Ways to Protect Your Family Outdo
(Family Features) Before your family begins enjoying the great outdoors during this adventure-filled season, make sure your yard is properly treated to avoid the dangers of poison ivy, oak or sumac. Learn the proper steps to keep the threat of poisonous plants away from your family
and property. Ashton Ritchie, Lawn & Garden Expert and Author offers this expert advice for protecting your family: Locating the danger Keeping your family safe begins with proper identification of these harmful, rash-producing plants. In the right en-
vironment, poisonous weeds can grow and spread quickly. Using a photo or resource like StopPoisonIvy.com can help identify the various poison weeds and their stages (Poison Ivy often emerges red and only starts to turn green in late spring). Survey your yard once a month, keeping a close eye on these common areas: * Ground Cover: A common area for poison ivy is along the edge of a wooded area or around
(Family Features) Engaging in outdoor activities are a great way for families to stay active and spend quality time together, but between treeclimbing, nature hikes, and backyard barbecues, outdoor adventures can lead to piles of dirty, dingy and stained clothing. Unwanted stains from dripping ice cream cones to grass and dirt can easily find themselves on unsuspecting clothing, and especially stand out on white and light-colored apparel. Stain Fighting Tips Maintaining bright, spot-
less clothing doesn’t have to be complicated. Get your family’s wardrobe into shape with these stain fighting tips: * Act quickly when stains occur: If possible, begin treating the stain immediately. For stains on the go, try applying club soda with a clean white cloth napkin. If none is available, just try and keep the spot wet with an ice cube until you can get home and wash. * Don’t let laundry sit in the hamper: As a general rule of thumb, the longer the stain sits, the harder it will be to remove. Ensure stained clothing makes its way to the laundry
room, rather than sitting in your child’s bedroom or hamper for several days. * Soak clothes for best results: Remove tough stains with little effort by pre-soaking colorfast clothing overnight in a solution of OxiClean(tm) White Revive(tm) Laundry Stain Remover and warm to hot water. The color-safe solution cleans fibers and helps maintain and revive dingy whites without chlorine, harsh smells, yellowing or color damage. * Add a scoop to the wash cycle: For stain fighting action, add a scoop of OxiClean(tm)

Varis weeds flourish under such nditions. * Stumps: Dead stumps are o a common hangout for se harmful weeds. Eliminate the threat Once you have determined ere the poison ivy is locat-
ed, you can work to remove it from your surroundings. Look for a weed-eliminating product that works double-duty, such as Roundup(r) Poison Ivy Plus Tough Brush Killer, which penetrates the waxy surface of poison ivy, oak, sumac, kudzu and other tough weeds, while also killing at the roots. * Wear protection Before contact with these poisonous plants, always wear the proper clothing and protection. Be sure to cover your hands with thick, long gloves and wear a long sleeved shirt and pants in case you accidently touch the plants. * Choose the right time Always choose a calm, wind-free day for applying
products to avoid contact with other desirable plants in your yard. If you can, it is best to apply with a temperature above 60 degrees F. * Apply a weed-killing solution Spray a specialized weed killer, such as Roundup(r) Poison Ivy Plus Tough Brush Killer on the leaves until saturated, taking care not to apply to nearby trees, grasses and desirable plants. You should always read and follow label directions. * Wait for the plant to completely die Perennial weeds such as poison ivy may take 4 or more weeks for a complete kill, so be patient and follow the direc-
tions on the specialized weed killer packaging. * Regularly monitor surroundings Keep new weeds from growing by surveying your outdoor areas at least once a month throughout the busy weed-growing months of May through November. With proper application and monitoring, your family can enjoy all the outdoor fun without the worry. For more tips and tricks, visit www. StopPoisonIvy.com.
