Professional wildlife removal industry has been a big help to the people of city who find removal of pests a pretty tough job.

Storified by Freyaw Yatt · Fri, Apr 05 2013 03:35:39

The nuisance caused by pests like raccoons, squirrels, bats, rats, snakes, opossums and armadillos in cities has paved the way for a new industry known as nuisance wildlife removal. If your house is a dwelling place of squirrels or if your attic is filled with raccoons or if your dream lawn is being chewed out lavishly by armadillos, then it is high time you call professionals who are well equipped to remove these pests off your homes and premises.

 

Professional wildlife removal industry has been a big help to the people of city who find removal of pests a pretty tough job. Raccoons in the urban areas can be found in most of the attics and chimneys. To remove a raccoon should never be attempted by anyone except a trained person. 

 

Squirrels in attic can also become a nuisance to the house owners. The danger which squirrels can cause is that they knew wires which may lead to fire hazards. To avoid such dangers beforehand, it would be wise enough to contact a professional wildlife removal service at the earliest.

 

How to Avoid Risks

 

To make sure that you protect your home from pests which can cause destruction to your house and its surroundings, the best way is to consult experts. For an ordinary person, the factors of risk regarding such pests will be less. But by hiring a professional team, risks can be decreased due to their timely interference.

 

Even during the first stage, that is whenever you find that your attic is occupied by a pest like a raccoon, squirrel or bats, immediately contact a wildlife removal service. A thorough inspection by the professional team can help you avoid risks which can arise as a result of the damage caused by these wild pests. They will also take necessary steps to remove these pests out of your house immediately.

 

These professionals can also help you to avoid pests in future with their valuable tips. They will also help you react the right way while facing a raccoon or any of these pests. Your behavior and reaction can cause aggressiveness in the pest.

 

If your house is under the attack of these pests, then make sure you remove them before cold weathers. Simple cleanliness habits like putting wastes in closed bins can to an extent not attract pests to your dwelling places.

CONTRIBUTION: Australia: The New Lebanese Hotspot?

0

This is an interesting thought, as it gives young Lebanese Australians a chance to establish and maintain a connection with their cultural background, and also provides an opportunity for the Lebanese Diaspora all over the world to connect, creating a global community.

Storified by Nadine Mazloum · Fri, Apr 05 2013 03:35:43

Over the past couple years, several events and establishments have shaped
the Lebanese Diaspora in Australia. In 2012, the first Lebanese Film
Festival was established in Sydney portraying the Lebanese culture through
films directed by Lebanese filmmakers all over the world. Camille Lattouf,
Director of the Lebanese Film Festival, Sydney (LFF), was interviewed on the
LBCI, where he spoke about the  Lebanese Diaspora in Australia and the
portrayal of Lebanese Culture through the medium of film. Also in 2012,
Jessica Kahawaty, a young Lebanese beauty was crowned Miss World Australia.
She has since become known in Lebanon, as a prominent figure from the
Australian Lebanese community.
Former Miss Lebanon Australia Daniella Rahme is now the host of her own TV Show on the MTV, speaking both Arabic, in addition to the her Australian English.
Daniella Rahme - Showreel · daniellarahme

These are just a few examples of the vibrant Lebanese community, and could
be taken as an indication, that Lebanese Australians are striving to
contribute and connect with the worldwide Lebanese Diaspora and reach out to
their homeland. 


However, it is not only Lebanese Australians who have their eyes set on Lebanon, as it seems to be working both ways. Over the past few years, several well-known Lebanese singers have filmed their music videos, in Australia, Darine Hadchiti being one of them.


Darine Hadchiti - Moshtaka / دارين حدشيتى - مشتاقة · melodytvgroup

Australian Lebanese director Jad Haber assisted Darine with her venture, leading his works to being viewed on the most popular Arabic Channels in the Middle East.

The Lebanese Australian community is becoming more vibrant and the success
of several individuals is gaining media attention in the Middle East.

However, if the media were to focus a little bit more on the various talents
within the community, and provide opportunities for contribution, especially
Arabic Media outlets in Australia, more individuals may be encouraged to
actively contribute and also strive to be a part of this connection.

Somdev once again holds his serve very quickly and takes a 4-2 lead. Somdev is really getting his serve to kick up and Wisnu has no answers to it.

Somdev holds and leads 3-1. Somdev is looking untouchable on his serve. But Wisnu follows with a quick service game, but Somdev leads 3-2 in second set. 

Wisnu holds for first time in second set and Somdev leads 2-1. 

A strong service game and Somdev wins to lead 2-0. Somdev is really serving hard and Wisnu finding it tough to return those booming first serves.

Somdev breaks Wisnu and take 1-0 lead. Somdev is running hard and Wisnu has no answer for some brilliant down the line shots.  

India lead 6-1

Somdev quickly wraps up first set 6-1 in just over 30 minutes.
Somdev breaks once again for a 5-1 lead after Wisnu saves one breakpoint. It is really hot and humid in Bangalore and Wisnu is struggling and comes up with a few tired shots. 
Somdev holds and leads 4-1. The Indian is really moving well around the court and his serve proving to be too hot for much lower ranked Wisnu.
Somdev earns his first break of the match with a brilliant drop shot and leads 3-1 in first set. 
Somdev has made his intentions clear and is going for winners from the baseline and holds his serve and leads 2-1.     
Wisnu too holds serve as Somdev is taking some time to get his touch. Score 1-1.
Somdev starts with a bang and ace.... and holds the serve with ease. Meanwhile, Bangalore boy Rohan Bopanna is in the stands and it must be really painful to be sitting out and watching as he and Mahesh Bhupathi are banned by the AITA.
Somdev and Wisnu have taken to the courts and are warming up. Is it going to be Somdev all the way or does Wisnu has some other ideas? Let's see. Remember Somdev is ranked 208, while Wisnu is 1774 in the world.

Both the teams have been welcomed and introduced on the court. During the introduction, Leander Paes gets the highest cheer from the handful of the crowd. Remember Paes is playing his 50th Davis Cup tie. 


Welcome to the live blog of the Davis Cup encounter between India and Indonesia from the KSLTA Stadium in Bangalore.
The first singles match between Somdev Devvarmana and Wisnu Adi Nugroho is scheduled to start at 3 pm (IST) and will be followed by the second singles between Yuki Bhambri and Christopher Rungkat, which is expected to be an exciting affair.

"US plays down North Korea threat"

Pyongyang threatens to attack the US and South Korea. 
In March, North Korea was sanctioned by the United Nations for doing a third nuclear test, since then, it has "issued a series of unusually strong threats". North Korean leadership and influences are not well understood by the other countries. 
The US would not be surprised if North Korea attacked them, however many do not share this opinion since some of the recent threats have appeared to fit a familiar pattern. 
North Korea has moved ranges of missiles towards the east cost which could reach the Pacific island of Guam (where there is a US military base). 


"Portugal's unemployed heading to Mozambique 'Paradise'" 

1975 : Mozambique's independence from Portugal. 
With the financial crisis in Portugal, many are those who move to Mozambique in view of a better life. The poor African country is changing while Portugal is having a hard time (jobless rate at 17%). 

"A tsunami hit Portugal and now everyone is coming here" Mr Dias
"Why evacuate for an earthquake no-one can feel ?" 

L'Aquila's deadly earthquake in 2009 (300 dead): scientist were convicted "of manslaughter for failing to communicate the danger"
Scared of missing a new earthquake alert, people created smartphone apps on which they are aware of every tremor (even those human can't feel). By creating these apps and multiplying the alerts, the people in charge of security hope to protect themselves from any eventual criticisms of  "un-protection", however, this is making everyone very obsessed.

El director Bigas Luna ha fallecido a los 67 años en la localidad de La Riera de Gaià (Tarragona). Las redes sociales sirven, una vez más, de plataforma de recuerdo y homenaje al director de ‘La teta y la luna’, ‘Jamón Jamón’, ‘Bilbao’, ‘Caniche’, ‘Lola’ y 'Las Edades de Lulú', entre otros filmes.

Bekalan makanan untuk penyokong BN mungkin tidak mencukupi


Menurut laporan wartawan Astro AWANI T.K. Letchumy Tamboo, bekalan makanan dan minuman yang disediakan untuk penyokong Barisan Nasional (BN) yang hadir ke Stadium Putra di Bukit Jalil untuk mendengar ucapan manifesto Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, mungkin tidak mencukupi.

Menurut Nur Fakhri Hamzah Kamal dari ibu pejabat Umno, mereka telah menyediakan bekalan untuk menampung 60,000 orang tetapi penyokong BN yang hadir mungkin lebih daripada itu.

"Kami telah menyediakan sebanyak 1,000 kotak air mineral dan setakat pukul 4 petang, hampir 60 peratus daripada bekalan kami sudah diedarkan.

"Sebanyak 100,000 'Goody Bag' juga telah habis diedarkan. Sambutan ini luar daripada jangkaan kami," katanya kepada Astro Awani.
