Summer tends to make me happy. I love taking a swim, enjoying baseball, and not putting on socks for four months. But if there is one point about summer that bugs me, it’s … definitely, bugs. Not only are mosquito bites itchy as well as painful, they are also hazardous. Going outside, particularly to a wooded place, without any insect repellent is not an option. But insect repellents, as you can see, are not eco-friendly nor particularly healthy for you. Many are created using DEET, which is highly effective in warding off pesky pests but not something you would like swimming around inside your bloodstream, which is exactly where it ends up after you spray it on your skin. Thankfully, for those who wish to safeguard their health by avoiding both bug bites and chemical-based insect repellents, there are all kinds of do-it-yourself formulas for natural bug repellents.

Every creature has a place in the natural world; unfortunately some of them feel that their place is YOUR garden. If you take pride in your garden, keep flowers and vegetables and try to maintain a neat lawn, you will come across many adversaries. Aside from all the insects you have to worry about; rabbits, birds and even deer can cause considerable damage to your greenery.

You can avoid tackling bugs altogether if you avoid planting their favourite plants in the first place. Most garden centres will be able to provide information on any bugs that choose to feed on a particular plant you might be buying but if not you can always find the information online. You will most likely be able to find plants that you like that won’t attract unwanted guests but if not there are other options.

You could buy a collection of praying mantis or other predatory insects that will control the population of nuisance insects. You could get some other plants that attract birds which also feed on insects; this will deal with the insect problem but could leave you dealing with the birds.

When the weed killer Roundup was launched in the seventies, it proved it could kill almost any plant yet still be less dangerous than a number of other herbicides, and it helped farmers to give up harsher chemical compounds and lower tilling which could promote erosion. But 24 years later, a couple of sturdy types of weed immune to Roundup have developed, driving farmers to go back to a number of the less environmentally safe methods they left behind many years ago. The situation is the most severe within the South, in which a number of farmers now walk fields using hoes, eliminating weeds in ways their great-grandfathers were happy to leave behind.

St. Louis-based Monsanto maintains the resistance is frequently overstated, observing that a lot of weeds show no indication of immunity. “We think that glyphosate will continue to be an essential tool within the farmers’ collection,” Monsanto spokesman John Combest mentioned. The corporation has began paying out cotton farmers $12 an acre to pay for the cost of other herbicides to use alongside Roundup to improve its usefulness. The trend has verified some food protection groups’ belief that biotechnology will not decrease the use of chemicals over time.

Would you like to have chickens? Maybe you wish to have your own fresh eggs. If so, you will need to make a structure to house them. Here are some things to consider about building a chicken coop.

Make sure that it is legal. Check with your local government. There may laws governing livestock. You may also have certain restrictions. The coop may need to be away from property lines. You may also need to own a certain amount of land.

How big should your new coop be? Do you know how many chickens you want? If you only want a few, make a small coop. If you want many, it will be more expensive. What use are the chickens for? If you are going to use them for fryers, you will not need to make nests.

Make careful plans for your structure. Decide where to put the windows and the doorway. Make sure it is tall enough to have a proper roosting area. What type of roof will you put on it?

Are you going to start with baby chicks? If so, you will need some special equipment. Young chicks need to be kept dry and warm. You will have to keep the temperature monitored closely. They need special food also.

Hummingbirds usually get all their energy they need from flower nectar and sugar. These birds have great metabolism and they are active throughout the day. The birds rely on the proteins and nutrients that they get from the nectar to aid their thirst to fly and navigate continuously. Humming birds are actually flycatchers and go after flies; they need the sugar as a fuel to go after their actual target. Hummingbirds are hungry most of the time, this is the main reason that people have found that the best way to invite these birds near the house is to have feeders and other devices that can dispense sugar and nectar to get these birds to eat and fly around them.

Hummingbird feeders have evolved as a product in the past few decades. There are many companies that are developing new kind of hummingbird feeders to make it more attractive and easy to use. There are many new innovations that make it easy for the hummingbird to come and rest near the feeder and consume the nectar and sugar syrup. There are many kind of modern materials used in the manufacture of the hummingbird feeders. The ceramic and glass feeders still remain, but new types of feeders such as plastic ones are available in the market now. These feeders are more users friendly and can easily be dismantled and put back together. New feeders are less friendly to the birds because they need to first learn how to feed themselves from it. But the hummingbirds learn fast so you should not have any problem.
