    There are as many values in a household as there are members in there. Similar is the situation with society, the neighbourhoods, et al.   It is therefore very difficult to have a consensus on how to  live pe […]

      Young people do not consider the thinking and ideas of old people. There may arise a lot of clashes among the two generations and these must be settled down by great care.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, Ants are Here to Stay but Need to be Eradicated 8 years ago

    Pests are here to stay. They come in different forms and sizes. Some are poisonous and yet there are others that are a nuisance but are harmless.  We have ants that belong in this category. There are many […]

    • We are infested with ants. Tried everything. Got this expensive spray. Trying so hard to get rid of them. Put down a plate and in a few minutes ants are crawling over it even though it is empty.

      • I have solved that problem in our household. I have a water moat and plates are kept in that moat where ants cannot come. I also use Notix a very effective and safe insecticide.

    • Only lived one place that I can recall where we had a real problem with ants. Can think of a lot of places where we had a roach problem. I was more than happy to get rid of them!

      • We are well equipped to get rid of ants and even cockroaches. At the moment we have no cockroaches though

    • I heard that ants do not like the smell of cinnamon. I’m not sure how true that is. I believe that ants need to stay outside and away from my house but they do have a purpose in life. They do help break down things that are no longer living.

    • Ants are blessing and black insects are also blessing for home. Yes, if ants bring food in home to store means food will be in the house. If ants take food from the house to to another place means food will be less in the house the whole year> it all true check it practically.

      Killing ants is sometimes a necessity when you have an infestation and there is no end in sight. It’s the least desirable option but it must be considered when you have them in the home constantly

      try one of the following methods to deal with the ant trail:
      Dip a sponge into soapy water. Simply wipe the sponge down the trail, collecting ants. Rinse them down the drain. Rinse and repeat as often as required until all ants in the trail have been removed.
      Spray the trail with all-purpose cleaner or a bleach solution.

      Wipe it up with a wet paper towel. Spraying the nest can be effective, but you really want to make sure you get them all, otherwise killing part of the colony can simply encourage certain species to establish new colonies, which is counter-productive to you.

      Use 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of borax, 1 teaspoon of water. Mix well. Place a small amount on little pieces of cardboard where the ants are active. Watch them swarm it and carry back to nest.

      If it kills them too quickly, try 1 1/2 teaspoons of borax. You want them to carry it back and kill the colony and the queen.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, Adjustment is the Key to a Happy Marriage 8 years ago

    I just read a post where one was congratulating someone who had stayed married for 9 years. It was great they said to stay married for that long. It sure amused me. Why should anyone think that it is a feat to […]

    • Adjustment is very critical in making healthy marriage relationship stable for a long time. Adjustment is acceptance and acceptance is commitment to be diligent in this peculiar relationship which is above every other relationship you had with any one else whiles you exist on this planet earth.

      • No matter how many years a couple knows each other before marriage it is only after marriage that they start buildking their relationship.

    • Stiller and Meara are the exception. I actually remember when I was growing up that celebrities were the only ones who got divorced. “Normal” or “ordinary” folks didn’t do that. They stayed together until one of them died! The vows taken were a sacred oath to love another for better or for worse, in sickness and in health … they were not casual empty vain words. The people uttering them before God meant what they said. But not any more!

    • There are more successful celebrity marriages which you will find in that link I have uploaded Broken marriages of ordinary people were never published in those days nor their successful marriages but today everything is exposed.

    The minimum amount to redeem is $10. So, you have to earn at least $10 in your account, then only you can make the redemption. I have been paid once, and I read many members have been paid many times too.

    • Saving some cash is a better idea and one must follow it to safeguard one’s future. We must save something from time to time. It does not mean that we should be frugal but trying to save whenever it is possible is a better idea in this regard.

      • Handling money is an art whether to spend it or save it. Everything has to be in limits.

    • nice post

    • Learning to handle your finances at an early age is always a good thing. I wish someone would have told me when I was young. Maybe I wouldn’t be so bad off now. Learning to budget is another good thing to learn. Learn to say no to things you really don’t need. Learning to say no to my kids is a hard thing for me.
