Giveaway: Orkin Home Education Kit

Daddy brought home a female daddy longlegs last week.  Not so unusual, except she had a bunch of eggs in her pedipalps – pretty cool to see!  Esmé took Miss Spider to school with her, and when I picked her up, several little boys were standing around, fascinated with Miss Spider.

This weekend, Esmé had an insect encounter of the unpleasant kind.  We were at a church campout, and she was playing near a tree by the eating area with her 3yo cousin.  Suddenly she ran screaming from the tree, followed closely behind by a shrieking little Olivia.  Yellow jackets!  She was stung 5 times and pretty miserable for a while.  She’s mostly recovered, though still a bit itchy.  (Olivia had several stings as well.)

So, household pests are kind of cool and educational, but not always fun.

Is your home at risk?

The best way to protect your home is education. How much do you know about household pests? They don’t have a place in your home, but pests do have a place in the world. From science and forensics to art and culture, pests play an important role.
