September usually brings the last of the hot weather for the year. It is also the start of the rodent season for most regions of the country. Even though this year I’ve noticed that the weather throughout the country has been quite varied; hot in the South for the most part and cooler in the Northeast with record hot temperatures in the Northwest, I am sure we can expect the inward migration of rats and mice soon. As you know, there have been improvements this past year in rodent control equipment and baits. Regarding the bait stations,...

What’s all this talk about Facebook and Twitter? The other day I asked myself, “is there no longer any good reason to avoid Facebook or Twitter?” The sites have crossed a threshold — they are now so widely trafficked that it’s fast becoming a routine aide to social interaction, like e-mail and cell phones with more than 200 million users.
