    Herbicide T chnology

    Impr ves W ed Control

    It may be ell worth the effort to make the

    lawn around our home lush-green nd weed

    free, but with the herbicide restrictions of today,

    achieving this has becom a big effort indeed.Excessive weeds n the front lawn are s

    unsightly, homeo ners ay, as the appearance

    of excessive peeling paint. A weed-infested

    back lawn s also a downer if all you want for

    your summer i a pretty retreat here the kids

    can play, without he fear of twisting an nkle

    or knee on poor turf, nd where adults can rest

    and r evitalize.

    Lawn care scientists ave been xperimenting

    tirelessly with herbicides to create products

    that work effectively to kill weeds, but are far

    less damaging to the environment, says Reinie

    Drygala, lawncare products manager for Clear

    Choice, a leading name in innovative gardenproducts. Our researchers, with the assistance

    of many leading university urf scientists over

    a six ear period, produced a breakthrough in

    selective weed control technology.

    When shopping for greener products, o take

    a look at the claims on he Clear Choice label.

    The product contains up to 85 percent less active

    ingredients as compared to other products using

    thesameingredients.Asimportant, Clear Choice,

    utilizing microtechnology, delivers an advanced

    formula of v ry tin droplets that penetrate into

    the weed more efficiently.

    This consistency reduces he amount of

    active ingredient required to ill the majority

    of broadleaf weeds, Drygala explains. It is

    effective on t least 60 varieties, including

    dandelions, clover nd plantains while being

    friendly to your lawn.

    Currently this product s only av ilable at

    specialty lawn ndgarden toreswithinformation

    at: www.todaysclearchoice.com. For spot-spraying of weeds, the uniquely esigned 24

    fluid ounce bottle will do the job. For those with

    a larger property with many weeds, the larger 1

    US Gallon) size bottle is likely best for the job.

    If youre lso growing flowers, fruits vegetables

    or shrubs, the ister product called PureSpray

    Green offers year-round disease and nsect

    control, says Drygala. The ll-in-one, organic

    listed formula is reen enough so hat ardeners

    can feel fine about spraying it on vegetables,

    fruit, flowers and hrubs.

    Remodelin basement i popular home

    improvement project. A finished basement

    makesthespacemore functional and,when

    done correctly, can add a considerable

    amount of living space to a home.

    Finishing a basement ay dividends in

    additional space in a home that doesn't

    require the same level of investment s

    putting an addition on the house. Also, the

    groundwork for a finished room is already

    there, as most basements re already setup with a poured concrete floor and some

    walls,usuallycinderblocks.Someelectrical

    components, plumbing and the reature

    comforts of dr wall and a more inviting

    floor might be ll that's necessary to finish

    basement. The be labor

    intensive, and many people prefer to leave

    it to a professional contractor. Whatever

    finishing method is chosen, homeowners

    should follow the proper procedures when

    doing the work.

    start with a detailed plan. Measure ut

    the basement and mark ny items that

    cannot be moved, such as furnace,waterheater or pipes. Create a design board

    that showcases the materials you plan to

    use on the project. Think about ways you

    plan to arrang furniture and consider all

    of the possible uses for the room.Will it be

    The DosAnd Donts Of Basement Finishinga home theater? Will omeone be sleeping

    down there? Each scenario will require

    certain amenities and safety requirements.

    plan to finish the entire basement.

    Doing so will leave you without a storage

    or utility area where you house holiday

    decorations, tools, luggage nd similar

    items.

    what the municipality llows in basementremodeling will help you to customize a plan

    that is functional, safe and legal. No one

    wants to be slapped with fines for failing to

    follow therules.Plus,failureto meetbuilding

    codes could mean the work that has been

    done must be torn ut and redone. It pays

    to follow the chain of command nd secure

    permits while having all work inspected.

    overlook adequate lighting in your

    refinishing plan. A basement is likely one

    area f the house that has limited natural

    light pouring in. With traditionally small

    windows, or no windows at ll, basementneeds ample lighting in its design scheme.

    This may include a combination of overhead

    and task lighting.Ample lighting will help the

    room feel like part of the house nd not just

    a forgotten storage rea.

    take into consideration moisture issues

    in the basement. Many basements are

    plagued by moisture issues ranging from

    water seepage to condensation forming on

    walls. These situations may vary epending

    on the weather throughout the year. Certain

    materials may need to be used to mitigate

    water issues before finishing can take place.

    The installation of water-barrier systems,

    drainage, ump pumps, r encapsulation

    products ould drive up the ost of a

    basement renovation. It is ssential to havea professional assess the basement water

    issues prior to starting any finishing work.

    simply cover up potential hazards,

    such as mold or mildew. Have them treated

    instead. Otherwise, you ould have a

    breeding ground behind drywall that could

    lead to unsafe conditions in the home.

    have a radon test. Radon i a hidden

    killer that can cause lung cancer. Because

    it occurs naturally in the oil and water

    surroundin home and is impossible to

    detect without a specialized test, many

    people are unaware f the presence fradon until it is too late. Radon may be more

    concentrated in the basement, where the

    foundation is touching the soil. Therefore,

    rule ut radon before considering renovation

    of a basement area.

    limit furniture choices to n

    type. You may need to be flexible in your

    furniture choices, even selecting modular

    pieces, like sectionals, because entryways

    to basements may have small oorways

    r obstructions that make adding furniture

    more challenging.

    keep the possibility of flooding in the

    b ack f our head . Homes th at r ea

    waterways or at low elevation may be at

    risk of flooding. Basements re especially

    usceptible to flood damage. Therefore,

    think about the practicality of finishing a

    basement if to flooding. If

    you decide to move ahead, take certain

    precautionar measures, such as keeping

    electrical wiring up higher and using a

    more water-resistant flooring material, like

    tile or vinyl. House important electronics

    and items on shelves so they are not at

    ground-level.

    Finishing a basement is a job that can add

    a lot f usable space to a home. o about

    the project in the right way to keep within

    budget and have a room that i safe and

    functional.
