Carpet Beetles( continued from cover)
Detergent and hot water kill the larvae, so this is an important means of limiting carpet beetle populations indoors. Other recommended measures to reduce the likelihood of a carpet beetle problem are:
• Effective sanitation including routine vacuuming and housekeeping of pantry shelves and pet feeding and sleeping areas helps reduce the breeding sites and food sources;
• Storing items like wool clothing, leather and fur coats in sealed garment bags;
• Checking flowers, patio plants, and any second-hand items carefully before bringing indoors;
A Celebration of independence
As we consider the dramatic words of the Declaration of Independence, we wonder whether the writers knew the long-range impact of their words.
Did they see a great nation emerge from a vision of independence? We think they did. How many times have you personally marveled at the wisdom of these national founders? They had a rare vision of what our country would turn out to be, and that vision rings true to this very day. Their writings were an achievement of significant proportions.
Since the first July 4th, historians give us some interesting notes about that calendar day. First, they say the Declaration of Independence was signed on August 2, 1776, about a month after being adopted.
President Calvin Coolidge was born on July 4, and three of our nation’ s first five presidents died on that day: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson in 1826, and James Monroe, our fifth president in 1831.
Congress didn’ t actually declare it as legal federal holiday until 1941.
• Dry cleaning and using a clothes dryer on high heat to kill carpet beetle larvae in clothing and drapes;
• Ensuring that air ducts are clean and attics and crawl spaces are free of animal nests or carcasses.
Pesticides may be necessary to eliminate an existing infestation. Choose a pesticide designed for carpet beetles and follow label directions. Eliminating a heavy infestation is best left to a professional pest control specialist.
If you suspect that you have a carpet beetle problem or want to avoid one, call DNA Pro Cleaning & Restoration so that we can clean your carpet, upholstery and drapery. That is a logical first step to eliminating these destructive invaders.
This Independence Day, remember those who made it possible.
The 4th of July is also a holiday for American business, says Robbie Briggs, a real estate company CEO. He reminds us that it’ s a day that celebrates America’ s devotion to entrepreneurship and the opportunity to build businesses of our own.
Briggs says it serves as a tribute to each citizen and all they may elect to pursue in business or any other endeavor.
As we commemorate our independence, we remember that America’ s freedom and democracy occurred because of the determination of our forefathers to establish this place as a free country.
