Finding the right place to live can be a problem for anyone. It can be especially difficult for wildlife if there is no appropriate habitat available. That makes our homes look very cozy to cold and hungry creatures, especially after a hard winter. Early March is the mating season for many species, so the search for suitable living quarters is beginning. Right now is the time to protect your home from the inevitable invasion. Holes in the foundation, siding, outbuildings, eaves, roofs and uncapped chim­ neys are open invitations to wildlife. If you discover holes, look for tracks, bits of fur clinging to the hole, smudges of dirt, pieces of food, droppings or telltale nesting materials. If you find any or all of these signs of wildlife habitation, you should immediately start the eviction process. Animals need a dark, quiet, warm and secure place to rest and if these conditions don't exist anymore, they will leave. To eliminate darkness, place a mechanic's trouble light in or near the animal's living space. A nearby radio, preferably playing rock music or talk shows, will eliminate the quiet. Or you can deliberately create noise by banging on walls or flues. Make your presence known. The more you can disturb your uninvited guests, the quicker they will leave. If the animal has young, do not block the hole for a few days, but keep the lights and radio going. This additional time will give the mother a chance to find another place to take her young. Do not remove the young or block - the mother out. You may end up with more damage, because animals, like humans, will go to a lot of trouble to retrieve their young. Animals do not like sleeping in a wet bed, so you should soak hard-to-reach dens. Rags soaked with ammonia and moth balls . have also been found to be iffecUse detjerrants to, îtmrr;1Wefri!iT&tht)ds: atoly W dflfWl spaces, burrows, and holes. If these steps are taken, the animal should leave quickly. When that happens, pull up the welcome mat for future furry guests. You can do this by making repairs, often sturdy ones, depending on the wildlife involved and the location of its den. For instance, a squirrel will gnaw through a piece of wood patched over a hole, but will be discouraged by a piece of sheet metal or wood treated with chemical preservatives. A skunk won't be discouraged by a quickly patched crawl space - he'll just burrow under it. A piece of sheet metal that extends below the ground will be much more effective at keeping him out. And a screen won't discourage a raccoon, but strong hard­ ware cloth bolted in place will. A little research on the lifestyle of the invader may go a long way toward solving the problem. The least effective methods of dealing with this problem of home invasion are trapping and poisoning. Both are short-term solutions because they only eliminate one animal while leaving the situation intact. For any one animal who has been trapped or poisoned, another is sure to take his place. Poison only leaves you with a dead animal, possibly in an inaccessible place, with its ac­ companying odor and at­ traction for bugs. A trap may injure the animal or actually catch the wrong animal. These methods do not alter the animal's con­ tinuing needs for food, water, shelter, and a place to reproduce. Garbage presents an unlimited food supply, so you should keep it in metal cans where it will not be ac­ cessible to wildlife. Am­ monia poured onto the plastic bags may discourage animals from seeking food there. But before we close the door forever on our furry friends who so desperately need shelter, let's take a look around our property for natural animal habitats. Tree cavities or hollow logs and wood piles so badly needed for nest and rest - are they readily available? If you don't find anything remotely resembling a wildlife habitat, then it's time Ip put up some nesting boxes or plant some trees and shrubs.

Nimmo has initiated collection procedures to recover the costs of medical treatment given free to VA employees who said they couldn't afford private treatment of non- service connected con­ ditions. Other VA employees who are veterans, he said, should consider carefully their eligibility for non-service connected care before ap­ plying for such care from the agency in the future. Nimmo said he is carrying out a Congressional mandate to insure that VA medical care is provided for non- service connected problems only to veterans clearly eligible for it. His initial step was to seek payment from 465 VA per­ sonnel treated for non- service connected medical problems between Oct. 1, 1977, and Sept. 30, 1978. He told agency officials around the country that this action "is a first step in VA's program to recover costs from all ineligible federal employees who v have received care from VA medical facilities for non- service connected con­ ditions." But he emphasized that VA officials are to use BEER Served by the Prettiest Bartenders In Town! -- St. Pot's Day Wednesday, March 17 ALL YOU CAN-EAT CORNED BEEFs|.g5 & CABBAGE J i MARCH 17 0^' 1232 N.GREEN ST..

He stressed that the closer look now being taken at non- service connected medical care does not in any way endanger the right to medical care among veterans with service related conditions. He assured also that veterans with non-service related conditions who are un­ dergoing true financial hardship will not be denied quality VA health care. Dear Colleen Dear Colleen: How do you handle a free­ loader? There is one girl in our group of friends-since-gram- mar-school who is always short on cash and long on promises. I'm so tired of hearing, "I'll pay you back at school tomor­ row" that I don't know what to do. I might not be so upset if I didn't know that my freeloading friend comes from a well-to-do family and has her own spend­ ing allowance. Any suggestions? Tapped Dear Tapped: Check with your other friend* and see if they feel the same way you do about the situation. If so, it's easy to do something about it. Your freeloading friend will have to show her true colors if everyooe in the crowd is short on cash. Dear Colleen: Several months ago I found out that a lifelong friend had been telling my boyfriend things about me that were untrue. When the truth came out, she was very apologetic and admit­ ted she had a crush on him and wanted to break us up. She still tries to be my friend but I refuse to forgive her. Some of my friends, and my parents, tell me I am wrong. What do you think? Unforgiving Dear Unforgiving: I think to err is human and a refusal of forgiveness may impose a far greater hardship on the injured than the injurer. When we harbor a hate or nurse a grudge, we continue to be in­ fluenced by something that others have long forgotten.
