RE: Nothing Has Worked To Get Rid Of Fleas
I have one inside dog, and we have 5 outside. This year has been the worst. They have become 'immune' to everything that we have used. Got the 'pill' from the vets, and fleas were gone from the dogs in 2 days! It is a tad expensive, and not very 'thrifty', but neither is spending money on store bought or internet bought solutions that don't work for us. I am glad that I tried that. ...

RE: Pictures Stuck to Frames
Don't try to pull the pic off the glass. Remove the glass from the frame, and make copies like that! Either at home, or somewhere else. To help prevent in future; glue strips of felt that match color of frame, on the inside, between the glass and the photo. Let dry for several days, then replace. ... View related article.

RE: Removing Smoke Smell From a Car
I have a truck that my son used over the summer, working at a golf course mowing, and the truck reeks of BO. I poured baking soda on the seat bottoms, and leaned the seats all the way back, and covered the backs as well. I even put it on the carpets.
As I already had a second auto, I left the baking soda on it for 5 days. Then I took it to the car wash, and vacuumed out the baking soda. It helped wonderfully! ... View related article.

RE: Information on Shepherd Boxer Mix
I don't know what kind of info you are looking for? It is a pretty pup, and will probably be very active and intelligent!
The smartest dogs I have ever had have been mixed breeds. ... View related article.

RE: Removing Candle From Broken Jar
You will need to make sure you can remove the rest of the glass without cutting yourself! You can place it in a used, clean mason jar, mayo jar, or even in one of the tin metal buckets--whatever is non-flamable that you can put it in for use. I would put something like a cup saucer under it though, when you get ready to burn it. ... View related article.

RE: What Is Couponing?
The people I have read about that do that don't live in the rural areas that I live in! They say that you can use coupons of ANY amount on double and triple coupon days, and combine that if a store does price matching ( you bring in a competitors ad for an item on sale for $1 and they will sell it to you for that), and they get a lot of items for free.

Some also say that stores will let you use one coupon multiple times. You have a coupon for 20 cents off something, and you can buy however many you want with that one coupon.
Where I live, they only have double coupons rarely, and cut the limit off at 50-75 cents! And you can only use one coupon to one item! I am glad that some are able to take advantage of those types of offers, but a lot of people aren't! ... View related article.

RE: Clearing Land and Selling the Trees
See if there is any logging/forestry companies local to you. Try checking in the yellow pages. They can usually give you the names of some that may be interested. ... View related article.
