How to repair rain water damage in my kitchen.?

If it just stained, and did not warp the drywall, you can paint with Kilz then with paint over that, the Kilz will stop the stain from coming though the paint. Or you can just buy Kilz brand paint, it is Kilz combined with paint. If you just paint over it with plain paint, the stain will come through the paint.

What can I do to stop rain water draining into my yard from my neighbor?

Talk to the city manager. There is probably a legality about raising the yard where it drains and dinterfers with a neighbor. I had the same but the neighbor dug a trench so his would flood my large backyard from his higher yard. The city put him straight and did not allow it. I would ask the neighbor to do something first and if he did not , I would see the city, then if you have to do it yourself dig a trench and route it to a hole at the edge of the yard to go back where it came from!Until then put up a barrier of sheet metal where it flows from their yard and again near your doorway. You have to protect your home!Best wishes!

How to prevent mosquito laying egg in my rain water barrel?

Drop a teaspoonful of cooking oil into the water. The oil will spread in a film across the surface and the mosquito larvae will actually drown as they must breathe air to develop. The oil reduces the water surface tension so the swines can not float.

Is it bad to drink water straight from the jug?

Bugs, bug eggs, and dust can all end up in the jug. The sterilant that cities / water providers (hopefully) use to deliver safe water decays with time and light exposure, and increasing temperature. Things can start growing in the water, and you may or may not have problems with them. Certainly anyone that walks in and drinks from it after use-without-cleaning-between-refills will get diarrhea after a few months of such use. Your intestinal flora will get used to this particular biological input. If you keep it covered and in the refrigerator, clean it between refills, this would be better. People put rain water into barrels for weeks and use it at need. But they usually boil then cool it before drinking.

What is the most affordable means of storing 3,000 gallons (11,000 litre) of rain water?

They sell plastic water tanks in the $1000 range for 3000 gallons (11000 litre). Two such tanks were famously seen in Breaking Bad season 4, as the repository for both the magic "methylamine" they needed, and also for the (spoiler alert).Figure on 8 foot (2.4 metre) diameter x 10 feet (3 metre) tall. These tanks are absolutely enormous and come on a flat bed truck; the trucker will expect you to have a backhoe and rigging necessary to pick the tank off the back of the truck.You could probably fetch one yourself, e.g. if you found a bargain on Craigslist; but to move it we are talking a big 8 foot (2.4 metre) wide 2-3 axle trailer with a Reese hitch, and a big macho vehicle to pull it. It's not the weight, it's the wind resistance - you do not want your trailer or tow vehicle tossed out of control or flipped over entirely!Country folk have a single "go-to" container: the "intermediate bulk container" or IBC Tote. These are pallet-sized (40 x 48", 1 1.2 metre) and hold usually 275 or 330 gallons (1040 or 1250 litre; note: multiples of 55-gallon / 208 litre drums). They are 4-5 feet (1.2-1.5 metre) tall.Now, you can buy these new if you really, really, really want to... and I am sure factories get quite a good price on them by the trainload. But the people proffering them in single quantity really stick it to ya - they would brazenly charge $4 for a 2-liter soda-style bottle. (You can get 'em full of soda for $2).On the other hand, they are usually single-use containers, especially food-grade ones, so industry winds up with a whole lot of 'em. Now, some clever people on Craigslist will clean them out for you and sell them to you for $35 to $75, but your best bet is call around to industry and service providers, and see who has way too many of them and will let you have em for nothin'.I recently had a need for one, and a friend immediately offered me one from his workplace's overstock, and driving through the local sawmill I saw another 30 or 40 piled up.
