The Bathroom – How to have it functioning correctly

The Bathroom – How to have it functioning correctly

Toilets
As with all plumbing fixtures toilets must be kept clean in order to last. Two simple methods of cleaning a toilet are with a brush and toilet cleaner or for more difficult stains a good cleanser and Scotchbrite sponge. Try to keep up under the rim as clean as possible as this is a place for the buildup of calcium deposits and mildew.
Avoid using bleach or blue tablets in the tank as this is hard on the rubber parts. If you must use them expect to be changing the flapper regularly.
Be sure to keep caps on the floor bolts or they will corrode quickly.plumber
Wipe down the sides and around the base with a light detergent or other cleaner.
Caulking around the base of the toilet is recommended for a neat appearance. Caulk must be kept clean to last.

Faucets
Keeping a faucet clean will help it keep its shine for a lifetime. A daily or regular wipe-down of a faucet will do wonders occasionally you may need to use a general-purpose cleaner or a cleanser for tough stains.
One way to protect the finish of a faucet is to give it a car waxing.
Chrome will far outlast other finishes because of its nature. A polished brass finish may loose its luster because contaminants get under the protective coating. Avoid purchasing polished brass fixtures.
Occasionally you will need to replace the aerator to obtain a nice aerated flow.

Tub/Showers
Take care of the chrome and brass in the same manor as a faucet, wiping it down daily. Clean with a non abrasive cleaner. Protect with car wax.
An important part of tub/shower maintenance is the caulking. Clean caulking regularly with a bleach based mildew killer. Replace the caulk if it is separating from the fixture as soon as possible. Be sure to caulk around the faucet controls and tub spout. see recaulking.plumbing services
Scrub walls and base with a non abrasive cleanser such as comet.
Seal tile grout on a regular basis as recommended by the manufacturer of the sealant..
To keep clear glass shiny, use a squeegee after every shower.

Drains
Never put anything down the drain except water, soap, toilet paper and human waste. Avoid allowing food down the drain, even with a garbage disposal.
Treat trouble drains such as the kitchen sink drain with an enzyme made for drains. The bacteria will dissolve buildup before it clogs the drain.
Try to keep hair out of the shower drain with a strainer.plumbing services
Pour bleach into drain and let stand for five minutes to destroy odors.

Exterminators – Local Pest Control

Exterminators – Local Pest Control

At the thought of your local neighborhood pest control dude, most people picture a man in a white space suit, wearing a gas mask, and spraying death in a thick, dark cloud of smelly fog. They may also imagine tiny, little innocent bugs inhaling toxic gases and dying on the spot, gasping for air while trying to shield their children from sudden death.Exterminators

This however, is a vision from fiction world. The truth is that pest control professional don’t wear scary suits and masks and bugs don’t live in villages made out of hamburger boxes. And mother bugs don’t wear aprons, while they make bug cookies for their bug children in their bug oven.

OK, lets get back to the real world.

Pest control men do not need protective suits and gas masks anymore. They do not spray thick fogs of poison that kill everything.

And bugs do not have ovens in their hamburger box houses.

So, is there anything that you should worry about when considering hiring a pest exterminator for you bug problem?

The honest truth is that you are much safer living in a bug free home, and chemicals are so much safer and eco friendly than what they used to be decades ago.

The scary pictures and images mentioned in the beginning come from science fiction movies and DDT from the 50’s. Modern day pest control techniques are far superior.

To start with, the pest control specialist that you hire will focus on permanent pest control. That will include making sure that the bugs that they kill never have the option of re invading your space. They will make sure that all nooks and crannies become frightening places of doom for bugs.

They also make sure that all of the eggs are destroyed as well, that way you won’t have any young ones hatching without appropriate parental control. Trust me, that is a HORRIBLE experience. Teenager bugs with no boundaries? Not a good thing.roach control

So, aside from not wanting unsupervised bugs in your home, why is it important to get rid of all of the bugs the first time around?

The answer is that you don’t want to propagate a new race of super bugs.

What does that mean?

It means that if you don’t kill all of the bugs and their eggs, the ones that survive can easily become resistant to the newest chemicals.

This is a huge problem. Its huge because becoming resistant basically means that the survivors are MUCH harder to kill. Plus, the can pass the resistance on to their offspring, thus creating a problem for everybody. Actually, this is why store bought chemicals are a really bad idea. You are basically just making the bugs harder to kill for the exterminator that you will eventually hire.

So, in summary, hiring a professional pest exterminator is a brilliant idea, and the sooner you act on it the better!
