Article: Since silverfish are nocturnal, you may not see them during the day. Rather, you'll probably become aware of their presence because of what they leave behind. Look for damp, dark areas with small spots of excrement that look like black pepper. Small holes and yellowish stains on clothing, wallpaper, cereal boxes, and other cardboard or fabric materials also indicate they're nearby. Finally, silverfish shed their skin, so you can look around for tiny skin casts in your bathroom, basement and other areas where you suspect they live. Take a quart-sized mason jar or another glass container. Wrap the outside of the container with a piece of masking tape. Place a piece of bread at the bottom of the glass. Set the glass in an area where you suspect silverfish reside. Make sure to wrap tape all the way to the top. The silverfish will climb into the glass to eat the bread, but they'll be unable to get back out, since the glass is too slippery. Use the traps at night, when silverfish come out to feed. Roll up a newspaper, band the ends with elastic, and moisten it. Set it out where you often see silverfish leavings before you go to bed. In the morning, silverfish will have eaten their way into the newspaper, since you've provided them with both food and a cozy environment. Throw the newspapers away (without unrolling them) or burn them. Repeat every night until you don't see any more signs of silverfish. Make as many traps as necessary to trap the silverfish in your home. Depending on the severity of your infestation, you may need to set them out several nights in a row. If you don't want silverfish touching your glassware, you can buy traps designed to catch them from a hardware store. Any type of sticky traps will work. Buy some "roach motels" or smaller traps you can set around to catch the silverfish. You can bait them with small pieces of bread or another starch.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Figure out where they're lurking. Set out homemade glass silverfish traps. Try newspaper traps. Use store-bought traps.
Article: Before you begin creating your tattoo, think about the type of tattoo you want and the location you want it. If you are doing your tattoo yourself you may want a simpler tattoo in an easy place to reach, like your wrist. If you have a friend to help you, you can do a more complicated tattoo in an area that is harder for you to reach. This picture is going to serve as a stencil, meaning you will cut the middle of it out and use it as your pattern on your arm. Therefore, you should choose a picture or drawing that will look good without any details inside of it. After you have printed out or drawn your image on paper, you will want to cut around the edges, but on the inside of the picture. It could be helpful to color in the picture, and then cut out the colored part. This should leave you with a piece of paper with an image cut out from the middle of it. If you aren't interested in drawing or printing out your tattoo, or don't trust your art skills, you can usually find stencils at a craft or dollar store. Once you have chosen the location for your tattoo, place the stencil you have created on your body and tape it down to hold it in place. You'll want to stretch your skin so that your tattoo doesn't stretch out and become distorted once you are done creating it. If you are doing your tattoo on a part of your skin that doesn't stretch, like the inside of your arm, you should be able to get an accurate tattoo by just taping down the stencil to hold it into place. Once you have secured your stencil in place, draw a thin edge inside of the stencil to create the border of your tattoo. Then, remove the stencil and trace over the edges to create a thicker, cleaner border. If you are worried about your drawing skills, you can use nail polish pens that will make it easier to create clean lines. After you have created the border for your tattoo, it's time to dress it up and make it exactly as you want it. You can use a solid color nail polish for the whole tattoo, or you can change it up by adding different color nail polishes to your tattoo. If you are unhappy with your tattoo, the benefit of using nail polish is it is very easy to remove your tattoo and create another. Simply apply nail polish remover to a cotton ball and wipe away your tattoo. Allow the area to dry before you apply another tattoo. You can also use the same methods to create a similar type of tattoo, but instead of using nail polish as the main coloring for your tattoo, you can mix any color eyeshadow with a clear nail polish, and then apply as you would the nail polish tattoo. This will likely create a smoother look than nail polish as eyeshadow tends to have a softer look.

Article: This is the program you will be using write and edit your code. Notepad can be accessed on any version of Windows using Win + R > Notepad. TextEdit can be accessed on Mac by going to Applications > TextEdit. A section of PHP code begins and ends with bracketed PHP tags ("<?php" "?>"). "Echo" is a very basic statement (an instruction to the computer) in the PHP language that will output text to the screen. The text you want to echo must be enclosed in quotation marks and end in a semi-colon. The code should look something like <?php echo "Hello World!"; ?>. This is done by navigating to File > Save As... In Notepad, add .php to the end of the filename and enclose in double quotations. This ensures the file will not be converted into a basic text file by Notepad. Without the quotation marks, the file will become hello world.php.txt. Alternatively, you can select the drop down menu under Save as type and change it to "All Files (*.*)" which will leave the name exactly how you type it and the quotes will not be needed. In TextEdit, no quotations marks are necessary, but a popup will appear asking you to verify that you want the file saved as .php. Make sure you save the file to your "server's" document root directory. Typically this is the folder named "htdocs" in your Apache folder on Windows, or /Library/Webserver/Documents on Mac, but can be set by the user manually.
