in the home. The centipedes will have nothing to eat, and will hopefully die or move in with the neighbors A centipede without food is as good as a dead or soon-to-be-vacating centipede. Centipedes dry out and die if they don't stay in a moist environment. Clean up basements, closets, or any other damp areas, and use a dehumidifier. Place packets of silica in the dampest places of your home. Silica is an absorbent that wicks away moisture from the air and ground. Look for silica packets in new shoes, for example, or buy some cheaply. Keep them in the dampest places of your home. Place firewood, mulch, tarpaulins, and compost bins away from the perimeter of the house and as far away as possible. Remove any compost, leaves, wood, and organic debris. Consider getting rid of damp items like compost bins if possible. This will keep the bugs from entering your home in the first place.  Seal any cracks in concrete foundations, and caulk spaces around doors and windows.  Apply weatherstripping to the outside of your house to discourage centipede intrusion. Caulk any holes between walls. Look at gutters and downspouts and clear away away leaves, branches, or other material that may be blocking the water's natural flow down the gutter. This could be a potential home for centipedes. For a natural way to discourage centipedes from vacationing in your home, try laying down a thin layer of cayenne pepper at entrance points, both outside and inside your home. Dogs and cats should stay away from it, although they won't be seriously hurt if they happen to get a little curious.

Q: Pull your books off the shelves and out of storage. As you sort through your entire collection, divide the items into three piles: a keep pile, a donate pile, and a sell pile.  Reasons to keep a book:  It is rare or collectable It is by your favorite author It is a book you have not read yet It is a good fit for your personal collection You have space to keep the book   Reasons to donate or sell a book:  It is old or damaged You will not read it again It contains outdated information You do not have room to keep it It is a textbook that you will not use again Bring the books you want to donate to a secondhand store, a local library, a daycare, or a nearby school. Contact your local used bookstore to inquire about the books you want to sell.  Alternatively, you could try to sell the books online. If you donate your books, don’t forget to ask for a receipt to file for a tax deduction. You may also recycle paperback books. Sort the books you want to keep into stacks, piles, or rows that correspond with your organizational method. For example, if you want to alphabetize your books by author’s last name, place all of the “A’s,” “B’s,” “C’s,” etc. into their own pile. If you want to sort the books by genre, create a pile for history, literature, etc. After you have sorted your entire collection once, systematically organize each pile. For example, if you sorted your books by author’s last name, grab the “A” pile and put the stack in alphabetical order. If you separated the books by genre, grab the history pile and organize the books into sub-genres (American History, Women’s history, etc.) or by author’s last name.
A: Set aside books to donate or sell. Box up the books you want to donate or sell. Complete an initial sort of your keep pile. Finalize the order of your books.
