article: There are two types of cat harness: the Figure Eight and the H-harness. The main difference between the two is that the Figure Eight features just two loops that meet on top of the cat's shoulders, while the H-harness has a short strap that lies between the shoulder blades with the loops sewn onto either end. There is no right answer to which type of harness is best. Some owners report the Figure Eight harness is harder to wriggle out of. Indeed, the fit of the Figure Eight harness is much more snug, which could account for why it seems more secure on some cats. Harnesses usually come in different sizes, such as small, medium, or large. These sizes are typically based on the measurement around the chest, usually 12, 14, 16, or 18 inches.  Most harnesses have adjustable loops but they are not designed so that a small harness can fit a big cat. Rather, these are designed for ease of comfort and to get the harness to fit snugly. To find your cat's chest size use a tape measure and place it immediately behind the cat's front legs. Measure around their chest in a full circle, taking care that the tape is not twisted. Apply gentle pressure so the tape fits snugly but is not digging into the cat. Take this measurement and add 2 or 3 inches - this figure now gives you the size of harness you should buy. Cat harnesses are available at most pet stores and they come in a variety of colors and materials. If you have a specific model in mind, however, it may be easiest to buy the harness online. Remember that sizes may vary between brands, so a Large in one brand of harness may not fit the same as a Large in another brand.

article: If stinkbugs have made their way into your home, dispose of them without crushing them. Damage to their bodies will release their terrible odor, which will linger in your home. Be mindful of where you step if you see stink bugs in your home, and dispose of them as gently as possible. The simplest way to get rid of stink bugs is to carefully collect them and eliminate them without crushing them. Use a brush and dustpan to gently sweep up the bugs without harming them. Quickly shake out the bugs into your toilet and flush them immediately to get rid of them. If you have a bagged vacuum cleaner, use it to suck up stink bugs and immediately dispose of the entire bag. If the bugs are harmed by the strong suction of the vacuum they will likely release their strong smell once they are trapped in the bag. Do not use any other type of vacuum, as the smell of the stink bugs may linger. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of hot water into a spray bottle. Add 0.5 cups (120 ml) of white vinegar and 0.25 cups (59 ml) of dish soap, then shake the bottle gently to combine them. Spray the mixture directly onto stink bugs to kill them.

Many other types of fruit trees are best pruned in the winter while they’re dormant, but apricot trees can be especially prone to catching disease. Pruning an apricot plant in the summer enables the tree to heal quickly and seal itself from moisture, which can cause damage and introduce disease.  Trim your tree as soon as possible after harvesting fruit. At this stage, the tree will still be in a growth phase and will be able to heal more quickly.  Pruning in late summer gives your apricot tree more time to grow new branches, which means that your tree will produce more apricots next year. The blades on your shears should be sturdy, not corroded, and able clip through smaller branches. A pruning saw is usually necessary to cut thicker branches. It should have a curved blade and wide teeth. Older tools can often be sharpened at your local hardware store. If you can’t reach the top of your tree, you’ll also need a sturdy ladder. Folding and leaning ladders not safe to use when pruning, as they’re not stable on uneven ground. Instead, use an orchard ladder, which has a more sturdy tripod structure. Soak shears and saws for 30 seconds to make sure they’re clean and won’t transmit any diseases to your tree. If you’re pruning multiple apricot trees, re-soak your tools in between each tree.
