February 5, 2010, Newsletter Issue #142: Insect repellent

Tip of the Week

Before you insulate your walls, sprinkle a little borax (like 20 Mule Team) in the wall cavities to help repel insects. It also works to sprinkle it around the garage, in cabinets, and in small openings around the exterior walls. It doesnīt kill them, but they donīt like being around it and will leave the area.
