Humane Mouse Trap How to Make a Humane Mouse Trap

Live Mouse Trap

A piece of an old bicycle tire and a glass fruit jar are the only materials required for making this trap.
Push one end of the tire into the hole, making sure that there is a space left at the end so that the mice can get in.
Then bend the other end down into a fruit jar or other glass jar. Bait may be placed in the jar if desired, although this is not necessary.

Sticky Jack







Came in from weeding in the garden with bits of goosegrass Galium aparine stuck to my clothes. We used to call it sticky Jack when we were kids, and lobbed handfuls of the stuff at each other on the way home from school. Its the covering of tiny hooked hairs all over the plant that act like Velco, fixing it to fabrics. The hairs on the stem are shortish and curved, but those on the leaves are like fish hooks - when you look at them under the microscope.

How to Build a Rabbit Trap

How to Make a Self-Setting Rabbit Trap

Secure a good-sized box, say, 1 ft. high, 1-1/2 ft. wide, and 3 ft. long; and to the bottom, about 10 in. from one end, fasten a 2-in. square piece, A, Fig. 1, extending the width of the box. Place a 10-in. board sloping from the end of the box to the cleat A.
Self-Setting Trap
The swing door B, Fig. 1, is made as shown in Fig. 2, which represents the back side of the door. Sheet metal or tin is cut to the proper size and tacked around the edge of the hole. This prevents the animal from gnawing its way out, also provides a way to make the hole of different sizes for squirrels or other animals. The hole in the door should be about 2 in. wide and 4 in. high for rabbits. The door is made to swing freely on two large nails driven through the sides of the box. The hole in the door being only large enough to admit a small portion of the rabbits head, the rabbit will push its way through to the bait, causing the door to swing back and up, and it will close by its own weight when the animal is inside. A small door is provided in the other end to remove the animals caught.

The advantage of this trap is that where one animal is caught others are liable to follow, and several rabbits will be trapped at a time. Then, too, the rabbits are not harmed in any way as they would be if caught in an ordinary trap.

How to Make a Paper Banger Art projects for kids

To make this harmless and loud toy – the Paper Banger, we need strong sheet of paper size 6,3 x 9,5 inches (16 x 24 cm)  (or other sheet of paper with edge ratio 2:3).

How to make paper bangers?

First fold the sheet in half along the long side to mark the middle of the sheet, and then fold the edges as shown on image A.
Again fold the paper in half, to mark the middle, and fold the edges as shown on image B and C.
Make one more fold in half (image D) and the paper banger is finished.
Grab the edge and swing as hard as you can but have in mind that there should be a slight opening between the two sides in order for air to enter and make the bang during the swing (image E).

ALLEY CROPPING DEFINITION

The land that we need for growing food is very important. We cant afford to spoil it. There are many ways in which farmers could make better use of the land and grow good crops without the help of factory-made chemicals.
If it is farmed with care, the land will go on giving us enough food to eat for thousands of years to come.
One farming method is to mix trees and crops on the same piece of land.
In Africa, this is called alley cropping. Rows of quick-growing, deep-rooted trees are planted a few yards apart, with rows of crops such as sorghum in between.
The trees help to prevent the soil from being blown or washed away. Their leaves rot and add to the humus in the soil.
Humus is made from dead plant matter. Tree shoots provide animal food and fuel for cooking. The trees and the sorghum take different nutrients from the soil, so they can grow side by side.

MY FAVOURITE SONGS AND LYRICS

1.Heaven

Heaven Lyrics

Oh - thinkin about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free

Now nothin can take you away from me
Weve been down that road before
But thats over now
You keep me comin back for more

And baby, youre all that I want
When youre lyin here in my arms
Im findin it hard to believe
Were in heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isnt too hard to see
Were in heaven

Oh - once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when youre feelin down

Yeah - nothin could change what you mean to me
Oh theres lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

And baby, youre all that I want
When youre lyin here in my arms
Im findin it hard to believe
Were in heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isnt too hard to see
Were in heaven

Ive been waitin for so long
For somethin to arrive
For love to come along

Now our dreams are comin true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah - Ill be standin there by you

And baby, youre all that I want
When youre lyin here in my arms
Im findin it hard to believe
Were in heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isnt too hard to see
Were in heaven, heaven, oooh

Youre all that I want
Youre all that I need

Were in heaven
Were in heaven
Were in heaven

2.Everything I do 

Everything I do Lyrics


Look into my eyes – you will see
What you mean to me.
Search your heart, search your soul
And when you find me there youll search no more.

Dont tell me its not worth tryin for.
You cant tell me its not worth dyin for.
You know its true:
Everything I do, I do it for you.

Look into your heart – you will find
Theres nothin there to hide.
Take me as I am, take my life.
I would give it all, I would sacrifice.

Dont tell me its not worth fightin for
I cant help it, theres nothin I want more
You know its true:
Everything I do, I do it for you, oh, yeah.

Theres no love like your love
And no other could give more love.
Theres nowhere unless youre there
All the time, all the way, yeah.

Look into your heart, baby...

Oh, you cant tell me its not worth tryin for.
I cant help it, theres nothin I want more.

Yeah, I would fight for you, Id lie for you,
Walk the wire for you, yeah, Id die for you.

You know its true:
Everything I do, oh, I do it for you.

You cant tell its not worth dying for
Ill be there
Id walk the fire for you
Id die for you
Oh, yeah.

3.Summer of 69

Summer of 69 Lyrics


I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it til my fingers bled
It was the summer of 69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard.
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
I shouldve known wed never get far

Oh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, Id always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Aint no use in complainin
When youve got a job to do
Spent my evenings down at the drive-in
And thats when I met you, yeah

Standin on your mamas porch
You told me that youd wait forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Oh, yeah.
Back in the summer of 69, oh.

Man we were killin time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin can last forever, forever, no!

And now the times are changin
Look at everything thats come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about you, wonder what went wrong

Standin on your mamas porch
You told me that itd last forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Oh, yeah.
Back in the summer of 69, oh.
It was the summer of 69, oh, yeah.
Me and my baby in 69, oh.
It was the summer, the summer, the summer of 69, yeah.


4.Back To You

Back To You Lyrics

Ive been down - Ive been beat
Ive been so tired-that I could not speak
Ive been so lost thatt I could not see
I wanted things that were out of reach
then I found you and you helped me through
and ya showed me what to do
And thats why Im comin back to you...

[Chorus:]
Like a star that guides a ship across the ocean
thats how your love will take me home back to you
And if I wish upon that star - someday Ill be where you are
I know that day is coming soon - ya, Im coming back to you.
Youve been alone, but ya did not show it
Youve been in pain, but did not know it
Let me do what I needed to - you were there when I needed you
Mighta let you down, mighta messed you round
but ya never changed your point of view
and thats why Im comin back to you...

[Repeat Chorus]

Im coming back to you
Im coming back to you
Im coming back to you
That day is coming soon

Im coming back to you
