Cockatiels require daily care and attention, and can be noisy and messy pets. With proper care, they can live for more than twenty years! Before purchasing a Cockatiel, you should consider the following questions (and include anyone else who lives with you in the discussion): How much money am I prepared to spend? While Cockatiels are not very expensive to purchase($80 to $100 or more), they need sizable cages, and plenty of toys and other enrichment items. In addition, you will need to take your Cockatiel to the vet for annual examination. How much time can I spend with my Cockatiel? Unless someone is at home most of the day, a single Cockatiel is likely to be lonely. Paired Cockatiels will need less attention, but you'll still have to give them daily attention and care. Am I sensitive to noise and mess? Though Cockatiels are not extremely noisy, they will be vocal in the morning and evening, and can create big messes. If you're a neat freak or hate being woken up early in the morning, a Cockatiel might not be right for you. How long am I prepared to care for a pet? Because Cockatiels can live for upwards of twenty years, consider your dedication carefully before purchasing. If you are underage, consider who will care for your Cockatiel if you cannot keep it while at college. The cage should be at least at least 2 feet (0.6m) tall with a 20-inch width and 18-inch depth, but a larger cage is recommended. The cage should have bars no more than 3/4 of an inch apart. Stainless steel cages are recommended. Because zinc and lead are poisonous to birds, the cage should also be guaranteed to not contain these materials. Additionally, because Cockatiels love to climb around their cage, the cage should have at least a few horizontal bars. Cockatiels, like any pet bird, require things to keep them entertained in their cages. You will need to purchase: Two food bowls and a water bowl. You will need need separate bowls for the dry and wet bird food (wet food will be items like fruit, cooked beans, etc.) A skirt for the cage to catch thrown seed. Lots of perches for the cage. Cockatiels like to climb and play so lots of perches will make your cockatiel very happy. You will notice that your cockatiel will choose one perch as his home base (the perch where he will sleep.) A bunch of toys for your Cockatiel to play with. Buy several toys and rotate them every week so that your bird isn't bored. Cockatiels love to chew, so toys like twig balls, or rafia and palm strips are best. Though not necessary, purchasing cleaning supplies, such as poop remover and a handheld vacuum, is a good idea. You will also need to purchase a cuttlebone for calcium; this is particularly important for female Cockatiels, who can get egg binding problems (females will lay eggs without a male; they'll just be unfertilized).

There are no government licensing or certification processes for mold inspectors in the U.S. This means that anyone can work in a mold-inspection capacity. To find a good mold inspector, work with an individual who is a licensed general contractor. Make sure that they have performed mold-inspection tests before, and have a reliable laboratory test their samples. For a list of mold inspectors in your local area, visit: https://www.mold-advisor.com/mold-test-professional.html. Mold is inevitable within most houses. Ask the contractor what strategies they recommend for mold cleaning and prevention. Most types of mold are cleaned through the same means, so the type(s) of mold discovered in your house will have little effect on the way in which you remove them. Follow up with other relevant questions, like: "How many test samples do you typically take?" "How many times have you worked with this mold-testing laboratory before?" The moisture assessment that a mold inspector can provide is frequently more useful than the air and surface tests. A moisture assessment will allow you to determine where water or moisture is entering your home, which in turn will show you the locations where mold is most likely to grow. Mold swab tests have limited usefulness. Mold spores blow through the air, so if there is mold on one surface in your home, it's likely that it's on several other surfaces. Inspectors who are only trying to turn a profit can use various tricks to scam you or overcharge you. Make sure that you are home when the inspection is taking place, so that you can spot any shady practices. Avoid working with a company that will both test for mold and remove any mold it finds. These companies often go out of their way to "find" mold so that they can charge you to remove it. Unethical inspectors will turn up the heat in your house and shake out rugs indoors, in order to increase the number of mold spores in the air.
