article: Pour seven drops of essential oil in an empty 16 ounce (473.17 ml) glass spray bottle. Then fill the spray bottle up until until about one inch (2.54 cm) from the top with warm water. Use either peppermint, tea tree, citrus, lavender or neem essential oil, as these oils are proven to repel spiders. Try to use a glass spray bottle, as essential oils can sometimes react with plastic. Add a small squirt of liquid dish soap into the spray bottle, then place the top on the bottle and shake so that the mixture is combined. Because oil and water don't mix, dish soap is needed to break apart the oil molecules so that they can mix in with the water. Spray the essential oil spray on any entry points in your house, including around window frames, door cracks, and any crevices that you may notice in your home. Also spray any corners where spiders tend to congregate. If you are spraying furniture or carpets, keep in mind that the oil may leave a stain. Spot test an inconspicuous area of the upholstery or carpet by spraying and making sure the repellent doesn't alter its color before using. Natural repellents need to be reapplied more often than chemical-based ones, so make sure that you reapply the spray once a week.

article: Pursue opportunities to lead using your skills. Being a leader creates value in the skills you've developed and authority in your knowledge and experience. If people look up to you as a leader, they may expect you to be an expert, to make decisions, and to handle difficult situations. Having these roles can help you approach things in different ways and consider things in a new perspective. If you have an idea, don't wait for someone else to step up, go do it! Offer to oversee volunteer opportunities or organize a toy drive for children. You can step up at work and take on additional responsibilities or create new programs. Mentoring someone else who shares your interests is a great way to approach your interests in a new way. You now have a role as a teacher and guide, which means you have opportunities to creatively approach learning in new ways. Knowing that others are watching you or looking up to you can push you to do great work. Feeling competitive is both natural and healthy. Competition can also help us grow. Engage in some friendly competition with someone else who shares your skills. Compete to sell the most paintings in a month or create the most original designs. Find a business competitor and ask if there's interest for a short-term competition. It's easy to forget all the overwhelming positive feedback when you receive one negative comment. Keep in mind your passion for using your skills, and keep trying. Approach criticism as constructive, listen to what is said, don't be defensive, and realize that failure always accompanies risk. Realize that sometimes people are just mean. Take negative feedback with a grain of salt, see what can be improved, and move on. This can be a great way to network and to keep up-to-date in your field. Whether it's a professional organization or a hobby convention, joining with other people in a formal setting can help you improve your skills or keep them sharp. Attend workshops or lectures provided by the organization. Immerse yourself with the culture. You may experience temporary lulls in productivity, or feel like your work has become stagnant. Don't give up. Find creative ways to approach your difficulties, then keep going. Do it, master it, then improve it.

Dispensing of your dog's poop may not be as easy as just throwing it in your trash can or flushing it down a toilet. If you are unsure, check with your local waste department to learn the acceptable methods of throwing away your dog's poop. If you are at home, you can use your own trashcan to dispense of your dog's poop. Keep in mind that your main trashcan could get quite stinky, especially if you keep your trash can inside or enclosed in your garage. To address this potential problem, you could keep a smaller, separate trashcan outside to collect your dog's poop. When it is time to take your trash out, could transfer the dog poop to the larger trash can and set everything outside. If you are at a dog park or in another public area, you can find the nearest outdoor trashcan to throw away the poop. Dog parks usually have dedicated trashcans for collecting dog poop. Although the imagery may be quite unpleasant, it usually okay to flush your dog's poop down the toilet. If you do this, make sure that you dump the poop out of the bag first. If you have a flushable doggie bag, you could put the entire bag and its contents in the toilet and flush. Flushing may not be acceptable in your city, so check with your local waste department before using this method of pet waste disposal. If you have a lot of poop to get rid of, do not flush it all at one time. This could clog your septic system. Be aware that flushable doggie bags may be expensive. This is an underground septic system, called a doggie dooley, that is specific for breaking down your dog's waste. This could be helpful if you have your own yard. A doggie dooley is relatively easy to install, but you should consult with someone at your local pet store before installing and using one in your yard. Once you have installed the doggie dooley, you would follow the machine's instructions to add water and a digestive powder to your dog's waste. The waste would break down into an environmentally safe liquid that would be absorbed into the ground. If you are genuinely uncomfortable with picking up your dog's waste in your yard, or are unable to do so, you can contact a pet waste disposal service that can remove it for you. Your veterinarian may be able to recommend reputable services. You could also talk to other dog owners for recommendations. Keep in mind that these services may be expensive. Several potential methods of disposal are not appropriate due to public health and environmental concerns. For example, you should not leave simply your dog's poop in your yard to break down on its own. Not only would the poop begin to smell and attract flies (especially in the warmer months), it could contain bacteria and parasites that would be harmful to dogs as well as people. In addition, your dog's waste could get swept into storm drains and eventually end up in local water sources if you leave the poop in your yard. Composting your dog's waste is also not advisable because the compost pile would not get hot enough to break down the bacteria and parasites that may be in the poop. Burying your dog's poop could also expose the local groundwater to pathogens, making this an undesirable method to dispose of it. Even with proper precaution with keeping your hands clean, you may still get bacteria on your hands when picking up your dog's waste. Frequent hand washing is an effective way to avoid spreading these germs.
