Just remember they only live about 24 hours without a food source. Sometimes I would just hang things outside for a couple of days to sanitize them. And if the item isn't actually dirty you don't have to wash it. You can just throw it in the dryer. It is the heat that kills them, not the washing...
I was the school Pediculosis Eradicator. That is a fancy name for the head lice lady with a degree.
I will agree with most of what was said. Lice do not prefer dirty heads. The house will need to be cleaned. Meaning vacuum daily, and all clothing and bedding needs to be put in the dryer on the...
My difficulty has been that I now live in a completely different climate. A foreign climate, completely opposite of what I knew before. That and the fact that I continue to try to plant what I was familiar with "back home", in the manner that I did everything "back home" in spite of the fact...
I hope I'm not butting in but... I live in an extreme climate. Summer temps are typically 120 but often reach 130.
My Austalorps and BO's did very well, as did my silkies. Meaning they didn't die. The silkies though, really earned their scratch. They were the only ones who continued laying...
I don't actually know how much rain we got; it was brief, but heavy rain. I don't actually ever watch the news so...
The Nephilim had to come inside the house and I hate how much they poop. The house gets all funky. If i try and be Pollyanna'Ish about it, It is very good for my garden. The...
He really is a keeper, plastic roses and all.
I did my walk last night and added in a few hills. It was brisk and breezy but I did it.
The sky was amazing!
The weather was gorgeous this morning. Then the winds started building and building. Then brief, torrential rain. Now cloudy and breezy. I'm supposed to go exercise again and frankly, I'm not feelin' it. All I wanna do is go home and cuddle-bunny under a blanket. Maybe sip some nice hot tea...
A picture is worth a thousand words? Most definitely. This was a visual treat, and helps me make the decision that I will try making marmalade. I am after all, in possession of fresh citrus in my yard :D
I was focusing on what you said about going to bed at the same time. We do that too.
I was married before, for twenty years. The marriage had it's issues. And I think those issues showed in the fact that we usually didn't head to bed at the same time.
This time around, it is something I cling...
African violets and primroses...happy sigh.
My eggs in my incubator are perking right along. I'm having difficulties maintaining the temperature in the incubator though. It stayed at 97 for about three days. The embryos that I can make out (uber dark eggs) seem small. I have slowly over the...
My work day draws to an end. I get to go home and enjoy my hubby. We spent the lunch hour talking on the phone (I walk to work so spending the lunch hour together wasn't possible). It was nice just to talk.
Have a wonderful evening. I know I will.
