Can Ladybirds Bite?
Ladybirds are unlikely to bite you, although they can give you a gentle pinch if they accidentally mistake you for a greenfly.

Do ladybugs bite or sting?
Lady bugs have biting mouthparts, but will not attack you. You really have to be torturing a ladybug for it to bite. Its first line of defense will actually be to bleed on you (their hemolymph is yellow, so if it looks like the ladybug urinated in your hand, that's its blood).

For spot cleaning, Iâve just been using Seventh Generation all-purpose cleaner. Itâs gotten red tea, blueberries, and a number of other EEK stains out of the carpetâ¦if I get to them right away. I can still see an unusually clean spot across the room where my daughter spilled red tea last weekendâ¦.


Homemade Natural Carpet Cleaner for Steam Vacuums
My in-laws own a steam vacuum and offered the cleaner that came with it, but with a soon-to-be crawler who will be ingesting everything on the carpet and my general tendency toward natural green cleaning products, I knew I had to figure out a green alternative homemade carpet cleaner, and one that I could find fast.


Homemade Natural Carpet Cleaner for Steam Vacuums
âThe difficulty in finding a good home brew carpet cleaner is that many have the affect of setting stains. Many that are âgreenâ also leave residues in the carpet that cause premature re-soiling.â. âWhen fiber artists want to set dyes in fabric they use vinegar. On the right kind of spot vinegar can work fine.


Spring Cleaning and Deodorizing Carpets
Grapefruit - 1 drop. Mix all ingredients and sprinkle on a small carpet. If you have a large room you may need to blend a larger quantity. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes and then vacuum thoroughly. Borax also helps to kill little creepy crawling insects. So working a bit of this down into the carpet fibers is a plus. Remember though if you have pets or small children do not let them be on the carpeting until you have thoroughly vacuum the powders up.


Spring Cleaning and Deodorizing Carpets
Good oils to try include: Lemon, Clary Sage, Geranium, Bergamot, Lavender, Grapefruit and Lime. You can use stronger scents such as Peppermint or Eucalyptus but because they have tendency to linger longer and not smell so refreshing but overpowering. Remember all essential oils have antibacterial, anti fungal, anti microbial and antiseptic properties.


Homemade Natural Carpet Cleaner for Steam Vacuums
One tip that I regularly use on carpet issues, especially tinkle on the carpet, is baking soda. A reader recommended baking soda and an essential oil like lemon mixed in: Just sprinkle on the floor, wait for anything to dry if wet, and vacuum with a regular vacuum.

Natural Carpet Deodorizer Recipe
After you have blended the oils into the baking soda, the deodorizer can be stored in a glass jar or airtight container. Instructions for Use: Sprinkle the deodorizer onto your carpet. Several of AromaWeb's advertisers sell powder sifter containers suitable for body powders and carpet deodorizers. Alternatively, you may use a clean, discarded spice container that has holes that permit you to shake the deodorizer onto your carpet).


Natural Carpet Deodorizer Recipe
Directions: Add the baking soda to a large bowl and then add the essential oils. Be sure to mix the oils into the baking soda well. Since lemon essential oil is normally yellow, it is essential that it is mixed well into the baking soda so that no undiluted lemon oil stains your carpet. This blend may be adapted to use your favorite essential oils.


What is a velociraptor?
The velociraptor* (Velociraptor mongoliensis) was a species of small dinosaur, about ~6 feet (~2 m) long and ~3 feet (~1 m) tall. They lived about 75 million years ago, in t â¦ he late Cretaceous. Velociraptors may have hunted in groups, and were very smart for dinosaurs.


Velociraptor
Velociraptor was roughly the size of a turkey. Also, Jurassic Park Velociraptors didn't have feathers. For some reason, in the Jurassic Park series, Velociraptors lack feathers and are bigger; instead of feathers, they are given squamas on their backs.

2,534 pages on this wiki. The most amazing find in Mongolia may be the discovery of the skeletons of the small theropod Velociraptor (swift seizer) with its right arm clamped firmly in the beak of the small ceratopsian Protoceratops. Both skeletons are complete and picture a Late Cretaceous struggle to the death.


Velociraptor
Velociraptors were meat-eaters, carnivorous. They had approximately 80 very sharp, curved teeth, and a long, flat snout. Some teeth measured over an inch (2.5 cm) long. These carnivores lived during the Cretaceus period, about 85 million years ago.


Velociraptor
The Velociraptor lived in a desert-like environment that had some streams, trees, and shrubs. Velociraptor fossils have been found in what is now known as the Gobi Desert, which covers Southern Mongolia and parts of Northern China. In 1971, a Velociraptor skeleton was found in a death struggle with a Protoceratops. Both skeletons were found intact.


-
Forum: 859. Votes: 42. Mongolia, where Velociraptor lived, is now a complete desert, but back in Velociraptor's day the area was a savannah, which is a grassland with more trees than, say, the Great Plains of the United States.


Velociraptor
Velociraptors were swift and agile hunters with 3 claws on their forelegs and 4 claws on their hind legs. They used their front claws to capture and hold their prey while they ate. Many species of dinosaurs, much larger than the Velociraptor, could easily become prey to a pack of hungry Velociraptors.
