FALLING LEAVES
The autum brings breathtaking beauty to the people in Northern
climates. The leaf clean-up, of course, is a story of quite a different color. Remember
that the leaders and gutters of every home catches the leaves. If you don't remove them,
they are apt to cause serious problems over the winter. An excellent preventive measure is
to install galvanized chicken wire in strips, cut just wide enough to fit snugly across
the width of the gutter. They can be installed during the cleaning process. These wire
protectors can also be found a major hardware stores. Believe us when we tell you that the
cost is well worth doing.
FIRE PLACES
It's not much fun when you decide to build a roaring fire for that
romantic evening at home, only to discover that a troop of squirrels have set up residence
in your chimney! To check for obstructions, use a flashlight and drop a weight on a string
down the chimney. Install a spark arrester, which also serves as a bird and animal fence.
