Cleaning Tips for a Carpet Infested with Pinworms

Usually pinworms can be found in the intestinal tract. Anyone can suffer from a pinworm infestation, but most often elementary school-age children got infected. The eggs of these worms are sticky and can adhere to surfaces such as bedding, carpets, clothing and more soft materials. Sometimes it is hard to tell whether your carpet is infested with pinworms. However, in general, if a member of your family has pinworms, it is very likely the worms are already on your floor covering as well. So, in this article I will show you how to cope with this problem. Just take into account that it is not an instant process- actually it is quite long – a couple of weeks are needed for best results.

Do it Yourself Hawaiian Fishing Spear

Hawaiian Fishing Spear

Homemade Hawaiian fishing spear

Hello all.

Today I`m going to share with you how to make a Hawaiian spear or as you might find it Hawaiian Sling Pole Spear.

This is NOT a toy. It is a DANGEROUS weapon. Use it with caution!

You will need a few things that can easily be found in almost every household.

  1. For the pole you can use an old fishing rod, an aluminium pole, an old skiing pole (2 or 3 of these) or just a bamboo/wooden staff.
  2. For the prongs/tip you can use anything from old bike spokes or long nails to any type of stainless steel shafts.
