d-CON brand, the trusted authority in rodent control products, recently launched Bait Paste Pouches.  They are the first bait that can be placed safely out of the reach of children and pets.  The moldable bait is sealed in a plastic pouch, making it safe to touch.  It also can fit into small spaces, including crevices and cracks, where mice can get to it but children and pets cannot.  It comes in a resealable container to add another level of safety and is small enough to be stored out of reach.  And at a retail price of only $5.99, it’s a small investment towards preventing what could turn into a much more expensive problem if not handled immediately.  With weather conditions primed for rodent season, which peaks on November 15^th, it’s a good product for people to have on hand!  

Why are d-CON® Bait Paste Pouches™ a good solution for your household?

• Their flexible material lets you put them out of reach of children and pets in the smallest crevices and cracks.
• Mice take the bait and then leave.
• d-CON® Bait Paste Pouches™ are palatable to mice.
• They are moisture-resistant, so they’re perfect for use in damp environments and humid climates.

Sorry I did not post a Freebie Friday this week. We were without internet for a few days. A few days!!! Eeek! You don’t realize how much you depend on something until it’s gone.

One evening a Husband, thinking he was being funny, said to his wife, “Perhaps we should start washing your clothes in ‘Slim Fast’. Maybe it would take a few inches off of your butt!”

His wife was not amused, and decided that she simply couldn’t let such a comment go unrewarded.

The next morning the husband took a pair of underwear out of his drawer.
“What the heck is this?” he said to himself as a little “dust” cloud appeared when he shook them out.

“Claire”, he hollered into the bathroom, “Why did you put Talcum Powder in my underwear?”

She replied with a snicker. “It’s not talcum powder; it’s ‘Miracle Grow’!!!!!!

Have you noticed that your clothes have a musty smell?  More people are using high efficiency (HE) washers now because they conserve water and electric.  However, some HE machines can develop a foul odor which is probably caused from water that has been left behind in the machine and soured.  To help clean out this unpleasant smell, simply do a load with Clorox Plus High Efficiency Bleach, which is specifically formulated for HE machines and effective at eliminating those bad odors.  Add bleach during white loads once a week to remove the first traces of scum accumulation while keeping whites their whitest.  Regular bleach can also be used to help eliminate bad odors in HE machines.
