Staying Healthy During Flu Season
Nothing is more important in
protecting yourself from
contagious viruses than
washing your hands
appropriately. Be sure to use
warm water, rub your hands
together vigorously for 20 to
30 seconds, and rinse your
hands methodically to
remove all soap.
In addition, the following
measures will help reduce the
transmission of viruses:
• Keep your hands away from
your face so that viruses do
not invade the mucus
membranes in your nose,
eyes, and mouth.
• Disinfect shared equipment
such as telephones, desks,
doorknobs, shopping cart
handles, kitchen counters and
computer keyboards with
disinfecting wipes or
solutions.
• Cover your mouth and nose
with a tissue when you cough
or sneeze. If you don’t have a
tissue handy, cough or sneeze
into your elbow or shoulder,

• Identify a separate room in
your home for taking care of
sick family members.
• Avoid being around those
who are sick unless you are
caring for them. In that case,
consider wearing a face mask

above precautions.

not your hand.
• Throw tissues away
immediately after use, and
wash your hands.
• Keep alcohol based hand
sanitizers readily available.
Use them after shopping,
pumping gas, using an ATM,
handling money and before
eating food from a drive-thru
restaurant.
• Consult your healthcare
provider about getting
appropriate flu shots.
• Get plenty of rest. Adults
need seven to eight hours of
sleep per night. Children need
even more.
• Stick to a healthy diet. Foods
rich in vitamins A, C, and E
such as milk, citrus fruits,
vegetables, nuts, and eggs can
strengthen your immune
system.
• Drink water. It flushes your
system and keeps you
hydrated during the dry
winter months.
• Reduce stress by exercising,
listening to music,
meditating, practicing yoga,
relaxing with a book, or
watching a funny movie or
television show.
• Stop smoking. Smoking
destroys the cilia fibers in
your nose and lungs that
sweep mucus filled with
contaminants out of your
body.
• Wash water bottles before
refilling them. Never share
bottles or cups with anyone.
Use disposable cups in the
bathroom and kitchen.

Optimistic Market Conditions
Buying a home is probably the most
significant financial commitment you'll
ever make or have ever made.
Regardless of how times change, owning
a home remains the cornerstone of the
American dream.
Arecent national survey shows that more
tan 90% of Americans believe house
prices will either stay the same or move
higher over the coming year. We expect
R/E values on average to advance about
3% during that time.
Yet, rents are expected to rise 4%. So it is
no surprise that two thirds of adults agree
that now is a good time to by a home.
Another helpful factor is that even while
job growth and the economy are picking
up, recent mortgage rates where lower
than they were a year ago. Positive home
sale trends are emerging.
A limited supply of homes for sale in
some communities is causing some
buyers to bid aggressively in order to
complete a purchase.
Here are some helpful strategies you can
use.
Obtain loan pre-approval, sellers will
then be assured gaining financing will
not be an issue.
That makes them ready to negotiate
seriously.
Look at homes in the middle of your
price range.
If you need to bid above the asking price,
you can do so without running out of
budget.
Consider your long term plans, if your
next home is a place where you will
likely spend many years, then it is not
crucial to strike a great deal.
Control the negotiations by including an
escalation clause in your offer, you then
are telling the seller your bid will go up
by a specific amount if a higher offer is
received on that home. You will have a
better chance to get the house your are
after without overpaying or exceeding
your budget.
Make sure your payments are affordable,
and then move forward confidently. If
you love a residence and can afford its
costs, you should strongly consider
making that your home.

Did You Happen To Meet Mr. & Mrs. Skunk Yet?
Skunks are infamous producers of an
odor so powerful that it quickly and
easily communicates a clear message:
“Don’t mess with me.”
Although known mostly for its robust
smell, the chemical can also cause
intense discomfort if it gets into a
person's or animal’s eyes.
Fortunately, the skunk’s characteristic
black and white coloring is so
recognizable that most potential victims
have fair warning.
Though blending into the landscape is a
more common form of protection in the
wild, being so distinguishable is
generally beneficial to skunks because it
can dissuade many wild animals, and the
occasional dog with more than half a
brain, from attacking.
tail, hissing, short forward charges, and,
especially, twisting the hind end around
in your direction.
Spotted skunks will even contort into a
characteristic handstand, rump in the air
with eyes still fixed on the threat.
Move away slowly and quietly. By
nature, dogs tend to ignore these
warnings, so it is important they be
restrained for their own good.
Common conflicts and solutions
It is more likely you will smell a skunk
than see one. Persistent, faint musk
smells under a building or woodpile may
suggest that a skunk has taken up
residence. You should look for other
clues as well because foxes also have
their own musky scent that may cause
misidentification.
You may find small, shallow holes in the
lawn, similar to those made by squirrels,
which are a result of a skunk foraging for
grubs.
Occasionally you may also find plants
knocked over or damage to the lower
leaves or ears of ripening garden crops,
including corn.
Occasionally a skunk will wander into an
open garage or shed, a compelling reason
to secure all outbuildings.
How many skunks are killed each year
simply because of fear is not known, but
it is surely a large number. This is
unfortunate because it is common
knowledge among those who work
closely with these animals, that it
actually takes a lot to get sprayed.
Skunk encounters
Occasional skunk sightings in a
neighborhood are not a cause for alarm.
Because skunks are generally easygoing, they will not intentionally bother
people. In fact, skunks may benefit
humans by eating many insects and
rodents many regard as pests.
Warning signs to heed
Skunks use their powerful defense only
when they or their young are threatened
and cannot escape. Even then, they give
ample warning that should be
heeded—stamping front feet, a raised
1 quart of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide
1/4 cup baking soda
1 teaspoon liquid soap (laundry or
dishwashing soap)
Tolerance
Because of the lingering odor, and fear of
being sprayed it may be hard for some
people to tolerate skunks living under a
deck or old shed. But skunks need such
shelter when they are most vulnerable
(during the coldest parts of the winter
and when raising young).
The nocturnal habits of skunks, their
unaggressive nature , and the generally
beneficial role they play in nature by
consuming insects and rodents are all
good reasons to leave them alone until
they have moved on their own accord
(which they readily do) or can safely be
harassed away from an area where they
are not wanted.
Wearing rubber gloves, use immediately,
and outdoors, if at all possible, to keep
the volatile skunk spray out of your
house. Rinse after five minutes and
repeat if needed.
Warning: Do not store this mixture—use
it immediately after mixing. If left in a
closed container, the oxygen gas
released could make the container burst.
This mixture can bleach fur and hair
color.
Clothes or other fabric items sprayed
directly may be best thrown away. Fabric
that picked up the smell indirectly, as
well as buildings and similar surfaces,
can be washed with one cup of liquid
laundry bleach per gallon of water. (This
may bleach colors.)
Commercial products containing
neutroleum alpha will also neutralize the
odor. It is best to consult your physician
for treatment if you are sprayed in the
eyes. But you can ease the discomfort by
liberally flushing eyes with cold water.
Skunk odors inside are usually caused by
occupancy beneath the house or a
discharge outside an open window.
During courtship, skunks may be more
prone to lose control, of their normal
scent management patterns.
There are odor neutralizers on the market
that work with amazing effectiveness to
eliminate the stray skunk smells that
might need occasional attention.
Neutralizing odors
The traditional remedy for a “skunking”
is a tomato juice bath.
To neutralize the smell, however, the
chemicals in the spray must be changed
into a different type of molecule, and
tomato juice does not do that.
Tomato juice can, along with vinegar,
and any other mildly acidic solution,
wash off the oily spray to at least reduce
the smell.
Recommendations for removing odor
Commercial products are available from
veterinary and pet supply outlets, but for
a home remedy that will neutralize skunk
spray odor on dogs, skin (not eyes), and
