I have little black ants coming from an electrical outlet in my kitchen over my sink. I was told to use boric acid in the electrical outlet box. Is this safe and how safe is boric acid around pets and children?

| Unsafe Household Places for Pets
|
|
I have a friend that found her cat stuck upside down behind her hot water heater in her small apartment, when she came home from work. If she'd found him any later, he would have died. He was not only traumatized, but severely dehydrated.

| Use a Reflective Collar for Pets
|
|
If your pet goes out at night, be sure to outfit it with a reflective collar. My cat is jet black, so he's invisible at night, but even light colored pets can be hard to see. It only cost a dollar or two more for a reflective collar that may save your pets life!

| Fourth Of July Safety For Pets
|
 Water your yard to prevent fire works from setting fire to the grass and perhaps the car or the house. Keep the pets inside. It's the worst day of the year for pets. Dogs run off more often on the Fourth of July than any other day.

| Pets and Emergencies
|
|
Many of us live in areas where there are earthquakes, floods and tornados. I live in an earthquake/flood/lahar zone. Sometimes, we may be forced to evacuate to a safer place. If you have a cat like I do, and need to grab them quickly to take them to a safe place or shelter, they usually have a mind of their own.
