If you hear some buzzing up in your attic you’re not going crazy and you’re not being haunted. Instead, it could be a hive of bees. Recently a bee removal expert took out a 25-pound hive from an attic with around 30,000 bees living there. Obviously, this was a situation that took some time to build up. You’re not going to get a 25-pound hive overnight. But it just goes to show you that you might not know what’s going on up in your attic unless you give it the occasional inspection.
In older Santa Cruz houses, some attics can be reached by staircase as opposed to fold down ladder. With those bigger attics there is just as much risk from infestation if you keep junk up there.

The City of Monterey has some advice with regard to watering your lawn. They suggest that grass only needs watering every five to seven days. Of course, if there is a heavy rain you can put off that watering. It’s also better to water lawns in the early morning hours to prevent evaporation. If you’re someone who turns on the garden hose and lets it run don’t forget to turn it off. That hose can pour out up to 600 gallons of water in just under an hour. Imagine that on your water bill!
It’s hard to understand a litterbug. The exact same effort it takes to toss something out of a car is the same effort it would take to toss that garbage out into a trashcan. Then there are the careless people who go out of their way to abandon things like furniture and TV in the back of an alley. These people actually have to load up their car with that junk and make the move in the dark of the night to avoid getting caught. All of this trash tossing has an impact on our environment but nowhere is more deeply felt then in the ocean. After 22 years of deep-sea video the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute has found an alarming amount of human garbage at the bottom of Monterey Bay. Forget dumping in an alley, now you’ve got people taking their trash out on a boat or at the end of a dock to get rid of it.
If you want a terrific model of eco-friendly practices look no further than the University of California Santa Cruz. The California Higher Education Sustainability Conference plans to honor the the UCSC campus next month with a 2013 Best Practice Award for improving energy efficiency at the Earth and Marine Sciences building on campus. Here’s what they did to earn this special honor: “Installed a new web-based energy management system, and fine-tuned the operation of the building through a process known as commissioning, helped staff reduce the building’s annual electricity use by 14 percent and its natural gas consumption by 20.5 percent. Those savings reduced the building’s carbon footprint by more than 300 metric tons per year, and saved enough money so that the project could pay for itself in three years.”
Businesses are getting into the eco-friendly way of doing things by advertising that they have “gone green.” Technically, you could be a company with a single recycling bin and make that claim. Does it really mean you’re doing all you can for the environment? One company who is truly eco-friendly is Junk King Monterey. To prove it, all you have to do is follow one of their trucks around.

One thing is for sure, you’re going to need to get rid of that clutter to really consider your home clean.
Does anyone still have a VCR? Sure, you might have spent years taping your favorite programs but now they’ll all available online. Do you really need to keep stacks of tapes cluttering up your living room? Even if you have some precious memories recorded on video you would be better served having that video transferred to a DVD. Once that is done you really have no excuse to hold onto that VCR. In fact, when it comes to old stereos, copiers, fax machines, computers or televisions you shouldn’t be holding onto those either. All of that stuff is considered e-waste and you should be thinking about how to get rid of it the right way. Here’s a hint: Junk King.
