In Need Of Fencing Supplies? Where Do You Start?

Posted in

Fencing needs to be sturdy so that it can withstand the elements and, perhaps even vandalism. Fencing can often deter thieves as well as providing you with privacy. Wooden fencing is ideal for both purposes. It is also pleasant to look at, which is where it triumphs over wire fencing. However, chicken wire can be painted and sculpted – it isn’t limited to being used for fences.

What did we do before there were fences?

Before fences, there were hedges separating fields and gardens. Wire has been around for thousands of years, although not the barbed variety which was first made in the USA. Barbed wire fences can prevent livestock stampeding. The large cattle could easily demolish a wooden fence, and the American West was not known for its hedges – rather, it was a sandy desert with large cacti being the indigenous plants.

What Are the Health Benefits of a Clean Carpet?

Posted in

Let’s face it, your carpet can be a breeding ground for all kinds of things that you probably don’t want to talk about. You, your family, even your pets walk all over it each day, and very few of them think about what they’re treading into the house from the outside. Let’s not even think about what the cat has been walking around in before bounding across the carpet. So it’s safe to say that a clean carpet is a healthier carpet, which is why it’s so important to perform some kind of routine maintenance on it.

Vacuuming is essential and the more you do it, the better your carpet is going to look. The suction can clean up all the dirt, grime, hair and other granules that get caught up in there from everyday use. But there are other methods that can do an even better job, like steam …
