EXTENSION SCENE,-?, by L Everette ' D.VU When we think about ^nitation, the first thing tfeat often comes to mind is the conditions in a hospital or an eating establishment We often take for granted, or don't give any thought to, just how much our daily lives are affected by sanitation conditions around us. The local Extension Ser vice serves as a source of information and education for the citizens of this county just as in every other county in North Carolina. Many citizens call the Extension Service about problems they are facing with anticipation that we can supply the necessary information to help rid them of the pro blem. Most often we can provide the information that is needed and make recom mendations on the most cost-effective methods of control, but it is interesting that often these problems stem from the tact that simple eommonsense sanita tion practices are not follow ed. Rats, mice, snakes, and lizzards will often set up their housekeeping where there is an adequate source of food and a certain amount of protection provided by trash piles, mulch around shrubbery, or extremely thick growth around the house. Moles will cause considerable damage in a lawn, but the only reason they are there is because the insect and grub problem in the soil has been ignored and this offers an excellent food source for the moles. Agricultural producers are not immune from the need to follow simple sanitation procedures, too. Often wee vil infestation in grain bins come from the fact that-the bin was not cleaned out properly after last year's grain was removed. Weed, disease, and nematode pro blems can be transported from one field to another by not properly cleaning the equipment, and equipment can begin to give a lot of unnecessary problems if it is not maintained and stored properly. Homeowners often find that when roaches or ants become a problem in the house, that there are sourees of food and water available for these pests that is not normally noticed. In this case, eradication practices will only be tem porary unless these sourees of food and water are removed. Many homeown ers will vacuum and spray for fleas and temporarily relieve this problem, but they forget to dispose of the vacuum cleaner bag, and the fleas reenter the house or eggs hatch and the problem becomes as bad as ever. Fire ants, an increasing problem in the county, will often choose a place to start their colony around piles of boards, discarded tires, or even grown-up fence rows and yard borders. Termites often start from scattered wood materials left adjacent to a house or scattered under the house. lne large amount of trash that is deposited along our roadways in the form of litter is an expensive nuisance for all of us as taxpayers. In addition to giving a negative feeling to potential busi nesses and residents, it takes a tremendous amount of labor to remove this trash from the roadways. As we think about sanitation, let us also relate to the effect that the lack of proper sanitation has on our personal safety. Anytime we allow our homes, yards, farmsteads, or our public areas to go lacking in the basic sanitation practices, we are leaving ourselves open to a possible increase in accidents. For our own well-being, as well as the well-being of our fellow citizens, let's all try to become more aware of the conditions around us that can lead to a happier, more productive lifestyle.
