Meats, gravies, vegetables and casseroles are also excellent environments for the organisms that cause food-borne illnesses. Food-safety experts recommend reheating leftover meats, vegetables and casseroles to 165 degrees Fahrenheit and leftover gravies, sauces and soups to the boiling point. Our Scotch pine is oozing sap. Check for holes, which often reveal activity by such insects as bark beetles under the bark. The holes can be as small as pinholes.
Some insects also leave large, very obvious wads of pitch on the trunk.
If you're uncomfortable with the amount of sap or pitch coming out of your tree, Barkley recommends contacting the UI Cooperative Extension educator in your county for a diagnosis. Look for an environment that is clean, safe and comfortable, so that your child will learn to explore, play and feel secure. Look for many kinds of toys, books, sights, sounds and materials to experience so that she can experiment, practice solving problems and be stimulated to learn. Talk to the caregiver and observe how your baby is stimulated and nurtured.
