St. Louis, Missouri (March 28, 2018)- Ants can be one of the most annoying insects, always getting into your food and gathering in unwanted places. While ants seem harmless, they can actually cause serious damage to your homes, as well as spread diseases. There are two types of ants that are especially common in Missouri, the Carpenter Ant and the Odorous House Ant. Each is unique in appearance, damages they can cause, and how they should be treated. Knowing how to correctly identify ant species is important when trying to find the proper treatment.

Since there are over 12,000 species of ants, it may take an expert to identify the differences. Mick’s Exterminating specializes in pest control services in the St. Charles area and has been delivering exceptional service for more than 40 years. They recommend calling immediately if any ant related issues occur, but they also want clients to know some tips to keep ants from popping up inside your home in the future.

TIPS:

-Don’t leave crumbs lying around and make sure to seal food containers: Some ants feed off of these food sources, so eliminating them may eliminate the ants.

-Seal off entrances: Know where the ants are getting in and using caulk, putty, or glue to seal off those entrance points.

-Use chemicals from an exterminator: Treatment or chemicals for ant prevention is recommended, but if that is too much at the time, putting down a layer of duct tape sticky side up can trap these bugs in urgent matters.

Mick’s Exterminating offers free estimates and would love to assist with any pest-related issues or questions you may have about our St. Louis termite exterminator.

College Entrance Exam Season is Here

The academic year is well underway and with a new academic year comes test-taking season, which calls for Saint Louis tutoring services.  Every year, high schoolers across the country take college entrance exams.  The two most popular tests, the ACT and SAT, are required by nearly all colleges throughout the US.  Depending on where an individual lives, the student might take the ACT or the SAT.  Regardless of what test a student takes, the scores are crucial to acceptance at a college or university.  Without these scores, or with low scores, high school students might miss out on college acceptance.  With that said, here’s everything you need to know about the ACT and SAT test.


The ACT Test

The ACT test was first administered in the late 1950s and aimed at serving as an alternative to the SAT.  The ACT slowly grew in popularity, mainly throughout the Midwest US.  However, in the 2000s, the ACT test served a comparable role to the SAT test and in 2011, surpassed the SAT in popularity.  Today, the ACT is as widely accepted and recognized as the SAT test.

The ACT test is scored on a scale from 1 to 36 with 36 being the highest score possible.  A 36 is a perfect score and is the desired score for a student.  The test features Math, Science, English, and Reading with an optional writing test.  Students have over three hours to complete the ACT.  The ACT is typically administered on Saturdays.  Throughout the 2017-2018 academic year, the following test dates are offered;

  • September 9th
  • October 28th
  • December 9th
  • February 10th
  • April 14th
  • June 9th
  • July 14th

The SAT Test

The SAT test has been available to students since 1924 and since its inception has been widely accepted by colleges and higher level institutions.  However, unlike the ACT test which has remained fairly unchanged, the SAT has changed drastically.  Today, the ACT 2 as it’s commonly known, is offered in addition to individual subject tests.  The SAT is especially popular on the east and west coasts.

The SAT test is scored on a scale from 0 to 1600 with 1600 being a perfect score.  The SAT test features mathematics and critical reading and writing with additional subject test available.  Students have 3 to 4 hours to complete the test.  The SAT is typically administered on Saturdays and is offered on the following dates throughout 2017 and 2018;

  • August 26th
  • October 7th
  • November 4th
  • December 2nd
  • March 10th
  • May 5th
  • June 2nd

Purchasing a Home Doesn’t Have to be a Challenge for Veterans

St. Louis, Missouri (March 7th, 2018)- Veterans have done a tremendous amount for our country in their past, but they tend to face many challenges upon being discharged and returning home. Some of the challenges they face include unemployment, homelessness, poor mental health, disabilities/physical injuries, and lack of education. Many of these veterans are unemployed due to disabilities or joining the military right out of high school causing them to lack higher education and experience. This unemployment rate can lead to homelessness as well. Roughly one-third of all homeless Americans are veterans, which can stem from disabilities or PTSD. Poor mental health can come from the horrible things they experienced while serving, leading to PTSD. Suicides and depression are extremely too high in the armed force community because of the multitude of these struggles. All of these factors go hand in hand and can lead to one another, causing veterans to sometimes live unfulfilled lives.

Since many veterans are unemployed and homeless, it can be extremely difficult for them to get their lives back on track. Purchasing a primary home could be a challenge, luckily it has been made easier by the VA home loan. These loans make it easier for veterans to get 100% financing to purchase their St. Louis home loan. Another benefit is there is no down payment required, as well as no monthly private mortgage insurance. They roll in all of your closing costs into your loan so that you don’t have to come up with that money either. At Liberty Lending Consultants St. Louis mortgage companies, they ensure the fixed rates are awesome, no matter the length of the loan. Last, they waive the VA funding fee for veterans disabled in the line of duty. Consider getting a St. Louis VA home loan to get back in control of your life.
