Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Throw out fruit that has started to rot or keep fresh produce in the fridge. Keep your sink clean and clear of dirty dishes. Empty the trashes in your home daily if there are food scraps in them. Move plants with damp soil outdoors if they're attracting gnats.

Answer: Gnats love fruits that have started to get a little ripethe sweet smell attracts them by the dozens. When you can, store fruits in the fridge. If you notice that fruit on the counter is starting to rot or attract bugs, throw it out or compost it. Similarly, if you collect food scraps for composting, don't leave the bucket or bowl exposed in the kitchen. Use a covered container, or take scraps directly outside to the compost heap. Gnats love moist areas, especially if any food bits are laying around. Make it a goal to wash your dishes or load them into the dishwasher right after you eat. At the least, make sure to clean the dishes and your sink at the end of each day to prevent dirty dishes from attracting gnats. Don't leave prepared food sitting out on the counter for longer than 30 minutes. Store food in reusable containers and put them into the fridge as soon as possible. If you have a garbage disposal, make sure to run it after rinsing off your dishes so that food scraps don't accumulate in there. You may not need to do this in rooms where food isn't getting thrown away, but in your kitchen, it can definitely help keep away gnats to take the trash out at the end of each day. Similarly, if you have open trash cans outside, make sure they aren't located next to any windows. The gnats could be attracted to the trash and then find their way indoors through the window. If you notice gnats congregating around your favorite houseplant, that might mean its soil is too damp and needs to dry out a little bit. Set it outside or in a garage or shed for a few days until the soil starts to dry out. If this doesn't work, you may want to repot your plants in fresh soil. On the flip side, there are a few plants that repel gnats. These can be potted and kept indoors, or you can plant then outside if you struggle with gnat infestations outdoors. Geraniums, lemon thyme, lavender, and marigolds are the best natural repellants.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Plant native trees and shrubs. Keep dead trees in your garden. Create a brush pile. Remove invasive plant species from your garden. Reduce the lawn area in your yard.

Answer: Local birds love native plants because they provide a great food source. Habitat loss is one of the leading causes of population declines among birds, and as a result, it is very important to grow native plant species. Select a variety of native plants that will offer birds year round food in the form of berries, nuts, and nectar. The best way to create a plentiful garden year round, is to mimic the plant ecosystem native to the area. Plants will also give birds shelter from potential predators, and natural nesting sites. Here are a few plant suggestions: Black-eyed Susans and Sunflowers: Are an excellent source of food for some birds because their seeds and flowers are edible. Ferns, thistles, and sumacs: Are great for producing materials that birds use while constructing nests. Crabapples, Dogwoods, and Serviceberries: Are a great source of food and provide birds with small edible fruits and berries. Coniferous trees: Pines and Spruce trees, for example, provide birds with cover and protection from predator species as well as sap and seeds for eating. They also make great nesting sites for many birds. Deciduous trees: Oak, Cherry, and Hickory trees, to name a few, provide birds with nesting sites as well as multiple food sources. For instance, these trees often produce edible nuts and are home to a variety of insects. Dead trees can provide birds with a source of shelter and food. For example, dead trees will often contain hollow areas and alcoves that birds can use for nesting or to seek shelter from the weather. Insects are also often found on dead trees and can provide birds with a great source of food. Brush piles can provide birds with an area to hunt, roost, and even nest. Begin by putting down a few large logs, then add some smaller branches and leaves. This is relatively easy and can be a great way to make use of garden clippings after you have pruned the trees, hedges, and shrubs in your garden. Brush piles also contain many insects and will provide ground feeders with an excellent food source. For instance, some bird species will never land on, or use, a bird feeder because they like to eat insects off the ground. Robins, Towhees, and Thrashers, for example, will use these piles as a food source. Invasive plants will compete with native plants for space, water, and sunlight. They can often out-compete the plants that are preferred by local bird and insect populations. As a result, you should minimize and remove the number of invasive species that are planted within your garden. Large areas of manicured lawn provides very little of substance for bird populations. If you want to attract birds to your garden, you should reduce the lawn area and ensure that the garden is filled with local plants, water sources, and feeders. Manicured grass is essentially wasted space and requires more maintenance in the form of mowing, watering, and fertilizing.
