MARCH HOME WARRANTY TIP: Clean or replace your HVAC
filters. You need to do this more often than once a year. A dirty
filter forces your HVAC system to work harder, which in turn drains
your wallet. It could also shorten the life of your blower motor.

Spring Cleaning
Shortcuts
Sticky Residue?
Remove sticky residue/glue with one of
these: mayonnaise, peanut butter, nail pol-
ish remover, “Goo Gone”, or any oil.
Dusting?
Reach those hard to get
corners, doorjambs, etc.
with a dry paintbrush.
Smelly Shoes?
Try putting some tea leaves
into a pair of stockings and
stuff each into a shoe. Leave for a day or
two and the smell vanishes.
Stubborn Bathtub Stains?
Try placing a mixture of cream of tartar
and hydrogen peroxide on the stain. By
the time the paste dries, the stain should
be gone.
Heel Marks?
Erasers will remove black heel marks on
floors and artgum erasers will clean bone
colored shoes.

The Clean Smell of
Spring—Lemons
There is much more to squeeze out of a
lemon than just its juice. Take a look at var-
ious ways to benefit from the lemon’s nat-
ural qualities.
l Add lemon juice to rice to prevent it from
sticking and intensify its white color.
l Try a squeeze of lemon on salads,
steamed vegetables, soups and stews in
place of salt or butter for a low-sodium,
low-fat treat.
l Mix lemon juice with white vinegar for
quick clean-ups around the house.
l Cut a lemon in half and dip it in baking
soda to scour sinks, bathtubs and cutting
boards.
l Float sliced lemons in a tub of warm
water for a refreshing and stress reducing
soak. The lemon-infused water will soften
skin, fight dandruff and strip away soap
film and excess oils.
l And before you throw out a lemon, rub it on
your nails to whiten and strengthen them.

March is American
Red Cross Month
Since WWII,every president,
including President Obama,
has designated March as
Red Cross Month.
Did You Know?
l The American Red Cross is a charitable
organization, not a government agency. It
depends on volunteers and the generosity
of people like you to perform its mission.
l An average of 91 cents
of every dollar the
American Red Cross
spends is invested in
humanitarian services
and programs.
l 10 million people learn emergency skills
such as CPR through the Red Cross every
year. Consider taking a class so you are
prepared in the event of an emergency.

St. Patrick’s Day
is March 17th
Did you know?
l Green is associated
with St. Patrick’s Day because
it is the color of spring, Ireland,
and the shamrock.
l Leprechauns are also associated with St.
Patrick’s Day, although the only reason
they are is because they’re Irish.
l People give Saint Patrick credit for chasing
all the snakes out of Ireland. The truth is
that snakes are not indigenous to Ireland.
Spring Facts
1st Day of Spring—the Vernal Equinox
In the northern half of the world, March 20th is the first day of Spring—when
day and night are each 12 hours long. This day is called the vernal equinox—
vernal means “of spring” and equinox derives from a Latin word meaning
“equal night.” It is the first day of spring north of the equator and the first day
of autumn in the southern half of the world.
It’s Only Spring Fever!
Spring fever commonly occurs with
a sudden warm spell following a long
cold period. When the temperature
rises, the body has to get rid of heat.
Dilation, or expansion of blood vessels, occurs so blood can be carried to the
body surface where heat can be lost quickly to the air. The energetic feeling
experienced is the body’s reaction to the large amount of work going on to
cope with a warming environment.
