish they you've longed for will come true.
If a small stray kitten wandered on your front porch and came inside your home, would you take care of it?
:)
yes then take her to the police
How would you describe the essence of a home(for writing a book)?
How would you describe the essence of a home...how it feels to you, the warmth, the kindness, the love, the comfort?

OH & thank you:)
when I walked in the door all I could think about is how great beautiful and big this home was when I walked on the porch you could smell the roses from a distance away when you walked in this huge living room you could see a beautiful chandelier and a flat plasma television that takes up the whole wall. If you walk in the any other room they were so big and beautiful each one of them had there own bathroom. The kitchen was just beautiful I cant even describe it! After all, the nice furniture did pay off.
