Bike Rally returns June 14

Springtown, Texas 76082

Parker County Puppies

Hundreds expected to ride By Natalie Gentry The 5th Annual All-American Bicycle Rally is set for Saturday, June 14. Chamber board member Dr. Robert Moss noted that although only 57 cyclists have per-registered this number is about the same as last year. Last year approximately 200 riders participated in the rally. Moss also commented on the volunteers who have stepped up to help.

“Volunteers from all of the local churches will man the rest stops and we have some volunteers from area volunteer fire stations who will be posted along the routes.” Moss said. With loops encompassing 10, 28, 54, and 67 miles to choose from, every cyclist will find a course for their level, he said. Registration begins at 6:30 a.m. Saturday morning in the Springtown High School parking lot. The first race starts at 7:30 a.m. and

all courses will close at 2 p.m. All riders will again receive barbecue from Woody Creek after the race. Perspective riders can register at www.bikereg.com or download the application from the Chamber’s website and fax (with credit or debit card information) to the Chamber office at 817-523-3268. For more information contact the Springtown Chamber at info@ springtownchamber.org or by phone at 817-220-7828.

Even though two of the “Parker County Puppies” have died from complications stemming from exposure, the eight remaining puppies are thriving in the care of their surrogate mothers. Angels and Outlaws Second Chance Bully Ranch, a dog rescue facility in Hico that is caring for the puppies, has posted a June 13 deadline to apply to adopt one of the puppies. All applicants will be screened by the rescue. So far, rescue owner Jennifer Aikman has received approximately 75 applications from as far away as Canada. People interested in adopting one of the pups should e-mail Aikman at angelsandoutlawsbullyranch@gmail.com.

Giant track meet returning Around 4,500 expected to pour into town June 19-21 by mark k. campbell They’re coming back – and even more are returning. The Southwestern Association Junior Olympic Track & Field Championships liked its Springtown experience last year so much that the organization is headed back to the Porcupine Stadium complex June 19-21. In 2013, approximately 3,000 young athletes and their families came to town. That number is expected to swell this year, said facility director Carl Hornback. Visitors en route Because the national meet will also take place in Texas this year – in Humble – Hornback thinks the incentive of regional track athletes not having to travel out of state for the ultimate meet will entice more to compete in Springtown.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if we had more people this year than last year,” he said. “We had about 1,500 athletes last year. It could be 2,000 this year.” That could propel the final tally to 4,500. But they won’t all arrive at the same time. “It’ll be spread out throughout the week,” he said. “After they compete, they’ll leave and others will arrive.” With the competitions being Texas-intensive, Hornback said he is aware of 25 more track clubs popping up in the North Texas area as well as talented squads coming to Springtown from Hallsville and Texarkana. Competitors know that success in Springtown will send athletes to the regional event in San Marcos then nationals in Humble, near Houston. “I think the fact that kids can compete in all the meets and stay in Texas will create more interest,” Horn-

back said. “It’s a rare opportunity to not leave the state.” The meet With Springtown’s top-notch facilities, the Southwestern Association Junior Olympics was happy to come back, Hornback said. He and six others will be responsible for timing and results. That means preparing for the onslaught of athletes by erecting timing devices and cameras around the track well in advance of any arrivals. Hornback said he and his cohorts plan on doing that the Monday before the meet, June 16. “It takes a while,” he noted. Aside from the facility rental fee, Springtown benefits trackside by keeping all the concessions; funds go to the athletic booster club, Hornback said. PLEASE SEE HUGE, PAGE 2A.

by carla noah stutsman Two men were hurt when a small plane crashed near the intersection of Confederate Park Road (aka FM 1886) and Silver Creek-Azle Road near Lakeside June 4. The accident occurred around 6:15 p.m. Sources tell the Epigraph both men will recover from their injuries. Although the identities of the two men on board could not be confirmed, a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) preliminary incident report indicates the aircraft was registered to Robert E. Carter of Springtown on March 7. According to the same report, the blue bi-plane is a Starduster TOO SA300 built in 1975; its classification is listed as “Experimental” and its category is “Amateur Built.” One of the two men on board, believed to be the pilot, was transported to a Fort Worth hospital by CareFlite air ambulance. His injuries were deemed to be serious. The other man, believed to be a passenger in the aircraft, was taken to Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth by ground ambulance. The report does not list a cause for the crash. It only says the craft crashed “under unknown circumstances in a residential area near Flying Oaks Airstrip.” In fact, the plane’s wreckage appeared to be in the driveway of a residence located immediately east of that popular airstrip.

Who Should Take a Daily Aspirin? Heart attacks and strokes are leading causes of death in the United States for both men and women. Preventable risk factors include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, and smoking. People can lower their risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke by treating their medical conditions, eating healthier, quitting smoking and being physically active. Some people can reduce their risk by taking a daily aspirin. Aspirin works to protect the heart by preventing blood clots. Clots can block blood flow in the heart and brain. Clots in the heart and brain can cause heart attacks and strokes, respectively. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends a daily aspirin to prevent heart attacks and stroke when the benefit outweighs the risk. However, aspirin is not safe for everyone. It can cause stomach irritation and bleeding. Low dose (81 mg) aspirin has the smallest risk of causing bleeding. It is the recommended dose for most people who should take aspirin daily. The USPSTF recommends aspirin for men age 45-79 to help reduce heart attack risk. They recommend aspirin for women age 55-79 to help reduce stroke risk. Aspirin is not recommended for men less than age 45 or women less than age 55. It is important to talk to your doctor before starting a daily aspirin.

Springtown’s Marsh graduates Naval Academy with honors U.S. Navy Ensign, Montana D. Marsh, son of Dr. Michael and Mrs. Paula Marsh and a 2010 graduate of Springtown High School, graduated from the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland May 23 and was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Navy. Marsh successfully completed four years of intensive academic, physical, and professional training, resulting in a Bachelor of Science Degree with Honors and a major in English. The mission of the United States Naval Academy is to develop midshipmen morally, mentally, and physically for the privilege of serving as leaders of sailors and Marines who have volunteered to serve America.

Library Summer Programs

Following graduation, Marsh has been assigned to Flight School in Pensacola, Florida where he will continue studies in Naval Aviation. Considered one of the top educational institutions in the country, the U.S. Naval Academy was founded in 1845 and has graduated more than 77,000 men and women as Naval and Marine Corps Officers. Its graduates include one president, 22 members of Congress, three governors, 27 Chiefs of Naval Operations, nine Commandants of the Marine Corps, 73 Medal of Honor recipients, two Nobel Prize winners, and 52 astronauts. The Brigade of Midshipmen is comprised of more than 4,000 students from every state in the union.

Tabernacle Support Chasidy Davis (right), owner of the Texas Bistro and Cafe, presented a check to Springtown City Administrator Mark Krey (center right), Springtown Council member and Tabernacle Restoration Committee member Robert Wilson, and his wife Jimmie Wilson. The check was for 10 percent of the restaurant’s Tuesday sales for the month of May. B&B Burgers has stepped up to the plate as June restaurant sponsoring Tabernacle Tuesdays.

SPORTS

Two more camps loom

7-on-7 Football

Boys basketball and softball are next for Springtown sports campers. For kids attending non-elite sports camps, each child after the first one registered can attend at half price. On June 16-19, boys’ basketball and softball camps are slated. The hoops camp is for grades K-8 and runs from 1-3 p.m. at the SHS gym. The Lady Porcupine soft-

ball diamond is the site of that camp. The cost is $60 for grade 3-9; it runs from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. After these two camps, two remain but don’t arrive until late July. A football camp for grades 7-9 will be conducted in the Multi-Purpose Facility July 2831. The evening camp – 7-8:30 p.m. – costs $45. An elite volleyball camp, set for the SHS gym from 2-7 p.m.

July 31-August 2, is a “rigorous, high-intensity” camp for incoming 9-12 grades. The deadline for regular registration is July 21. There’s a $10 late fee after that. For more information, call Hollie Huston at 512-4954994 or email hhuston@emsisd.net. More information on summer sports camps is available at 817-220-3040, the SISD athletic office.

Celina next tourney stop The Porcupine 7-on-7 football team played its first state qualifier in Glen Rose June 7. Springtown defeated Whitney 42-14; the Wildcats went on to qualify for the big tourney. But the Porcupines tumbled to Eastland and Tolar.

Coach Stryker Strickland said Eastland was especially fired up to face SHS; the Mavericks were the former school that new Springtown coach Brian Hulett hails from. Strickland added that the Porcupines played its trio of games

consecutively “which made us a little fatigued.” A top two finish is necessary to play at the state tourney in College Station. Last year, the Porcupines reached the Sweet 16. Next up is another qualifying tournament, at Celina, June 14.

No. 1 with a Kleenex: I’ve got the mucus in me without a restroom break. That became a 50-mile horror trip. While I temporarily got my mind off my woes as I passed the helium plant out there – what does happen ON YOUR when you wee in a helium MARK plant? – I soon Mark K. Campbell was having an I-35 flashback. And this time I was the adult! (So the first convenience store on the outskirts of Amarillo got a rapid visit from a wide-eyed gentleman with flip flops on the wrong feet who uttered a silent prayer of thanks that no one was using the facility when he bolted back there.) Anyway, many of us this time of

year come upon another instance when something must be remedied at this very moment, NOW! – we sinus sufferers. I can’t prove this but I believe in my almost 58 years that I have blown my nose more than any human on the planet. (My dad always had a handkerchief on him – if we were swimming, in his cut-off jeans, there’d be a drenched hankie hanging out of a pocket– but I can’t imagine ever using one because of the frequency of its use. Yuck!) What a mountain of Kleenex I have left behind; I’m not very green when it comes to my snout (well, on the outside of it, anyway). I awoke the other morning to the usual series of sneezes that evolved into a required nose blow. But the tissues were all gone. And the paper towel dealie was empty. There was toilet paper, of course, but that was way in the back room and I didn’t want to wake up the Bride. (I race to the sun room on the other end of the house

This is one of those columns that the Bride thinks is inappropriate and unnecessary and embarrassing. She’s likely right, so I’ll apologize in advance. he predicament was whether to blow my nose on this. There are times in our lives that are incredibly urgent, when something has to be done RIGHT NOW or else. Then when resolved, we’ve forgotten all about it. Like: when you really, really need a drink of water; earaches or toothaches; or when you absolutely MUST go to the bathroom immediately. (It likely means something, a psychologist would say, that my two earliest memories are about that latter instance. In the first, I was a boy – 8 – driving home up I-35 with my family from Lake Whitney back to Fort Worth. Lounging around the back of our station wagon, the eight Shasta

colas I had consumed earlier on the shore began to require an exit. But there was no way dad was going to stop. You were asked if you had to go to the bathroom before you left then it was a straight shot home. Miles later, however I situated myself, there was no relief. So, I told dad. (I knew a gas station or rest area was out of the question. Dad finally relented and just drove off onto the shoulder of the Interstate. I got out – protected by open doors – and sought solace. But, with 18-wheelers roaring by and knowing there was an impatient dad drumming his fingers on an unair-conditioned Plymouth steering wheel, I, uh, faltered. Unfulfilled, I climbed back into the back of the car and, somehow, managed to get back home. (The second instance – I’m sure you are all riveted by these tales – came when driving back from Colorado. A wise adult now, I thought I could make it from Dumas to Amarillo

when sneezes are imminent; some accuse me of having a sneeze that’s a tad loud. [It is kinda funny in Target to watch people scream or drop things when I sneeze nearby them.]) By now, the nose situation was crucial. I had to blow NOW. And there, in the cupboard, was a possible answer: a napkin. However, I paused. It was a Chinet napkin. Man, those are for when company comes over. These are the really nice napkins; they’re borderline cloth. I paused, holding the thick, luxurious paper wonder that could solve my problem. Soon, nature made the decision. It was blow now or things were going to get really messy. So I blew...heaven! I don’t know if Chinet needs further rave reviews, but they can get one from me: “Better than a handkerchief!” Mark K. Campbell is the Epigraph editor and, while he waffled on publishing this, the title won him over (sorry Kiki Dee); also, this column set the new On Your Mark record for parenthetical length and that’s saying something.

Dressing for success

Boat recoveries are on the rise

The team has assisted other agencies with more than 390 cases. Many of the recovered boats were found in the first week after they were reported stolen. Before, many cases had gone years without success, noted Greg Williford, special operations captain. For information on stolen boats or registration fraud, contact 1-800-7924263.

Anthony Bledsoe – Part 5: Death mourned by many Colonel Putnam, in his History of Middle Tennessee, in speaking of the death of Colonel Bledsoe, says “The heart of Colonel Robertson had been pierced, again and again. This death was an almost crushing blow to him. “With the Bledsoes he had long been intimate; they had taken counsel together; they had toiled and traveled together; they were steadfast friends, and by their offices as Representatives to the Legislature (of North Carolina), and in the recent measure to discover, and if possible, abate or remove the cause of enmity on the part of the Creeks, they fervently hoped to render lasting service. “But now this earliest of pioneers, this upright man reliable friend and

EPA air pollution plan sparks varied reactions

he Obama administration on June 2 publicized what it termed “the firstever plan to reduce carbon pollution from power plants.” The plan, a set of proposed actions to be administered by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, states that, “cutting carbon emissions will help prevent up to 6,500 premature deaths and 150,000 asthma attacks among children.” In a news release of his own, Gov. Rick Perry reacted, saying, “President Obama’s decision to impose drastic new restrictions on America’s energy industry is the most direct assault yet on the energy providers that employ thousands of Americans and fuel both our homes and our nation's economic growth.” The Obama administration further stated the plan would “reduce electricity bills by approximately 8 percent by increasing energy efficiency and reducing demand in the electricity system, while creating

tens of thousands of jobs across the country.” But Perry said the air Texans breathe today “is cleaner than it was in 2000, even as our population has grown by nearly 5.2 million people” and “statewide, from 2000 to 2012, nitrogen oxide levels from industrial sources were reduced by 62.5 percent and from 2000 to 2012 ozone levels were reduced by 23 percent, a 12 percent greater reduction than the national average.” However, the Obama administration pointed out that governors would have “flexibility to meet the proposed standards using the energy sources that work best for each state” and, “there’s no one-size-fits-all approach here.” Along with its plan to reduce carbon pollution from power plants, the White House posted a fact sheet for Texas and one for each of the other states. The Texas fact sheet includes details under such headings as: A Cleaner More Efficient Power Sector in Texas, Improving the Health of Texas Residents, and

Cutting Carbon Pollution in Texas. State S e n . Rodney Ellis, DHouston, praised t h e Obama STATE administration’s CAPITAL HIGHLIGHTS proposed E P A Ed Sterling r u l e s , saying, “There is an urgent need to act, and the President has answered the country’s call. My preference is that Congress would act, but we all know that’s not going to happen.” “Climate change is already here: the country's 12 hottest years on record have come in the last 15 years and Texas is in the midst of one of the worst droughts in recorded history,” Ellis continued. “If we want to leave our children and grandchildren a safe and healthy en-

vironment, we’ve got to limit carbon emissions — just like we’ve done with arsenic, mercury, and other pollutants,” Ellis added.

GlaxoSmithKline LLC. The agreement resolves a multistate investigation against the company for unlawfully promoting its asthma drug Advair and its antidepressant drugs Paxil and Wellbutrin. Under the settlement agreement, GlaxoSmithKline must pay the State of Texas a total of $6.2 million, Abbott said, pointing out that the drug maker violated state consumer protection law by misrepresenting the uses and qualities of the three named drugs. State and federal law generally prohibits pharmaceutical manufacturers from marketing their drugs for “off-label” uses that have not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Abbott said.

Republicans hold convention An estimated 7,000 people reportedly attended the 2014 state convention of the Republican Party of Texas, June 5-7, in Fort Worth. GOP candidates who won March primaries or primary runoffs on May 27 were confirmed as nominees. Delegates participated in a straw poll for the presidency in 2016: U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz drew 43 percent of the vote to Gov. Perry’s 11.7 percent. Among various topics drawing media attention were debates over immigration policy, optional “gay conversion therapy” counseling for homosexuals and Second Comptroller honors lawmaker State Comptroller Susan Amendment rights.

The Legislature passed agreement with drug maker

Cook’s House Bill 11 in 2007 and HB 11 in 2011, identically numbered bills requiring electronic reporting for all wholesale alcohol and tobacco sales. Those bills “made it easier for the comptroller to identify and investigate retailers who either under-collected sales tax or collected sales taxes but failed to remit the proceeds to the state,” Combs said, adding that the bills “have helped the state gain more than $523 million in tax revenue.” DPS joins inspection effort Texas Department of Public Safety last week announced that state troopers, inspectors, and investigators participated in intensified commercial vehicle inspections from June 3 to June 5 as part of Roadcheck 2014, a nationwide enforcement effort to increase motor carrier, vehicle, driver and cargo safety and security.

Zebra mussel rules expand statewide July 1

heir invasion is now considered of utmost importance. Through recent years, regulations have been instituted on Texas bodies of water to thwart an insistent invasive species, zebra mussel. Now, those rules affect the entire state. When the mussels were discovered in Lake Belton, the die was cast for expansions into the Hill Country Highland Lakes chain, including Lake Travis. The invasive mussels came from Eurasia and were first found in Lone Star waters in 2009 in Lake Texoma. The rapidly reproducing species can clog public-water intake pipes, harm boats, and have an economic impact on all reservoirs.

Unopened state park growing

or a park that isn’t close to opening, Palo Pinto Mountains State Park keeps getting bigger. Recently, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department accepted 120 surrounding acres of land near property TPWD already owned. The Strawn land encompasses property around city-owned Tucker Lake which falls within the boundary’s of the original Palo Pinto Mountains SP 4,000 acres.

SPRINGTOWN FAMILY HEALTH CENTER “You will be a patient, not a number”

The lake itself is not included – it provides drinking water to Strawn – and the town will retain all water rights and control of the dam and spillway. Planning for Palo Pinto Mountains SP began back in 2011 when funds were received after TPWD sold an undeveloped 400-acre plot of land that was a proposed and never realized Eagle Mountain Lake SP. A public use plan for Palo Pinto Mountains SP is underway. The park will not open for “at least several years,” a TPWD report noted.

The small mussels can cover boat hulls, block water-cooling systems, and overwhelm anything underwater, their sharp edges hazardous. As of July 1, anyone taking a boat out of Texas waters must drain all water from vessels and on-board receptacles. That includes: • boats – powered or not • personal watercraft • sailboats • kayaks • canoes • live wells • motors “All you have to do is clean, drain, and dry your boat,” said Brian Van Zee, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department’s Inland Fisheries Division regional director. “This is critical because in their initial state, zebra mussels are invisible to the naked eye.”

What doesn’t work It’s hard to tell if Edge of Tomorrow is pilfering from other movies or just borrowing. There’s a lot of The Matrix here and the creatures are Alienesque. Then there’s the plot that mimics (yeah, the Movie Man said it) Groundhog Day and the lesser-known Time Code. The fi rst 70 minutes or so of Edge of Tomorrow are so good that a letdown is inevitable. The manner in which Cruise/ Blunt’s team manages to fi nd and access the ultimate alien brain is stretching it. But that’s the beauty of sci-fi. Still, the Movie Man wasn’t crazy about the ending.

Next up The Movie Man is certainly headed for How to Train Your Dragon 2. The week should be a colossal one at the box offi ce. Now that the hipsters have seen Neighbors (MM #1087, 3), they will venture over to 22 Jump Street, another self-aware bromance which, the Movie Man admits, looks better than Neighbors (yes, that’s very faint praise).

Suspect sought in 10K electric scam by carla noah stutsman Public outcry over news of an 89-year-old Azle area woman being scammed out of almost $10,000 has been deafening. The story, posted to the Azle News Facebook page, had been shared more than 220 times at press time Tuesday. Danie Huffman, Public Information Officer for the Parker County Sheriff’s Office, said Monday her department has received a large number of comments and responses as a result of a press release posted to the Sheriff’s website and Facebook page, as well. Now, the Parker County Sheriff’s Criminal Investigation Division is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying and locating a pair of suspects in connection with its investigation into the crime. Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler said the main suspect identified himself to the victim as Gregory Long, and investigators believe Long could be using his real identity. Long posed as a worker from the victim’s electric company, stating he received a “sensor,” that there was a “short” in her wiring. After he entered her attic, Long told the victim squirrels had chewed through her wiring,

and it would costs $9,818.40, to repair the damage. Long was accompanied by an unidentified 20-year-old male who posed as his assistant. The suspects did not leave or display a work order, agreement or any form of paper work. A neighbor of the victim reported seeing the same suspects at her residence prior to arriving at the victim’s home. The neighbor said the suspects told her they were representatives from her electric company, performing work in the area and that her electric may be shut off briefly while they performed their work. The suspects stayed at the victim’s residence for about 45 minutes, according to Fowler. The victim wrote Long a check but contacted her electric company after Long left the residence. The electric company confirmed there was no such “sensor” or “short” and said they did not send a representative to her home. The victim then contacted the Sheriff’s Office to report the incident. Sheriff’s deputies arrived on scene but were unable to locate any new work or wiring done on the victim’s residence. The victim contacted her bank in order to cancel the check, but Long had already cashed it.

Investigators discovered that Long used a Missouri driver’s license as identification to cash the check at the bank. They also learned Long is a suspect in other similar investigations. He is currently believed to be the suspect of a similar Callahan County Sheriff’s Office fraud case. Long also goes by the names of Danny and Jackson, but may use other aliases. He is described as being in his 40s, 6-feet tall, weighing about 180 pounds with dark blond or possibly strawberry hair. The suspects were reported to have been driving a white, 4-wheel-drive pickup with chrome equipment. Fowler believes the men have conducted similar schemes in the Metroplex. “I don’t know what goes through a criminal’s mind as they con unsuspecting people out of thousands of dollars,” Sheriff Fowler said. “We believe someone out there knows who these suspects are and where they are located.” Fowler cautioned the public against conducting any sort of business with people who approach them or are unsolicited, without proper identification and paperwork. “Before any work is done in or

Anyone with information of the identification or location of the suspects is urged to contact the Sheriff’s Office immediately at (817) 594-8845. Or call Parker County Crime Stoppers Hotline at (817) 5995555 where you can remain anonymous. Crime Stoppers will pay up to a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest or indictment of the suspects involved.

Watch out for warranty deception when buying a used car Tarrant County is assisting the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) to stop title fraud in Texas, and county residents can help by learning how to protect themselves before

they buy a used vehicle. “Everyone who applies for a title in our office will have the vehicle information run through the National Motor Vehicle Title Information Sys-

tem,” said Ron Wright, Tarrant County tax assessor-collector. This system is similar to how law enforcement agencies consolidated their information into the national crime data-

base. The title database contains title records from DMVs across the nation, and the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) is using it to thwart would-be title washers from

getting clean titles on vehicles that should be branded salvage, rebuilt, or flooded. “People who used to find ways to scam the system by putting a clean Texas title on flooded, re-

built and salvage vehicles may be surprised to find that’s not going to be so easy in the Lone Star State anymore,” Wright said. PLEASE SEE usED, PAGE 3B.

Tarrant County Jury Services say they never contact anyone by phone to pay a fi ne for failing to appear for jury service. Typically, they will send a failure to appear notice before taking any action. If a warrant is issued for your arrest, there is no warning phone call. The courts do not allow citizens to pay a fi ne in lieu of jury service. A fi ne can be assessed, and in some cases jail time. Either way, the jury service will be rescheduled to a later date.

You can go to Title Check for vehicles you might see on Internet auction sites or in classified ads.” A title history report shows where and what states the vehicle was titled in, previous odometer readings and whether it has a brand that could impact the vehicle’s safety and/ or value, such as salvage, junk, rebuilt, or flooded. TxDMV Executive Director Whitney Brewster noted licensed businesses that specialize in selling salvage and rebuilt vehicles tell consumers the condition of the vehicle up front. Title fraud happens when a dishonest seller preys on innocent buyers, convincing them to buy vehicles without disclosing the title issues. “Don’t let it happen to you or any of your family or friends,” Wright said, “especially not when a click of the mouse can take you to Title Check on the TxDMV website. If you don’t remember anything else when buying a used vehicle, please remember this: Don’t Buy a Wreck. Do a Title Check.”

For All Your Storm Related Needs! Non-pesticide termite treatment now available in Texas

Developed over years of Texas A&M testing, Polyguard Products, of Ennis, Texas introduces TERM Particle Barrier, the first and only Texas termite treatment not classified as a pesticide. EPA classifies the TERM Particle Barrier as a “device”. The concept is simple - quartz particles are carefully sorted and sized to an exact combination. Particles are too large for termites to move, and too small for them to crawl between. The particle barrier simply blocks entry, causing termites to forage elsewhere for food. TERM Particle Barrier can be installed by Polyguard authorized pest management professionals on the outside perimeter of existing or new homes and schools, as well as in bath traps and wherever plumbing penetrations come through the slab. No building should be built without this particle barrier, as it blocks most places where termites enter structures. TERM Particle Barrier should dramatically reduce the need for pesticides. EPA Establishment # 89537-TX-1 For more information, visit: www.ParticleBarrier.com Call Don Stetler (281.217.2965) or Polyguard (214.515.5000)
