I was trying to get paint in the joints, the bottom and sides of the roofing) beams that rested in the notch. The flies could not stand the) odor so they swarmed out. I caulked up all the joints and that ended the problem. I cleared up the situation in two weeks." Another illustration of the basic fact that the best way to get rid of insect pests, is to chase them out, and not give them a chance to return!

ANSWER: Try placing some very heavy weights on the high) spots of the floor. If there is no} improvement after a couple of weeks, and the height of the buckle is not too great, sand down the floor surface, or even plane it down, to the level of the surrounding floor area If the buckle straightens from the weights on top, fasten the boards to the subflooring, with wood screws long enough to pene- trate the beams the head. Fill the dents with putty-like material in stick form to match surrounding floor fin- ish. CARPET STORAGE QUESTION: We have two good Oriental carpets which I want to store away for six months to protect them against moth damage. What is the best way to do this? ANSWER: Some professional rug-cleaning services also pro vide storage facilities. Thi would be the safest method Carpets should be thoroughi: cleaned on both sides and, if possible, hung out in the sun and air for several hours, They should be packed away rolled up in heavy paper stores), preferably pole, in order to prevent creas- ing. Put plenty of moth killing preparations ("para" or cam- phor flakes, balls, etc.). Seal the bundle up so that there are no cracks or openings by which moths can enter. Gummed paper or scotch tape is conven- ient-for this. Do ndét store in the cellar; storage space should be absolutely dry. DULL MARKS ON LEATHER QUESTION: How can I re- move dull lamp marks from a shiny leathertop table? ANSWER: Try wiping the marks with a cream, wax made by a nationally known manufacturer and available, at supermarkets, hardware and variety stores Sometimes, buffing the affected area with a soft Turkish towe! is successful in removing this type of mark.
