Formaldehyde in Orlando

3/5/2015

Picture
Formaldehyde is a colorless, pungent-smelling chemical widely used in industries that manufacture building materials and numerous household products. Thus, it may be present in substantial concentrations in indoor environments.

Recently it has been discovered that Lumber Liquidators may have sold products to consumers that contain an excessively high levels of formaldehyde. A google search of the company will turn up many results linking them to health and safety violations. 

Formaldehyde is known to cause the following symptoms:
  • Watery eyes
  • Burning eyes and throat
  • Nausea
  • Wheezing, coughing, and restrictive breathing
  • asthma attacks
  • fatigue
  • skin rash

If you believe you have these symptoms or have purchased the possibly defective products from Lumber Liquidators, consider testing your home's levels.

Orlando Pest Control

Orlando Pest Control
Orlando pest control companies do a lot of business around here, because we have a lot of issues. The picture to the right is a picture of a termite control trap. Termite treatment takes a real professional to do it properly, but you can still educate yourself to make sure it is being done properly or to at least know if you are buying a home that is being treated.

There are many opinions on what I am about to say, so take it as you will. A good pest control company will generally spray and do injection treatment, and then leave these discs in the yard to monitor activity and/or try to kill the colony.

When was the last time you had an Orlando pest control operator to your home? Or even just a pest inspection? Contact me today and I will be happy to help answer your questions!

Below is a classic hot-neutral-reverse wired outlet (just switch the wires around). Remember, white to silver and black to gold when you are wiring an outlet

And last but not least, the classic leaky roof
