Project: Install Exterior Low-E Storm Windows.

What is it? Low-e windows reflect infrared heat back into a home.

Such windows are coated

with an ultra-thin layer of metal that improves the window’s insulation ability.

How much can I save?

Homeowners who install low-e windows can save between 12 and 33 percent on their annual heating and cooling costs.

National Grid is warning customers to beware of a new phone scam where imposters are demanding immediate bill payment and threatening service disconnection. This latest scam, which is targeting customers already facing hardships due to COVID-19, involves callers who pretend to be National Grid representatives.

They tell customers that unless payment is made within 30 minutes, their power will be shut off. The customer is then directed to call “the direct billing department to make a payment and avoid power disconnection.”

The scammers use sophisticated phone systems that display National Grid on the customer’s caller ID. Additionally, the phone number customers are instructed to call closely resembles the company’s recorded messaging and phone prompt directions.

These elements make it difficult to differentiate an actual National Grid call from an imposter’s call. When in doubt, customers should hang up and call the National Grid customer service number on their bill.

National Grid reminds customers that on March 13, the company temporarily suspended collectionsrelated activities, including service disconnections, to lessen any financial hardship brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The company continues to encourage customers struggling to pay their bills to take advantage of bill payment options or to call to speak with one of our Consumer Advocates.

Home renovation projects can pay numerous dividends. Renovations can have a positive effect on resale value, make homes more livable for residents and, in some ways, make homes more affordable.

Renovation projects that aim to conserve energy can save homeowners substantial amounts of money. Such projects don’t often require considerable effort or even sizable financial investments, which can make homeowners skeptical as to just how much they can save after completing the project.

The scale of a project may have little to do with how much homeowners will save. For example, the U.S. Department of Energy notes that a relatively effortless task like turning back a thermostat between 7° and 10° F for eight hours per day can save homeowners as much as $83 per year. A more labor-intensive task like planting shade trees saves homeowners an average of between $35 and $119 per year.

When looking for ways to conserve energy around the house and save money, homeowners need not necessarily commit to expensive projects.

The DOE notes that the following are some energy-saving projects and details what homeowners can expect to save after completing them. While each individual project may not result in jaw-dropping savings, homeowners who follow many of these recommendations may end up saving more than $1,000 per year.

Home Garden DIY Projects That Can Conserve Energy Around The House

(StatePoint) People are heading outdoors to prep lawns and gardens for the season and get their families ready for the warm weather.

What’s the key common denominator for most of these activities?

“Whether it’s using a tiller to start a garden or power washing the driveway, homeowners rely on fuel to jumpstart warm weather activities,” says Daniel Marshall, vice president of marketing and business development with Scepter.

“Gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuel all link people to projects and activities outside the home.”

(NAPSI)—In this season of social distancing, many Americans are turning to gardening, finding joy and peace in an outdoor activity that can be safely enjoyed from home. “What all gardeners know, and the rest of you may discover, is that if you have even the smallest space, a pot on a window ledge, a front step, a wee yard, there is no balm to the soul greater than planting seeds,” recently wrote Charlotte Mendelsen for The New Yorker. If you haven’t gotten your hands a little dirty yet, now could be the time.

More Milkweed For Monarchs You can help feed both your soul and butterflies by planting monarch habitat, including milkweed

and other flowers that provide nectar. Milkweed in particular provides an essential source of food and is the only place monarch butterflies will lay their eggs.

Supporting monarchs is critical, as they face many health challenges including climate change, drought and habitat loss.

However, anyone can help by planting milkweed and other brightly colored, p o l l i n a t o r- a t t r a c t a n t flowers in the garden or even on the balcony.

Other Flowers That Butterflies Love There are many other flowers that support butterflies, bees and other pollinators’ health while adding beauty to the garden with bright,

happy blooms. These 10 plants attract butterflies and make vibrant, fragrant additions to any garden: • Sunflowers • Lavender • Asters • Coneflowers • Black-eyed Susans • Verbena • Catnip • Rosemary • Sage • Salvia Whether you already find solace in gardening or are looking for a new hobby, you can help make a difference. So, plant a few flowers to see what gardening can do for you— and for butterflies.

Home Garden Make Your Garden Count For Butterflies

By Noelle Stanuch

The Charity of The Month for May is: Guardians of Rescue to get food for their pets. However, Paws of War will at times arrive at their homes with no warning, knock on their door and tell them that they have some items to drop off for them. “You always see that tear in their eye” says Robert. “That someone actually cares enough to come to their home and bring them something is very special.”

A lot of these veterans suffered for many years, all of which now have lifelong disabilities due to their service to our country. Paws of War feels that at the very least they can bring them pet food to give them a helping hand during these tough times.

Additionally, Paws of War has partnered with Cambridge Catering, who is providing hot cooked meals free of charge to our veterans. Hank, a Smithtown resident and veteran, was someone that Paws of War helped. When they arrived at his home, they noticed a his two very proud flags were destroyed.

They handed off the pet food and trays of hot food that Cambridge Catering has provided, but they didn’t stop there.

They then went to the hardware store and purchased everything to fix and replace his flags.

Guardians of Rescue and Paws of War can both use your support so they can continue to help others. Please visit www.guardiansofrescue.org/donate or www.pawsofwar.org/donate-today to give today. No amount is too small! Paws of War is also looking for volunteers with construction experience to assist in building catterys and dog houses for animals in need. For additional information, you can call Guardians of Rescue at 888-287-3864 and Paws of War at 631-FOR-PAWS.

If you would like your organization to be featured in the column or you have uplifting community news you’d like to share, please email Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com.

Guardians of Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Their mission is to facilitate and foster programs and activities that further the unique benefits of interaction between people and animals.

We are all aware of the toll that this pandemic is having on people, yet the impacts are being felt beyond humans.

Animals are also being impacted in numerous ways by this situation.

Guardians of Rescue has been dealing with the Covid Crisis in many different ways, such as helping people feed their pets and taking on the responsibility to care for homeless animals. They have even stepped out of their realm of helping animals to assist seniors during these trying times.

They are overwhelmed by the amount of assistance needed and their phones are ringing non-stop. So many people have had their employment impacted by the virus, therefore donations have been down. This makes it difficult for them to continue feeding the animals, building doghouses, taking in new rescues and trying to cover all their expenses.

“The pandemic has created a host of problem for the animals,” says Robert Misseri, President of this organization.

“I hope that we can make it through this difficult time, so that we can continue to help the animals in need.”

Robert is also the President of Paws of War, another non-profit right here on Long Island. This organization trains and places shelter dogs to serve and provide independence to our U.S. military veterans that suffer from the emotional effects of war. In turn, each veteran can experience the therapeutic and unconditional love only a companion animal can bring.

Throughout this pandemic, they have been tending to the most at risk veterans.

They find that their older senior veterans typically are very prideful and refuse to ask for any handouts. Many live alone and will still go out and put themselves at risk

FASNY Offers Lifesaving BBQ And Grilling Tips During Lockdown As New Yorkers are beginning to emerge from “New York on Pause,” and looking towards nicer weather, many will be dusting off and firing up their grills for the first time in months. The Firemen’s Association of the State of New York urges all New Yorkers to follow some basic rules and tips to avoid accidents and injuries, and to remember not to hesitate to call for help needed.

“The warmer weather will certainly encourage New Yorkers to break out their BBQ’s for some outdoor cooking,” said FASNY President Steven Klein. “We want all residents to stay safe as we emerge from quarantine and heed some basic safety tips. We also remind everyone to continue to follow social distancing rules to keep their families and other families safe for the coming months.”

According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), from 2014-2018, an average of 19,700 patients per year went to emergency rooms because of injuries involving grills and gas grills were involved in an average of 8,900 home fires per year, including 3,900 structure fires and 4,900 outdoor fires annually. Keep everyone safe by following the important tips below.

Tips from the NFPA and FASNY: Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors.

The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches.

Keep children and pets at least three feet away from

the grill area.

Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill.

Never leave your grill unattended.

Always make sure your gas grill lid is open before lighting it.

Grilling Safety Video from the NFPA About FASNY Founded in 1872, the Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY) represents the interests of the approximately 90,000 volunteer firefighters and emergency medical personnel in New York State. For more information, visit www.fasny.com.

THE ISLIP SCHOOLS PTA EXEC. BOARDS

As part of a distance learning unit on geometry, third graders at Islip’s Commack Road Elementary School took on a “Tape-estry” Challenge.

Each student was asked to create a design with tape and sidewalk chalk, using geometric shapes such as triangles, squares, rectangles, diamonds and rhombuses, then explain the design with any combination of mathematical

systems including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and fractions. Students with limited concrete canvas space could use anything they could find around the house to meet the challenge, such as paper, rulers, crayons and paint.

“The response to the challenge was overwhelming, as students took to their driveways, their porches, and garages

17

Third Graders Take On “Tape-Estry” Challenge to create extraordinary geo-art,” said teacher Brian Smith.

The initial inspiration for the activity came from student Keleigh Franz, who had sent in driveway chalk art she created with her siblings, guided by their mother in an effort to keep them intellectually stimulated while providing a fun outdoor activity to work on as a family.

FOX PERFORMS IN SPECIAL MUSIC VIDEO - East Islip music teacher Ron Fox recently performed in a video with more than 70 other Long Island musicians, playing “We Are the World 2020 - The Quarantine Mix, Long Island” to bring hope and healing and help people during this difficult time. The video has been viewed more than 400,000 times on YouTube and was featured in local news broadcasts. View here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTK84KEDMW8.

Long Island Media Group • Publishing Since 1953 • 631.226.2636 • www.SouthBaysNeighbor.com Using South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper as a form of advertising has been a positive experience. It is the one local paper that is a staple here on the South Shore. I grew up with the South Bay in Lindenhurst and looked forward to receiving it when living in Massapequa and now in Massapequa Park. People stop me and comment how they see me in all the papers and honestly, theirs is the only one I advertise in, so I’m getting the exposure I wanted! Through this difficult time, it has been comforting to reach out to my account representative and have him respond so quickly, whether I am placing my own ad or an ad with other Signature Associates I work with and admire. I think it foolish not to buy print ads in the South Bay’s Neighbor, which is read by so many. Thank you for publishing this local paper. - Katherine C. of Signature Premier Properties

My attitude of gratitude starts with a huge thank you and profound/authentic appreciation for South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper.

This paper really helped put my salon business “on the map” by increasing my client base. I also wound up being contacted by Senator Brooks’ office in regards to being nominated for the Empire State Award, which I then won, after they learned about all that I do for the community while reading the South Bay. I absolutely love this paper and I’m forever grateful what they have done for me.

I have been working with my account representative for the past couple of years to promote my company in the South Bay Neighbor Newspaper and he has always been so helpful and fast to get back to us with any issues that may arise. I am looking forward to continuing our business relationship for many years to come! He and his team are a pleasure to work with.
