    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!

    • 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.

    Running has been one of my favorite sports activity. This is one of my passions. Not only for the health benefits but also the fun of it. It’s really cool when you are running with everyone in the Fun Run or in t […]

Running is incredibly effective at making you healthier in a number of ways. While it may not be everybody’s favorite form of exercise, knowing what it can do for your life just may make you look at running in an entirely new light.

      Believe it or not, running is actually a great way to increase your overall level of health. Research shows that running can raise your levels of good cholesterol while also helping you increase lung function and use. In addition, running can also boost your immune system and lower your risk of developing blood clots.

    • This is true unless the person has you restricted from seeing certain posts they make. You can limit the audience to your facebook account. I have done this plenty of times. If I don’t want someone seeing something then I will place them in my restricted list or I will make the post only where certain people can see it. Not hard.

      • Why post it at all? If I never read those ‘tests’ those ‘cleaver’ images, I wouldn’t have missed anything. It is the kind of thing a person does when they are bone deep dishonest. These guys are dishonest. They have more time than you and I put together. They just don’t want to communicate with K and I.

    • Maybe. Maybe not. I can understand you giving your opinion about it but that’s only what it is your opinion. ADHD and ADD are being used too much on children that actually don’t have it, that part is true but those that actually do have it may need a way of doing things differently than other students. A child can have a learning disability and never get diagnosed. They can then turn into adults that struggle through life finding it hard to find and keep a job. So I wouldn’t call all diagnoses fake.

    • Put it like this, if you grew up in the 50s there were none of these diagnosis. No one had it. If you go to a 3rd World Country, (not the rich areas, the common ones) no one has it. No one has any of these maladies.

    If I told you about this man, everyone’s blood would begin to boil. He was and is the most complete hypocrite I have ever met. An ex-friend of his, (a psychiatrist) diagnosed him with Narcissism, so you can s […]

    • I agree with everything you said, however, I did not get the full message you are bringing on board. There are so many details lacking which are capable of addressing the issue if one works under boss from hell.
      For example: one can be given an appointment letter detailing every bit of the work to done. However, working in the same company for couple of times, you realize that the whole job description given you has changed and time of closing shifted far beyond expected.

      You realize that day in day out your boss has new task which he or she always wait till the last minute when you are about to close from work.

      And even, times where you have to concentrate doing something for yourself, he brings item on board which you only have to be responsible for.

      The worst aspect of working with such a boss is, he is quick to criticize and praise less or no praise at all.

      He focuses on himself most of the time when it comes to training on the job.

      And there are more talk about unending and I hope your article could articulate in these aspects.

      All in all you did well.

      • What happens is that when you develope ‘coping mechanisms’ they tend to be negative. Since you know he will criticise everything you do, you leave documents fester on the computer until he signs off. If you want less work what you do is make an easy error so that by the time he sits down, reads the work, finds the error, tells you to correct it, you, get more free time. You get free time because you know the error and while he walks away, you make the correction, leave it on the computer for tomorrow. Hence the ten files on your desk, stay there until tomorrow.

        You see how non-productive one can get.

    • It was, on reflection, not as much of a job as a chance for him to exercise his narcissism. To have an audience.

      I have tried not to hate him, but it is not easy.
