The rafters in the roof, the joists supporting the floors and the casing behind the plasterboard walls are all subject to attack by mould and insects.

DIY Home Improvement

Camping And Snowmobiling In The Poconos

Home-Made Mosquito Repellents

Over the years since the Second World War, we have come to rely on chemicals rather than natural products. Chemicals were more powerful and more easily available. This is nowhere more true than in the sphere of insect repellents. DEET was invented just after the war and developed for use by the United States army for jungle warfare. DDT was used widely on crops around about the same time.

The Queen Termite

They are not related to ants in any way, although some people refer to them as white ants.

50cc Street Legal Scooters

50cc scooters have an engine capacity that classifies them as small motorcycles or mopeds at the limit between the vehicle category and moped classes. Regulations differ in many countries of the world, when it comes to the right to drive 50cc scooters with or without a driving license and common laws are seldom achieved. For instance, in some EU countries you can ride such motorcycles without a driving license. The exceptions are France and Italy, where you need a car driving license to drive vehicles up to 125cc. There is quite a high level of legal ambiguity for the definition and classification of scooters.
