two guides say completely different things about how to patch a large hole in drywall. a north-facing room that never dries fast, if that makes a difference. what would you try next? thanks in advance.

tried to clean mold off walls yesterday and made it slightly worse. no joy with what the label recommends, either. does it need anything special, or is it just patience?

two guides say completely different things about how to install drywall anchors. i've already tried the obvious supermarket stuff with no luck. does it need anything special, or is it just patience?

I need to remove wall paper and every video makes it look easier than it is. Does it need anything special, or is it just patience?

Tried to get rid of mice in walls yesterday and made it slightly worse. Plasterboard walls, painted about four years ago, if that makes a difference. What would you try next?

Spent saturday trying to build a retaining wall and got about halfway. The house is an old lath and plaster wall. Anyone got a method that actually holds up?
