How to control ant infestations at home

REALTY

815-380-2500 NEW G LISTIN

(MS) -- Few things elicit the ire of homeowners more quickly than insect infestations inside a home. Though many types of insects can find their way into a home, ants tend to be especially skilled at such invasions, causing many a headache among homeowners hoping to send their uninvited houseguests packing once and for all. Ants are attracted to food, water and shelter, making kitchens, bathrooms and laundry rooms ideal havens for these unwelcome critters to congregate. Such infestations can frustrate homeowners and make them uncomfortable in their own homes, but curtailing an ant infestation need not be so difficult. * Identify the point of entry. Upon discovering an ant infestation, homeowners should conduct a thorough inspection of their homes to identify where the ants are entering the home. Ants are tiny and capable of crawling through the smallest of cracks or gaps, so every home is vulnerable to an ant infestation. Once you discover an ant inside your home, follow the ant rather than killing it, as foraging ants are typically sent from a colony located outside the home in search of moisture and food to bring back. * Set the bait. Once you have identified the point of entry, you can then set some indoor ant bait. Employing borax, a natural mineral found in many common household products such as hand soaps and toothpastes, as their active ingredient, TERRO(R) Indoor Liquid Ant Baits use antsâ€™ anatomy against them to curtail infestations. Adult worker ants cannot digest solid food, which they must bring back to the colony for additional processing. Liquid ant baits exploit this physiology by making it easy for ants to transport the liquid bait back to the rest of the colony, where more ants will ultimately succumb to the bait. In addition, as the worker ant carries the bait back to the colony, itâ€™s also dropping a pheromone trail from the bait to the nest, ensuring that other ants will know where to find the bait, which they will hungrily seek out, making it easy for homeowners to eradicate the entire colony of ants.

Indoor Liquid Ant Baits and Outdoor Liquid Ant Bait Stakes can help homeowners effectively eradicate ant infestations inside and outside of their homes. * Expect to see more ants after setting the bait. Baiting ants requires some patience on the part of homeowners, who should expect to see more ants appear in the hours after initially laying down the baits. Thatâ€™s because the bait is intentionally attempting to draw ants out and attract as many of them as possible, so the more ants you see in the first couple of days after laying the bait, the more effective that bait will be at eradicating the colony. Especially large ant colonies may take up to 10 days to curtail, but smaller infestations can usually be controlled within 24 to 48 hours. * Address the outdoors as well. Nearly all ant infestations can be traced to a colony beneath the ground outside a home. Though ants prefer to invade the interior of a home where they can find food, water and shelter, that does not mean your homeâ€™s exterior is immune to such infestations, which can typically be found by searching for foraging trails that look like a line of traffic filled with ants. That line often leads directly into a home via windows, doors, exhaust vents, faucets, sliding glass doors, and along gutters and exterior walls. TERRO(R) Outdoor Liquid Ant Bait Stakes provide an effective and long-term solution to control outdoor ant colonies. Just like the indoor baits, these stakes employ a specially formulated liquid ant bait solution that attracts and kills all common household ants, including Argentine ghost ants, little black, acrobat, and pavement ants, among others. The Liquid Ant Bait Stakes have a snap off bait activation system that keeps the bait fresh until ready to use, while a seethrough window makes it easy for homeowners to monitor the liquid ant bait so they know when

Thoughtful gifts for hosts and hostesses

* Plant: Plants also make great gifts for hosts and hostesses. While flowers donâ€™t have the longest life expectancy, a well-maintained plant can last a full season or longer. Plants can serve as pleasant accents to a homeâ€™s interior while improving the air quality within the home, but plants also can be placed outdoors to add an extra element to a hostâ€™s garden or yard.

(MS) When invited to a friend or family memberâ€™s home for a dinner party or weekend getaway, custom suggests bringing a gift along for the host or hostess. Hosting is not always as easy as some hosts make it appear, so bringing a gift along is a great way to show your gracious hosts how much you appreciate their efforts. The following are a handful of ideas that make great host and hostess gifts.

* Scented candle: Scented candles strike a chord with people who love to relax at home or establish a serene environment within their homes and offices. Hosts work very hard when hosting friends or family members, and scented candles can help them to unwind once all the guests have come and gone for the night. * Coffee: Coffee makes a great gift when spending a night or weekend at your hostâ€™s home. Many adults prefer a hot cup of coffee when they wake up in the morning, so bring along a bag of fresh gourmet coffee for everyone to enjoy through the weekend. When bringing fresh coffee, itâ€™s best to err on the side of caution, so make sure to have the beans ground before you arrive at the home of your host, who may or may not have a grinder. For example, if a friend or family member is You can even go the extra mile and bring both hosting a holiday party, then bring an ornament caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee so those or decorative item he or she can hang on the tree who prefer decaf are not left out in the cold. or use to deck the halls in the years to come. If the party is a summertime backyard barbecue, * Seasonal items: Seasonal items relevant to then give some grilling accessories hosts can use the time of year when youâ€™re visiting or staying when firing up the grill throughout the rest of the overnight with your host also make great gifts summer.

* Electric wine opener: For those who want to lend a helping hand with regard to nighttime beverages, consider an electric wine opener. Such openers remove the struggle of opening bottles of wine with traditional corkscrews. Electric wine openers can remove both natural and synthetic corks at the effortless press of a button, which means hosts can quickly and easily open bottles of wine for the table without the fear of breaking the cork and having it sneak its way into the wine.
